A supplementary ‘FX Sub PM’ without any bespoke content generation or the biases that come with it. Bringing topical FX-specific developments to attention, identifying potential trading set-ups and sharing thoughts on key levels and positioning. Perhaps useful to a rates or commodities veteran looking to up-skill in FX without direct interaction with interbank counterparts. Also relevant for RM analysts/junior PMs who are considering switching to a more activist trading role (Multi-Manager or Macro HF).

Either in the earlier stage of considering a buy-side transfer, looking for an idea-generation supplement or curious about the psychology/research takeaways as I digest/learn myself and share ad-hoc. There is a lot of AI-generated noise out there (Substack especially), so I hope to provide a credible source of alternative content.

Those at any stage of the journey who might be keen to follow my own transition from institutional to own-account money management. The institutional background may bring a slightly different dynamic or process, whilst I hope the fully transparent rationale sharing generates thought or challenge.

Looking for off-piste idea generation and client discussion points outside of the bank Strategist ecosystem. Perhaps also considering a buy-side transition without needing the sell-side trading experience.

Either curious about a career in trading/portfolio management, looking for trade idea generation in preparation for interviews and conversations, or perhaps looking to start trading themselves.

A resource for anyone considering a pivot into trading - either from within Finance or a lateral career shift - and looking for fully transparent process guidance during a transitional period.
