Financial Backing

Belvedere Trading is a leading proprietary trading firm with offices in Chicago, New York, Boulder, and Singapore. Our traders work hard to provide liquidity to the market through their market-making activities and are the masters of a diverse set of commodities, interest rates, exchange-traded funds (ETF), and equity index options. From the beginning, we began iteratively investing in our proprietary technology and committing to building our systems from the ground up. Our trading models and software systems are continually re-engineered, optimized, and maintained to stay on top of the industry. We operate best within a team environment where we challenge each other to deliver value consistently and share in the success of the company.

Belvedere Trading offers customizable financial backing packages for experienced traders who wish to manage their own products but with the benefits of operating within a large, established trading firm. We are seeking traders, or teams of traders, with proven strategies that may benefit from our technologies and economies of scale. 

The ideal candidate(s) will have a strong track record, a drive to succeed, and the ability to grow a desk around their core competencies.
