Marisol designed this course after too many conversations that treated “the market” as one thing rather than a set of mechanisms with very different failure modes. She teaches the odd-numbered weeks — market structure, trading styles, risk and position sizing, futures, crypto — where the point is usually to slow a calculation down until it stops feeling like magic.
Office hours run Tuesdays 2–4pm; email is answered within two working days outside of those. For anything about a specific piece of marked work, raise it in the session it was set in first — Idris holds the day-to-day marking questions for the sessions he teaches, and Marisol picks up anything that needs a course-level call.
