Hey everyone am I engineer who works at a fintech startup , my company is into **F&O trading** and they mostly do algorithmic trading meaning we design the technical layer of the strategy to trade on the market .
Since my company is just a startup they do not consider them self as Market makers and trade like an retails guys but with a huge cash \~50+cr daily .
My question was that I was learning about trading and strategy of my own into F&O and got stumble upon on a article from SEBI . It stated that 99% of the retails investors loose money into F&O but my company typically profits on every single day !
Point is by looking on my companies daily trade activities and my own concept understand I never thought of loosing money could possible in this market if someone have well knowledge about how market works . And the SEBI article just question my inner side that who are this 99% people ? I have never seen them anywhere , so can someone experience could enlighten me on this ? like who are they 99% ? and is this mean that my firm is amongst the 1% ?
