Junior Trader Jobs

Junior Trader

All Options is a specialized proprietary trading firm based in Amsterdam (the Netherlands) and Austin (Texas), founded in 1998. We are fully regulated and trade our own capital as a liquidity provider (market maker) on all major European option exchanges. We are opening an office in Austin to trade major US options markets.

Our culture is straight-forward, professional, and informal. We are inherently curious and believe actions speak louder than words. We make decisions based on data. Our values: we learn and improve every day; we share our ideas; we own our jobs; we play as a team.

As a Junior Trader you are responsible for pricing and trading options of listed financial instruments, as well as managing and optimizing your daily positions. Together with the trading team and software developers, you will be adjusting your pricing variables and system settings to the current market conditions. By constantly following the market you should be able to spot and research profitable opportunities. You will start with six months of extensive training, learning both advanced theory and market making practice on-the-job. The first 4 weeks you begin with learning all ins and outs of option theory, the trading systems/tools and performing trade analyses. After 4 weeks you will put that knowledge into practice and start trading on a limited portfolio under close supervision, with ongoing coaching, training and monitoring.

The next class of aspired Junior Traders will start in October 2023.
