The successful candidate will begin with an intensive 8-week training program in Amsterdam, which may be broken up into multiple shorter stays. During this training period, you will master proprietary execution, fitting, and post-trade analysis tools while developing a comprehensive understanding of CTC’s options trading strategies and performance metrics. You will gain expertise in NSE Nifty, single stock options, and BSE Sensex options market dynamics (among others) and liquidity patterns through supervised live trading sessions alongside senior team members.
