How to Survive When Trading in 24/7 Markets
Sleep no more? How will your trading strategy adjust to 24/7/365 on-chain markets? In this episode of IBKR Podcasts, host Steven Levine sits down with Adrian Reid, founder of Enlightened Stock Trading and a 20-year veteran of rules-based, systematic trading, to explore the seismic shifts reshaping today's markets.

Discover why Bitcoin's volatility is starting to resemble high-beta tech stocks, how to adapt trading systems when overnight gaps disappear, and why constant market-watching is a trap rather than an edge. Adrian shares hard-won insights on diversification across markets and asset classes, the dangers of excessive leverage, and his golden rule: you can't win the game if you're not in the game. Whether you're a systematic trader, a crypto-curious investor, or just trying to make sense of markets that increasingly never close, this conversation offers a grounded, experience-backed roadmap for navigating the new crossroads of traditional finance and digital assets.
