PROPRIETARY TRADING FIRM | IRELAND CROATIA SPAIN US UK
WE TURN BRIGHT MINDS
INTO SUCCESSFUL TRADERS
We recruit talented people, train them to trade, and back them with our capital.
START YOUR CAREER
WE RECRUIT HIGH PERFORMERS. We hire just 3–4 from every 100–150 applicants, looking for excellence in academics, sports, games or other competitive pursuits. No experience or capital required. This is a paid position with extensive training, mentorship and time to develop. It’s a difficult career. We provide every opportunity, but you bring the hard work, passion and ability.
EXPERIENCED TRADERS
TAKE YOUR TRADING TO THE NEXT LEVEL. We’ve helped traders grow from six-figure to seven-figure annual P&L. More capital, greater size, flexibility and experienced risk management. Join a floor of profitable traders who share ideas, challenge each other and develop new edges. You trade independently, but you’re part of a team. If you prefer isolation, we’re probably not for you.
THE TRADING FLOOR
SURROUNDED BY PEOPLE WHO MAKE YOU BETTER. Trade alongside experienced, profitable traders who share ideas, develop tools and solve problems together. Learn from each other’s successes and mistakes. Everyone trades their own book, but everyone benefits from the knowledge and experience of the floor.
WHAT WE BELIEVE
WHAT WE ARE. AND WHAT WE AREN’T. We’re not a trading school, funded-account challenge or shortcut to wealth. We don’t sell courses or reward reckless risk-taking. We value discipline, independent thinking, intellectual honesty and consistency over ego and short-term results. We’re building careers, not gamblers.

Common Questions
Working with Us.
Experienced Traders
Experienced traders with a demonstrable live track record apply directly via the Experienced Trader application. We review every submission. Traders who meet our threshold are brought in for a direct conversation about allocation, risk parameters and how a long-term arrangement with Positive works.
We look for an average monthly net P&L of €5,000 or above across the past 12 months, verified through a track record submission. Below that level, the right starting point is the Trainee Trader Analyst Programme — which is a full-time paid position in its own right.
Experienced traders at Positive receive firm capital, ongoing risk management oversight, mentorship from senior traders and full access to our infrastructure — data feeds, platforms, connectivity and the trading floor. 95% of traders who reach experienced level at Positive stay in their career.
Every role at Positive Equity — from Trainee Trader Analyst through to Experienced Trader — is a full-time, professional position. This is a career, not a part-time engagement.
Internship & Trainee Analyst
The Summer Internship runs in June and August. It is the entry point to Positive Equity — a structured introduction to futures markets, risk management and life on the trading floor. Completing the internship is the mandatory first step toward joining the full-time Trainee Trader Analyst Programme.
Applications are open to university students at any stage of their studies, as well as recent graduates. We do not require a finance background. We are looking for analytical thinking, competitive drive and a genuine interest in building a long-term career in the markets. Strong maths is essential.
The programme covers markets, instruments, risk management, trade mechanics, data analysis and the psychological disciplines that underpin consistent performance. Training is led by experienced traders on the floor. The pace is set by performance, not time.
All full-time positions at Positive Equity are paid roles with profit share and performance bonuses. There is no ceiling on earnings for traders who consistently perform.
Take the Next Step
Your Seat on the Floor.
We take on a limited number of new traders each year. If you have the discipline, the drive and the desire to build a career in the markets — start your career in the markets with Positive.
Applications open for June and August intakes. Limited positions available annually.
