### An Evening of Trading Insights, Pizza, and Drinks
Join us for the next edition of our new "Talking About Bots" series — a lively evening where we explore why algorithmic trading beats manual execution, how bots are built and deployed, and what seasoned experts have learned from real-world experience.
***
### Session 1: Why You Should Always Trade with Bots (That You Trust)
Speaker: Richard Hickling (LinkedIn)
Bots don’t get tired. They don’t panic. And used well, they can outperform most retail traders—consistently.
In this talk, Richard, a Founder of ProfitView, explores why automated trading Bots have a clear structural edge over manual execution, and how professional-grade performance isn’t out of reach for individual traders.
You’ll also be introduced to the “Three + Four” framework: a practical decision-making process for Bot trading.
Forget the hype—this is a clear, real-world roadmap for trading with Bots that are aligned to your goals and market conditions.

Session 2: Fireside Chat with Robert Carver
Speaker: Robert Carver (LinkedIn)

In a relaxed Q&A-style conversation, Robert will share practical insights from his time managing billions at AHL (part of Man Group), building macro strategies, and trading exotic derivatives at Barclays — plus his current work with Stylus Capital in digital asset markets.
Expect candid, actionable discussion on what actually works in trading, and why.
