Description
At IMC we run volatility trading strategies which are separate from our usual low-latency, execution based market making strategies. We rely on macro research and historical signals to place opinionated, relative value trades on asset classes globally. IMC is successfully ramping up its volatility trading strategies. To accelerate growth we are looking to expand the team with experienced traders.
Your Core responsibilities:
- Maximize revenue by both finding, and then capitalising on short term mispricing, as well as managing larger positions
- Work closely with our best-in-class research and quant teams to analyse your results and improve your approach
- Take responsibility and ownership early to drive strategies forward and be successful
- You will be instrumental in assisting us with our strategic goal to build our options trading globally, with a focus on positional market making and relative value strategies
Your Skills and Experience:
- 4+ years of experience as a Trader at a prop trading firm / market maker managing your own book
- Prior experience of options position trading in Indian markets is good to have.
- Experience in computer programming is desirable (Python, C/C++, Java, Matlab, SQL).
- Entrepreneurial mindset, healthy risk appetite, competitive by nature and fast decision maker
- Excellent numerical and analytical skills.
