NYC HFT
Currently working for a large HFT prop firm in Chicago and curious about what's out there in New York. My experience is primarily in equities market making.
Firms I know of there:
-HRT -Tradeworx -Virtu -Tower Research -Getco - is their NY presence significant or is it mostly floor guys for their DMM business and sales guys for their ATS? -Two Sigma - more of a stat arb/quant trading hedge fund? -Jane St - from what I know seems like a different model than Chicago HFT shops, but very well regarded -Eladian - startup market making shop founded by ex-ATD guys, no idea if they're getting traction or not
Any I'm missing? Am I correct in thinking overall comp probably won't be much better than in Chicago? Base is likely higher in NY but I don't see why P&L bonuses would be.
Do any of the large banks have competitive HFT desks?
Also any info on culture, structure (siloed vs. collaborative), etc. for these firms would be appreciated, but I doubt anyone who knows enough to say and values their job will post here. Not looking for arbitrary BS rankings on perceived prestige.
