Hi, I'm Niko.
I make The Money Loop, a YouTube channel of short animated episodes that each take one idea from quantitative finance and make it click.
I built this site so the ideas don't stop when the video ends. Every lesson comes with a simulation you can play with, and the investment simulator lets you test them on real market history with paper money.

Why I started The Money Loop
Markets are just probability in motion. Once you can see the math, you can start to play the game. Most explanations of finance either skip the math or bury it, and I wanted something in between: the real ideas, made visual.
What I'm exploring next
New episodes land on the channel first, then become lessons and simulations here. If there's a topic you want me to cover, tell me with the feedback button on any page.
How the site works
The name is the method. Every concept runs a loop: learn it, see it, play with it, apply it, then teach it back.
- 1Lessons
Every episode becomes a lesson with its key ideas, a searchable transcript and a quick check.
- 2The lab
Simulations you can change, from compound interest to option pricing, with the math shown alongside.
- 3Investment simulator
Build a portfolio with paper money and replay it through real market history since 2005.

A friendly AI tutor for any question about quant or personal finance.
Everything here is educational. The simulators use virtual money, and nothing on the site is personalized financial advice.
