OUR FIRM, YOUR FUTURE.

Everyone needs an edge. Ours is making sure our traders get theirs. We’ve worked hard to build an environment that unlocks the potential of every trader and strategist to be a better, more successful individual.

 

Our Mission

This company was built on the idea that every trader should have an equal opportunity to succeed. To have the tools, technology and capital to push beyond individual constraints. We believe the best trading environment is one where knowledge and ideas are shared, enabling everyone to have more success. We think of it as democratizing trading, and it’s exactly how we empower those who work with us. Our traders are trusted with more capital and more autonomy. Which means the sky’s the limit. How far they go is entirely up to them.

 

Becoming a Trader at Rising

The road to trading glory at Rising is paved with good old fashioned hard work.

• A typical path to starting a trading career at Rising starts with a screening process. After you apply, you’ll get a test and questionnaire. If all goes well, you get to the interview stage.
• If you’re hired, there’s a basic training phase that lasts about six weeks. During that time, we’ll teach you all the fundamentals. You’ll learn everything from terminology to software to basic trading strategies.
• Then, you’ll begin your apprenticeship with a senior trader. As your mentor, he or she will give you the guidance you need to become fully independent. This can take anywhere from 18 months to two years. It’s a very thorough process, and 80% of candidates don’t make it. But if you do, rest assured you’ll be primed for success.
