Our trading is diverse—across asset classes and instruments, using our own models and systems—and it’s this diversification that sets us apart.

Though we’ve grown to more than 800 exceptional people in six cities around the world, we have the spirit of a start-up and a constant focus on results.
Our employees work hard to solve interesting problems, and their results are rewarded. We value continuous learning—from our outcomes, from the environment and from each other. It’s a place of high expectations, deep curiosity, and constant collaboration, with some of the smartest, most passionate people you’ll meet.
