Quadrature Capital

Quadrature Capital is a systematic trading firm founded by programmers in 2010. It analyses very large volumes of structured and unstructured data and trades through fully automated systems, using its own capital.

What Quadrature Capital offers

• Automated trading — proprietary systems that place trades without human intervention.
• Quantitative research — data and academic work that feed the trading models.
• Technology development — in-house engineering with a goal of automating its own operations.

Who it works with

The firm trades for itself rather than serving outside clients. It recruits computer scientists, engineers and mathematicians, many from technology companies and financial firms.
