The reason I like quantitative investing is this:
It helps me make money. It’s smarter and more disciplined than I am, and it runs 24/7. It makes money based on probabilities, not feelings, and it can backtest any portfolio I want to build.
I’ve found that I’m gradually becoming more drawn to strategies with lower volatility. I like the comfort of steady returns. Even though I know using leverage could bring in greater returns, I don’t want to choose that route, because strategies can stop working, and returns always come with risk.
