Who Was in the Room at Stocktoberfest 2026: Traders, Creators, Executives, and the Partners Behind the Event

Stocktoberfest presented by Tradr ETFs, Stocktwits’ flagship annual event held in New York City from October 5 to 7, was designed around a simple idea: put the right people in the same room and let the conversations happen. More than 350 ticketed guests attended, including 40 financial creators with a combined audience of more than 11 million followers.

Stocktwits built the guest list around five groups that rarely share a stage: top traders and Chartered Market Technicians; public company executives, including CEOs, CFOs, and investor relations leads; data and information providers building the infrastructure behind trading decisions; registered investment advisors and retail analysts; and the financial content creators driving retail investor engagement across social platforms and emerging financial media.

Attendees and speakers came from firms across the investing ecosystem, including Webull, Two Sigma, Cantor Fitzgerald, DraftKings, Cboe, Public, and State Street Investment Management.

The October 7 programming at City Winery reflected that mix. Brokerage and trading infrastructure leaders included Anthony Denier, US CEO of Webull; Jack Keating, CEO of Webull Tech US; and Nadia Asoyan, CFO of Alpaca. Company executives on the investor relations and small-cap panels included Phil De Sousa, CFO of Voyager Technologies; Paul Prager, Co-Founder and CEO of TeraWulf Inc.; Linda Montgomery, VP of Corporate Development at ZenaTech; and Anupam Ghildyal, CGO of REalloys.

Creators and advisors were well represented, with Chris Camillo of DumbMoney.TV, Samantha LaDuc of LaDucTrading.com, Douglas Boneparth of Bone Fide Wealth, and Gautam Shah of Eras Capital. Investment and market-structure voices included Barry Ritholtz of Ritholtz Wealth Management, Ted Seides of Capital Allocators, Ben Hunt, and Michael Parekh. Stocktwits Founder and CEO Howard Lindzon hosted throughout the day.

Many of the event’s partners did more than sponsor. Tradr ETFs, the event’s Title Partner, was represented on the Leveraged & Inverse ETFs panel by Matt Markiewicz, Head of Product and Capital Markets, alongside Bilal Little, Global ETF Strategist at fellow partner Direxion. Nasdaq Private Market COO Andrew Krochulick led a fireside chat on private markets, and Secfi CEO and Founder Frederik Mijnhardt led one on late-stage private valuations. Partners Alpaca, Voyager Technologies, ZenaTech, REalloys, and Rothschild Wealth Partners also had executives on stage.

Stocktoberfest 2026 was presented by Title Partner Tradr ETFs. Supporting partners were Nasdaq Private Market, MicroSectors, Direxion, ZenaTech, REalloys, IBN, Voyager Technologies, Secfi, and Accutron. On-site partners were Alpaca, Maxim Group, ArcStone, Carbon Arc, Lowenstein Sandler, Rothschild Wealth Partners, and VanEck.

Stocktwits thanks each partner for helping bring together the traders, creators, and executives who make the Stocktwits community what it is.

They also depend on communications links connecting platforms with operators, onboard control systems that execute mission instructions, and reliable data that supports decision-making. These […]
