Experienced Trader

DV Trading LLC
Chicago, IL Full Time
POSTED ON 8/31/2026
AVAILABLE BEFORE 11/10/2026
About Us:

Founded more than 15 years ago and headquartered in Chicago, the DV Group of financial services firms has grown to more than 450 people operating throughout North America, Europe, the Middle East and Asia. Since spinning out of a large brokerage firm in 2016, DV Trading has rapidly scaled as an independent proprietary trading firm utilizing its own capital, trading strategies, and risk management methodologies to provide liquidity to worldwide financial markets and hedging opportunities to commodity producers and users. Now, DV group affiliates include two broker dealers, a cryptocurrency market making firm, and a bourgeoning investment adviser.

Overview:

For this very specific role, DV Trading is actively seeking to hire solely experienced traders or trading teams who have recent, relevant, successful strategies with a proven record of success. The only applications that will be considered for this role are ones coming from reputed prop firms, pod shops, or hedge funds, but please bear in mind, returns must be prop-like in nature. Also, while we love speaking with Forex traders, Mr TopStep and other funded traders, respectfully this type of trade activity doesn't qualify for this role, so please bear that in mind as you contemplate applying.

  • UPDATE*** DV Trading is experiencing rapid positive change, we like to think by the day. We are always trying to align ourselves with the best trading minds on the street. DV, and any successful proprietary trading firm, for matter, must have a DNA comprised of not just highly competitive people, but ones of the highest moral character. This cannot be overstated. If this is you, please apply! I/we will look forward to connecting with you and exploring possibilities!

Requirements:

  • Minimum 5 years of working experience within a proprietary trading firm or pod shop
  • At least 2 years in a risk taking role
  • Ability to clearly articulate your strategy as well as provide validation
  • Accountability for own actions
  • Possessor of high moral character and integrity

DV is not accepting unsolicited resumes from search firms. Only search firms with valid, written agreements with DV should submit resumes in response to DV's posted positions. All resumes submitted by search firms to DV via e-mail, the Internet, personal delivery, facsimile, or any other method without a valid written agreement shall be deemed the sole property of DV, and no fee will be paid in the event the candidate is hired by DV. DV is proud to be an equal opportunity employer and committed to creating an inclusive environment for all employees.
