Channing Spencer, from George Washington University, moves one position down, being now the fourth. “I am a short to medium term swing trader primarily focused on spot equities, crypto, and options across a range of asset classes,” said Spencer. He specified that he “maps liquidity areas and used fib retracement and standard deviation measurements in coordination with public sentiment for specific assets rather than indices.” Spencer added: “I’m much more of an agnostic trader. I almost never care about mainstream market narratives, but rather seek out favorable risk/reward opportunities based solely on price activity and do business at extremities with a managed contrarian mindset.” Duke FinTech student, Shunxin Zhang, continues to hold the fifth position in competition’s top ten.
