We have been trading on exchanges since 2005 and are now a global proprietary trading firm (investment company).
A proprietary trading firm is a company that trades financial instruments such as stocks, options, futures, currencies, and others using only its own capital. The primary goal of proprietary trading firms is to generate profits in financial markets by utilizing various trading strategies and methods.
In other words, we hire traders who manage our capital under the supervision of our risk management system. In our operations, we use a variety of methods and strategies, including algorithmic trading, day trading, swing trading, options trading, and more. We work with almost all financial instruments, including derivatives (futures, options, etc.), stocks, currencies, and cryptocurrencies. In addition to active trading, we allocate a portion of our profits to long-term investment strategies.
One of our top traders and the founder of the company, known as DIMA SILVERHOOF, conducted an experiment in which he publicly demonstrated a return of +10,327.48% across 214 trades over the course of 57 trading days, increasing the initial deposit by more than 100 times. The goal of the experiment was to prove that with the right knowledge, skills, and discipline, it is possible to succeed even when starting with a very small amount—just $100, an amount accessible to almost anyone. Additionally, we aimed to show that earning from trading is not about random profits from a few lucky trades, but rather the result of systematic work where consistent profits are generated by many regular trades.

We do not provide brokerage services or asset management services, meaning we do not accept funds from the general public. Our core business is managing the company’s own capital.
Alongside our main activities, we also offer several services to other financial market participants, including:
- Analytics and research
- Risk management consulting
- Development of risk management systems
- Consulting on various financial market-related topics
- Development of technological solutions for market participants
- Training in trading and investing
- Information services
A modern proprietary trading firm is essentially a technology company that develops trading algorithms to analyze financial markets and execute trades on exchanges. While artificial intelligence is just beginning to be implemented in many industries, it has been used in the investment industry for decades. For many years, investment banks, hedge funds, and proprietary trading firms have been trading not only manually but also through algorithmic systems. As a result, developing our algorithmic trading division is one of our key priorities.
Currently, our trading division includes both manual traders and algorithmic traders who develop proprietary trading software.
In addition to our trading department, our company has several other divisions:
- Analytics Department – Conducts financial market analysis, identifies trading and investment opportunities, and develops trading signals for traders. This division also provides market analysis and information services to external clients.
- Risk Management and Capital Management Department – Develops risk strategies, manages risks, monitors trader compliance with risk limits, allocates capital among traders and strategies, and sets capital usage restrictions.
- IT Department – Develops and improves technological solutions, including software for risk management, market analysis, trade execution, and more.
- Training Center (Education Department) – Develops training programs and courses, providing education both for company employees and anyone interested in trading, investing, and finance.
- HR Department – Focuses on hiring employees and identifying outstanding talents in trading.
- Other departments that support the overall operation of the company.
Where Do We Get Capital for Trading?
We have been trading in financial markets for over 20 years and have built a solid capital base as traders, which we now use to expand our proprietary trading business. Alongside our trading activities, we have also founded and developed businesses in various countries and industries, including information technology, real estate and development, services, and more. Today, we successfully operate in multiple countries, largely thanks to our deep financial market experience, strong economic insights, and risk management expertise.
Therefore, we fund the development of our proprietary trading business through both trading profits and income from our other business ventures.
