Interview with Convex Monster

Welcome to Alpha insights with dHEDGE top managers! We will be inviting some of our most interesting and successful managers to go into detail about themselves and their strategies.

The negative sentiment has continued in the crypto markets over these past few weeks. Most assets went down a further double digits! We can only hope with all the coming innovations and scaling coming to DeFi that this turns everything around!

Lets dive into todays interview.

Todays Alpha insights is with the legendary Convex Monster! He is consistently in the top 3 on the dHEDGE leaderboard.

Who inspires you in your investment strategies?

I don’t have any inspirations so 2 speak. I think all the great macro traders & also the individuals who mentored me early in my career could be a fair substitute.

What is the driver / what drives you in your investing strategies?

This is far too broad a question for me to answer properly here — but I use a multifaceted approach that covers both broad crypto/macro factors as well as more technical/quantitative market analysis, with some sentiment and charting thrown in for good measure. Generally I like to think about scenarios/paths that I think are mispriced by the market and how I can best position to generate alpha/returns as a result.

What is your risk management strategy?

This is also much too big a question to answer here, but I think generally speaking one place people leak a lot of EV is in position sizing and portfolio composition. Sizing is the most important aspect of trading in my opinion, and you need to take into account your strengths/weaknesses as a trader.

Have you managed funds on another platform? If so, how was your performance?

I have not.

How can other investors get in touch with you?

On twitter, on my channel on the dHEDGE discord, or replying to a post on the dHEDGE site.

Why should a potential investor invest with you?

I am a professional crypto trader fully focused on generating alpha over the long term.

Fun fact about you or about the world you’d like to share?

A species of frog known as a Wood Frog found in Alaska can hold in its urine for up to 8months.
