Trading and Risk

Forex Quantitative Trading Analyst

FundedRight's internal specialist for trader behaviour and trading data: analysing account activity, investigating complex payout or rule cases, and identifying patterns that affect risk, fairness and product performance. This is not a customer support role and not a discretionary trading position.

All roles
  • Trading and Risk
  • Dubai, United Arab Emirates
  • Full time
  • Hybrid
  • 1 opening

What you would do

  • Analyse Forex and CFD trading activity across individual accounts and trader groups.
  • Review profitability, drawdown, lot size, leverage, exposure, holding time and position concentration.
  • Investigate unusual performance or behaviour before complex payout and account decisions.
  • Identify patterns that may indicate account sharing, coordinated trading, copy trading abuse or multi account rule avoidance.
  • Review activity involving Expert Advisors, automated strategies, news trading, scalping, hedging and arbitrage.
  • Distinguish legitimate profitable trading from behaviour that conflicts with published rules or exploits a technical weakness.
  • Check whether suspected issues can be explained by market conditions, platform behaviour, data quality or execution differences.
  • Build repeatable Python or SQL analysis that reduces manual account review.
  • Create monitoring reports for trader profitability, payout ratios, exposure and recurring risk patterns.
  • Assess the likely effect of proposed drawdown, leverage, payout and account rules before launch.
  • Work with the platform provider when order, price or execution data needs technical investigation.
  • Write clear case notes that can be understood by non technical decision makers and support staff.

What we are looking for

  • Practical understanding of Forex and CFD trading supported by analytical work, not only personal trading experience.
  • Strong Python skills for data preparation, analysis and repeatable monitoring.
  • Strong SQL skills for querying large trading datasets.
  • Advanced Excel skills for rapid investigation and reconciliation.
  • Experience with data visualisation in Power BI, Tableau or a similar tool.
  • Understanding of statistical analysis, distributions, outliers and time series data.
  • Knowledge of drawdown calculation, leverage, margin, spreads, slippage, swaps, market sessions and economic events.
  • A degree or equivalent experience in mathematics, statistics, quantitative finance, economics, computer science, engineering or another analytical field.
  • Sound judgement and willingness to test alternative explanations before reaching a conclusion.
  • The ability to work independently and document methods so another analyst can reproduce the result.
  • Experience in a prop firm, broker, market surveillance, dealing, risk or trading analytics environment is strongly preferred.

What will help you stand out

  • A portfolio showing Python or SQL analysis of trade, order book or time series data.
  • Experience analysing MT5, Match-Trader or comparable order and account data.
  • Experience detecting copy trading, arbitrage, platform abuse or coordinated account behaviour.
  • Knowledge of broker execution, liquidity, spreads and slippage.
  • Experience turning one off investigations into automated monitoring rules.

  2. 2Thirty minute screening call covering Forex knowledge, location and experience.
  3. 3Sixty to ninety minute practical exercise using an anonymised or fictional trade dataset.
