Help ! Resume dilemma

Backstory: Straight out of my graduation I started in trading role given it's a relatively small firm - inclusive of sales dealing with clients for first 6 months. As I was making good numbers, I shifted to research and trading and managing my own book/trades.Atm, I'm aiming for S&T (trading tbh) role at some BB and/or (quant) trading firms given there I will be able to generate more returns due to more capital to trade with as I feel am just missing out on easy money.So, I need your help/advice on how should I quantify my role or achievements in a resume. Should I mention total PnL, or profit/return percentage, or is there any better way to reflect this?

Blanditiis eaque sint voluptas dignissimos. Soluta placeat id aspernatur molestiae.
