Trade GPT: AI and Innovation in Trading Technology
The latest breakthroughs in generative AI have taken the world by storm, and the world of trading is no exception. With AI taking the media and world by storm seemingly overnight, it’s natural that this trend be covered at length at FMAS:
This includes one of the event’s most hyped panels this May, Trade GPT: AI and Innovation in Trading Technology, taking place on May 10, 14:00-14:40 at Centre Stage.
In this session, seasoned experts will share the impact they see on the industry, and reveal the tools, features, and platforms they are building to make brokers and clients prosper. This panel for FMAS:23 will include the following talented speakers:
- Wassim Khateeb, Chief Commercial Officer, FXCUBIC
- Yakubu Teri Ishaku, CEO/ Founder, Kwakol Markets
- Ran Strauss, Founder & CEO, Leverate
- Cristian Vlasceanu, CEO, Centroid Solutions
- (Moderator) Ankit Shah, Global Head of Fintech, GTN
According to Mr Khateeb: “I believe it is a very hot topic these days following the rapid emergence of AI softwares and we will be discussing the implications it can have on Financial trading.”
Indeed, “with the evolution of the ‘GPT’ side of AI, democratising AI driven trading models to investors / traders can be a game changer. There will initially be some fear followed by errors and then stabilisation before eventually acceptance and integration. We have a long way to go, but this is the direction the trading world is moving towards, and it will only get more interesting from here,” explained Mr Shah.
The panelists will also look to answer the following questions: What chat GPT3 and 4 can, and cannot, do for traders and industry participants? How can fintech firms utilize the new AIs to increase efficiency? What has been achieved in automation and what is yet to come? Which trends will define 2024 in retail trading?
“In today’s fast paced financial markets, AI brings many new opportunities and advantages that empower investors and traders, by automating solutions for brokers. Brokers should empower their traders by integrating with a provider that offer the most advanced AI trading features, so that on their website or mobile app, they can make more informed decisions, reduce their risks, speed up their response time, and increase profitability,” noted Mr Strauss ahead of the event.
