What this assessment looks like
The trading-floor interview classic: quote a two-sided market on an uncertain quantity, get filled, manage the position as information arrives, and explain your reasoning while someone trades against you.
- Setting a bid-ask spread that reflects your uncertainty
- Updating quotes after a fill (adverse selection - the person who traded knows something)
- Inventory management: skewing quotes to flatten a position
- Hedging exposure rather than just accumulating it
Train it here
- Market Maker - Quote spreads, take fills, and manage inventory against informed flow.
- Basket Arbitrage - Spot mispricings between a basket and its components before they close.
- Delta Defender - Keep a book hedged as the underlying moves - free to play.
