About Us
Alexandros Spanos is the Chief Executive Officer and founder of ‘’The Greek Traders’’ trading community. Alexandros took his first trade at the age of 19 with his raised capital from his professional career as a basketball player. He played at the highest level in Greece, continuing in European clubs including a Euroleague club and he was also a member of all the youth national basketball teams of Greece. A serious injury of a torn ACL led him to his “second love” the trading and investing. Dedicating the same passion and work ethic like he had done in sports, he managed to stand out as he completed his Bachelor with honors degree from Athens University of Economics and Business Administration in Accounting and Business Administration. One year later he accomplished his Master with honors degree in Portfolio and Risk management from Athens University of Economics and Business also, winning at the same time a scholarship for CFA (Chartered Financial Analyst). His Master thesis “Reconstruction of the value function of financial products through deep learning applications” produced top-notch content as it tried to use ANNs (Artificial Neural Networks) and deep learning to regenerate Black-Scholes formula for option pricing. Nowadays he is considered as an experienced Financial Analyst with a demonstrated history of working in various positions in the financial services sector, for more than a decade, such as Fixed Income trading desks, the investment management and banking industry and prop trading industry. During his free time he loves sharing his experience and knowledge to help new traders with their journey to financial freedom.

It’s the first team which I found on the internet to have such a deep knowledge not only in technical analysis but in fundamental analysis also! As I read on their site they all have Msc in finance and in economics and that helps a lot when it’s coming to trading decisions and explain them to you!
