Risk Limits
Hi,
I recently received a small account for discretionary position taking. Currently, risk limits are denoted as maximum position size in each product. Here are the questions I have:
1) What absolute annual return is a good for prop. What is exceptional?
2) What are risk limits for 1-2y analysts?
I would like to collect some more figure on this so I have an expectation of what I should aim for in terms of return and risk responsibility further down the line.
Thanks.
1) compare to market performance always, but 10% seems like enough
based on my random guess.
What kind of trading are you doing? Purely speculative trading...? Based on...?
Most props aren't purely directional in nature and are either going to be MMs of some kind or doing some sort of arb or algorithmic trading, so you can't really compare the results to something purely directional.
This is macro speculation. No MM or algorithmic strategies.
