What It's Like Building a Proprietary Power Trading Firm with Cory Paddock Cory Paddock (Cory Paddock) has been trading the physical power grid since the early 2000s. He built his own firm from scratch in 2014 — trading his own capital — and has navigated every major paradigm shift in U.S. energy markets since coal dominated the grid. "It's the perfect amount of darkness. The information is public — but it's in the dark." We cover: - How Cory built a point of view on paradigm shifts before the market caught up - Why power trading sits at the intersection of economics & physics — and why that matters for edge - Why backtesting more than a few years of power data is basically useless — the grid isn't the same grid - LMP & locational marginal pricing: how physical grid constraints turn into alpha if you know where to look - The 5–10 trades that make your year — and why forcing setups in the lean periods kills you - How GBE stripped pay uncertainty out of trader comp so people can just focus on trading well - What it actually feels like watching your own money swing in real-time — and when it stops feeling that way Thanks so much Cory for coming on Odds on Open! Timestamps: 00:00 Intro 01:09 Starting GBE and finding trading edge 01:38 Overview of electricity markets and pricing 02:05 Power trading structure and deregulated markets 04:11 Research pipeline for market data analysis 04:56 Domain knowledge and renewable energy trading 06:39 LLMs and AI tools for quants 07:49 Grid data and intraday market signals 09:25 Finding alpha in electricity markets 10:13 Paradigm shifts and regime change insights 13:19 Coal to gas, wind, and solar trends 14:39 Data centers, EVs, and load growth 16:47 Recruiting talent in energy trading firms 17:38 Gen Z quants and algorithmic trading skills 21:55 Outliers, agency, and Gen Z traders 24:11 Culture and innovation in quant finance 27:29 Trading personal capital and risk management 28:06 PJM West Hub and market dynamics 32:19 Five-minute tick data and volatility 34:49 High-conviction trades and alpha generation 35:35 Incentive alignment and trader performance 36:42 Pay structure and removing stress capital 39:22 Motivation and purpose in trading careers 40:00 Passing knowledge to the next generation 42:04 Host reflections on electricity trading 42:14 Closing thoughts and sign-off

Ex-Global Trading & Risk Director at Cargill on how edge is formed in commodities markets Kristine Engman spent 20+ years at Cargill—one of America's largest agriculture conglomerates—trading billions in physical & financial commodities across energy & agriculture. "Edge in commodities? It's a lot about relationships. The intel you get through those relationships—that's information not readily accessible to the rest of the marketplace that can give you an edge." We cover: - How edge actually works in commodities—relationships, capital access & information arbitrage - Why you can trade on "insider information" in commodities (unlike equities) - Managing physical risk—forecast accuracy, weather shocks & transportation nightmares - The negative power trade—selling electricity below zero & getting hauled into the boss's office - Why Cargill traders performed best when equities markets performed worst - Quantitative (and even technical) vs fundamental trading styles—finding what works & sticking to it - The Ukraine war position—going extended limit long before the invasion - Life lessons from trading—"have your house in order" & taking risks with incomplete information Timestamps: 00:00 Intro 01:15 Edge in commodities trading?
