Proprietary trading firms generate profits from short-term transactions in financial markets (trading) by applying various trading strategies and using only their own capital. We do not provide brokerage services, asset management services, or attract funds from the general public, external investors, or traders.
Trading is an active market participation strategy aimed at generating short-term profits. The primary goal of trading is to buy and sell financial assets to profit from price fluctuations over a short period (ranging from a few seconds to several days).
Our company primarily focuses on trading derivatives (futures, options, etc.), but we also work with stocks, currencies, and other instruments. There are many different trading strategies in financial markets, which vary based on trade frequency, entry and exit methods, holding timeframes, profit extraction techniques, and instruments used. Some examples include:
- Algorithmic trading and HFT
- Market making
- Arbitrage
- Scalping
- Day trading
- Swing trading
- Options trading
- And others
What We Do
Our trading department is responsible for:
- Developing various trading strategies
- Creating algorithms and automating trading strategies
- Testing trading strategies
- Executing trades on exchanges
- Generating trading ideas
- Collaborating with other departments (analytics, risk management, IT, etc.)
The trading department is the company’s key division, generating the majority of its profits. Most proprietary trading firms aim to expand the range of trading strategies used while maintaining efficient capital utilization. Essentially, our business revolves around finding exceptional traders who will trade in financial markets using our capital and generate profits for the firm in accordance with our risk management system.
Every modern proprietary trading firm strives for automation and the advancement of algorithmic trading, which is one of our core business priorities. Unlike many industries where artificial intelligence is only beginning to be implemented, it has been used in the trading and investment industry for decades and serves as the foundation of algorithmic trading.
