Job Description
We are seeking a high-performing, analytical, and disciplined Advanced Forex Trader to join our proprietary trading desk/asset management team. In this role, you will manage institutional-grade capital, execute sophisticated multi-timeframe strategies across major and exotic currency pairs, and actively manage risk in fast-moving global markets.
The ideal candidate possesses a proven track record of consistent profitability, advanced knowledge of macroeconomic fundamentals, and mastery over quantitative or technical price action models.
Key Responsibilities
- Capital Management: Manage and scale allocated proprietary accounts while strictly adhering to maximum drawdown and risk-to-reward parameters.
- Strategy Execution: Develop, backtest, and deploy advanced trading methodologies (e.g., algorithmic execution, quantitative arbitrage, macro-driven swing trading, or high-probability institutional price action).
- Macro Analysis: Monitor global central bank policies (interest rate decisions, quantitative easing/tightening), geopolitical events, and economic indicators (CPI, NFP, GDP) to anticipate market shifts.
- Risk Management: Implement dynamic position sizing, hedging strategies, and strict stop-loss protocols to protect portfolio capital against extreme volatility.
- Trade Journaling & Analytics: Maintain detailed records of all executed trades, analyzing win rates, expectancy, Sharpe ratios, and behavioral metrics to continuously optimize performance.
- Collaboration: Work alongside risk officers, quantitative analysts, and fellow traders to share market insights and refine desk strategies.
Requirements & Qualifications
- Experience: Minimum 3–5+ years of demonstrable, profitable trading experience in the Spot FX market, either prop trading, fund management, or verified independent trading.
- Track Record: Verifiable audited track record (e.g., Myfxbook, broker statements, or performance reports) demonstrating consistent positive returns and controlled drawdowns over a multi-year period.
- Technical & Fundamental Mastery: Deep understanding of intermarket correlations (USD index, bonds, commodities), order flow, liquidity pools, and advanced technical charting.
- Platform Proficiency: Expert-level proficiency with major trading terminals (MetaTrader 4/5, cTrader, TradingView, or proprietary institutional platforms like Bloomberg Terminal or EMS).
- Psychological Discipline: Exceptional emotional control, resilience under pressure, and strict adherence to a trading plan without succumbing to revenge trading or FOMO.
- Education: Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Economics, Mathematics, Computer Science, or a related quantitative field (or equivalent professional experience).
What We Offer
- Competitive Capital Allocation: Access to substantial trading capital with scaling plans based on performance.
- Profit Split: Highly competitive performance-based compensation model with lucrative profit-sharing splits.
- Advanced Infrastructure: Ultra-low latency execution, institutional liquidity providers, and professional-grade charting tools.
- Continuous Growth: A collaborative environment surrounded by elite traders, macro analysts, and risk managers.
