Cryptocurrency market maker specializing in liquidity, execution, and risk-controlled trading.
IndiaWhat I'm looking for
I’m a cryptocurrency market maker focused on liquidity provision, trade execution, and trading operations across digital asset exchanges. I concentrate on market microstructure, order flow dynamics, spread management, and risk-controlled execution to keep performance consistent in live conditions.
In my current role (Trading and Operations Analyst – Crypto Market Making, Remote, India), I operate and tune automated market-making strategies across 20+ crypto exchanges and 30+ trading pairs in spot and perpetual markets. I manage live liquidity, order book positioning, quoting parameters, and inventory rebalancing—maintaining delta-neutral exposure through hedging in external markets while monitoring funding rates and cross-exchange conditions.
Before that, I worked as a US Equities and Options Trader, trading intraday directional and volatility-based strategies using option chain signals and Options Greeks to manage risk in structured trades. Earlier, I managed a multi-asset portfolio for a US-based client and have continued building trading strategies since 2017 using technical analysis, market structure, and cross-asset research.
