JNP Capital Inc

Day trading or trading in general is one of the most difficult jobs in the world. It is known that the overwhelming majority of people failed at attempts to trade for a living. These are a few qualities in our opinion that will increase the chance of successfully becoming a trader at JNP Capital.

Ability to learn and adopt. It is estimated 70-80% volume in the US is traded by algorithms. As algorithms with machine learning capabilities dominate the market, intraday trading continues to evolve at a pace not seen before. Strategies worked before might not work anymore. All traders must keep learning and adopting to constantly changing market conditions.

Ability to control emotions under stress. Trading is a performance based job. What a trader understands in principle, might not get properly executed in real trading. A trader can get too afraid or frustrated during or after a big loss, too arrogant or careless during a big winner. So it is important for a trader to always control their own emotions, and execute around their skill level.

Ability to work with other trainees to help each other improve. This will not appear obvious to some, however communicating to other traders/trainees with similar skill levels of yours will provide a different but equally rewarding experience vs talking to your trainers.

Risk management skills
A successful trading career will have many great winners, but it is that one or two terrible losses that can derail a potentially successful career. So it is important to control your size and risk, to have a stop loss set for every trade, to not put yourself in a position where that one big loss will ruin your week/month/career.

Great work ethic. A good routine for a day trader includes the prep done before the market opens, the planning and ex*****on for every trade during the day and the review of trades after the close. It is important to trade well, but what matters is the work you put in before and after every trade.
