Market making exercise - Flow Traders

Hello everyone,


I am currently preparing for the case study at Flow Traders. If anyone could shed a light on:

1) What is the usual setup for a market making exercise

2) What are the common questions asked

3) Some general tips on how to approach this

4) Online resources with examples to get used to the format of order books and bid/ask quotes


Thanks a lot for your help.

 

Most firms - especially in a time of covid where they can't bring people into an assessment centre and test them use some form of simulation.

There are a few courses that teach you how to use the different simulators.
