Quantex Trading Systems is a proprietary trading technology firm in Cayman Enterprise City. We develop QTX, our own platform for market data, research and intraday execution, and use it every session to trade futures for capital we control. No clients, no outside money, no product to sell: the platform exists to make our own trading better.
We study how CME index and energy futures behave inside the session: where liquidity sits, how the open and the close differ, which setups repeat and which only look like they do. Ideas become rules, rules get tested on our own data, and only what survives reaches the desk.
QTX is written in-house: live and historical data, charting with our own indicators and level detection, a trade journal, risk controls and order routing. Because we are the only users, we can change it the same day a trader asks.
We trade E-mini S&P 500 and WTI crude oil futures intraday, with E-mini Nasdaq-100, E-mini Dow and gold next. Every position is closed before the session ends. We are flat overnight, every night, by rule.
QTX covers the whole working day of the desk. Before the open it loads the session's levels and the overnight range. During the session it streams data, charts, and the desk dashboard: fills, open risk, realised profit and loss, and each trader's statistics. At the close it enforces the flat rule, writes the journal and produces the day's review.
The system is built and maintained by our own team. It is not licensed to third parties and there is no public access, which lets us build exactly what we need rather than what a market would buy.
We trade the group's own capital, held by our affiliate 7M Capital Management, and we have no clients. The desk is small by design: three people, one platform, one set of rules.
Intraday only. Position limits set before the open. Flat at the close. Every trade journalled and reviewed the same day.
Chartered Professional Accountant. Founder and former majority owner of the Arctic Group International oilfield services group, which he built and ran for twenty years before selling his majority stake. Responsible for compliance, finance and governance. Resident in the Cayman Islands.
Chief Operating Officer of Arctic Group International since 2006 and a continuing shareholder. Nearly two decades of hands-on futures trading. Designs the strategies, leads development of QTX and runs the desk. Resident in the Cayman Islands.
We are a small team and we intend to grow it carefully, one person at a time. Two kinds of people interest us. Traders who already trade index or energy futures intraday, discretionary or systematic, and can show us a track record, however modest. And developers who have built real-time data, charting or execution systems and want to work on one where the users sit at the next desk.
We work from George Town, Grand Cayman, and have taken on remote contractors where it suits both sides. If that sounds like you, write to us. Tell us what you have traded or built and what you would do with a platform you could change yourself. We read everything and reply to anyone who is serious.
