What I'm looking for

I’m looking to grow in proprietary/index-derivatives trading where disciplined risk, structured post-trade review, and data-driven decision-making are non-negotiable—and where continuous improvement and mentoring are part of daily operations.

I’m a Chartered Accountant who brings rigorous financial thinking to trading. At Lovelock and Lewes LLP (PwC), I handled statutory and tax audits and worked on Ind AS transitions, including complex derivative accounting such as cross-currency interest rate swaps and forward contracts.

Today, I run a proprietary trading book at Peri Capital focused on ES/NQ and index derivatives, using market profile and delta order-flow to trade intraday momentum and mean-reversion structures. With disciplined risk limits, I produce regular post-trade reviews and trading summaries to improve win rate and reduce drawdowns, and I’ve also supported continuous improvement as a junior trader teammate at Apteros Trading Inc.
