Is Jump Trading a tier-1 trading company like HRT, JS, Citadel? Or is it more so 1.5 or 2? #hft #trading #finance
Sold most of my nvidia shares last year to do options trading on stocks like Nvidia and spy and lost 50k in 2022 and 120k in 2023. If I just held onto nvidia shares I would have been up 600k atleast. There is no get rich scheme through options , you just have to hold shares. F*** options trading ...Read more
Having worked in finance and on Wall Street in 2000, 2008, and now 2023, I can say this time will be much worse. What is funny but sad is seeing all those on social media saying, “it won't be so bad.” Thirty public banks have halted stock trading as of today, and bank runs are only just beginning. ...Read more
Any info on types of questions one could expect for a full stack dev role at HRT? Sparse information online. Passed OA, starting phone screen but also curious about on sites. From older posts, all I could gather is the initial phone screen is heavy on Python/React specific knowledge. TC: 165 #tec...Read more

What’s the deal with HRT? I feel this company is overrated. Before you trolls and flakes start your thing - let me say this… I like the company but I just don’t feel it’s in the same league as Jump, Jane Street, DE Shaw, etc. I’ve witnessed smarter talent at Google and FB. They have a great reputa...Read more
Are you using code to do high frequency trading? What tools, Appis or brokerage account would you recommend?
I actively started trading options over a month ago. I spend a couple of hours every day researching stocks and understand their social sentiment values and determine the swing by looking at charts. So far I have made successful calls. I am not a financial advisor nor do I sell courses lol. PLTR, ...Read more

I have been trading successfully for many years and would like access to more capital as an independent prop trader. Anybody doing this as a side gig? What are reputable prop firms? Not looking for full time employment like Jane Street, HRT, etc.
Any good books specific to LEAPs trading? I think this is one of the best strategies and I have made quite a bit of money through it. I want to gain more technical fundamental knowledge on this subject- looking for resources. TC: 320k

Has anyone been successful in making consistent side income day trading stock as a side hustle? There is a lot of opportunity to do intra day swing trade like ARM, NVDIA, etc and make a quick 1 -2 % return. Stop loss will help prevent losses. TC 350k
Hey folks, I received an offer from Jump Trading for the core development team recently. It has not been overly good from my perspective compared to what I have at SAP or other options that might materialize quite soon. Base 95k GBP, 10k first year guaranteed bonus for Bristol, not London. It ha...Read more
I have been working at a mid tier company 8 YOE, TC $200k. (Not on what it shows in my profile).

Very high win ...Read more
