About DXPA

DXP Analytics develops technology for market research, trading analytics, and strategy development in US equities.

Our proprietary trading platform enables traders to investigate market behavior, develop custom screening conditions, analyze intraday setups, and build repeatable trading strategies.

We are building a research-driven trading environment where market observation, data analysis, and disciplined execution come together.

The opportunity

We are looking for analytical engineering graduates who want to develop into qualified US equity intraday traders.

You do not need to be an experienced trader. We are interested in people who can observe patterns, ask good questions, analyze evidence, and develop their own understanding of market behavior.

You will work alongside other researchers and traders at our Chennai trading floor.

What you will do

- Study US equity market behavior and intraday price action.
- Use proprietary market-screening and analytical tools to investigate trading opportunities.
- Develop and test hypotheses about market patterns.
- Create custom screening conditions and strategy ideas.
- Analyze historical and live market data.
- Document research findings and trading decisions.
- Participate in structured simulated trading.
- Follow defined risk-management and trading procedures.
- Progress toward eligibility for live trading based on documented performance and applicable requirements.

What we are looking for

- B.E. / B.Tech in engineering or a related analytical discipline.
- Strong curiosity about financial markets.
- Ability to reason with data and identify patterns.
- Logical thinking and structured problem-solving.
- Willingness to learn quantitative and discretionary trading methods.
- Ability to work independently and explain your reasoning.




- Willingness to work during US market hours from our Chennai office.

Programming, Python, statistics, or personal trading experience is an advantage, but not mandatory.

Who should apply?

You may be a good fit if you:

- Enjoy investigating why something happens.
- Have built projects or conducted independent research.
- Are comfortable questioning your own assumptions.
- Want to develop a career in proprietary trading and market research.
- Understand that trading performance is uncertain and requires disciplined risk management.

Evaluation and progression

Candidates undergo a structured evaluation that includes market education, research assignments, platform training, and simulated trading.

The evaluation period may extend up to 90 days, depending on the candidate's progress and applicable program requirements.

Successful candidates may progress toward live trading subject to documented performance, risk-management standards, and the requirements of the relevant capital provider.

Progression is not guaranteed.

Compensation and transparency

This is a performance-based opportunity without a fixed salary during the evaluation period.

The applicable profit-sharing arrangement, trading rules, evaluation requirements, and progression conditions will be explained before candidates commit to the program.

Candidates should apply only if they understand and can reasonably accommodate the financial implications of a non-salaried evaluation.

Location and schedule

- On-site trading floor in Chennai.
- US equity market operating hours.
- Consistent attendance and schedule commitment required.
