We’re Akuna Capital, a proprietary trading firm headquartered in Chicago, IL with more than 350 employees worldwide. As a top 10 most applied-to company, we receive thousands of applications each year but are constantly looking far and wide for the brightest talent to join our team! We’d like to provide your USC students with opportunities to learn more about Akuna and Options Trading and would appreciate your helping sharing the information.

We’ll be hosting a series of interactive presentations on various dates for those interested in learning more about Akuna Capital and the world of options trading. This will be an interactive presentation where participants get a chance to not only learn more about us, but to participate! We won’t talk AT you. We’ll talk with you.

You’ll be able to answer questions, ask questions from one of our Traders and compete against other participants in a live trading game.  We’ll offer these on the following dates and students can sign up at:

Akuna Capital 101 Course

We’ve created a Trading 101 Course that is free and open to the public. We’d love for you to spread the word about the course to any departments, clubs or your general student population that might be interested in a career in trading. We’ve attached a pdf flier for the course and there is also a shorter blurb below.

At Akuna, we often get the question, "Where can I learn about options and market making?" As a result, we decided to create our own educational course covering the basics of this niche industry! Our free course is open to all and is a great introduction to our business, covering everything from open outcry and electronic market basics to an in-depth section on option greeks.
