@miguelescobarsaldarr
Results-driven client account manager focused on algorithmic trading operations and high-precision financial analysis.
What I'm looking for
I’m a results-driven, detail-oriented professional with 3+ years of experience in trading and financial market analysis, combining quantitative methods with real-world operational discipline. My background includes market analysis, quantitative methods, and trading systems, with advanced proficiency in NinjaTrader, MetaTrader, and TradingView.
I’ve translated analytical strength into consistent execution and performance: advanced order execution (limit, stop, and market orders) while adhering to strict risk management rules, plus a strong grasp of market structure and price action for precise, error-free trading. I also bring portfolio strategy experience and the ability to monitor execution and performance under real time constraints.
Beyond trading, I’ve owned operational outcomes at scale—supervising over 2,000 logistics transactions in 13 months—while maintaining efficiency, compliance, and quality KPIs. I manage P&L visibility per shipment, balance cost and revenue to optimize profitability, and coordinate end-to-end workflows from carrier sourcing to delivery; I thrive in environments where precision, profitability, and continuous improvement are non-negotiable.
