Job Description

We are looking for an experienced PJM Power Trader to join a remote proprietary trading platform, with a focus on PJM Virtuals, Point-to-Point and Short-Term FTRs.



About the Role


This is an opportunity for a trader with a proven track record who understands how to maximize returns while minimizing downside risk through a credit-efficient trading strategy.


Responsibilities


  • PJM Virtuals
  • Point-to-Point
  • Short-Term FTRs
  • Congestion and market analysis
  • Short-term trading strategies

  • Daily trading performance by market and product, preferably covering the last 2 years, in Excel format

  • Maximum two-day drawdown and maximum overall drawdown
  • Any commercial software, data feeds or other tools required to execute your strategy

  • Sortino Ratio
  • Consistent equity curves
  • Downside risk management
  • Controlled drawdowns
  • Efficient credit utilization
  • Repeatable and clearly defined trading strategies


Preferred Skills
