My Side Job is a Trader

"Well, it's the end of the year, and this market is really meaningless."

Zhang Xin sat on a chair, looked at the market boredly, and found that the market was the same as the previous two days, so he lost interest.

At the end of the year, major companies are busy with their annual summaries. However, due to the short creation time of the matrix and the relatively simple business, apart from the relatively busy financial department, there is almost nothing going on in other departments during this time period.

Zhang Xin simply went to test the quality of a few trainee traders for himself.

As a result, as soon as he came to the trading department, Zhang Xin found that there were only four interns looking at the K-line chart of the market.

"Hey, why are there only four of you, what about the others?"

"Two went back to school for their exams and the others left."

"Huh? Gone? What do you mean?"

Wang Shen saw Zhang Xin coming to the trading room, so he followed him. Hearing Zhang Xin's doubts, Wang Shen explained: "What else can it mean? It's that he offered to resign. I can't help but insist on letting him go." ah?"

"Oh, have the wages been settled?"

"Aren't you talking nonsense, I didn't lose them a penny."

"Okay, the most important thing is not to let the company get a bad reputation."

As he spoke, Zhang Xin signaled Wang Shen to go to his office for a chat.

"How about the few left over? Can I use them?"

"Only one of the six who left was not bad. The others felt that the work was too boring, and then they probably made arrangements for the family, so they proposed to leave. The few who stayed were at least psychologically good. There are enough players, but if we want to cultivate traders among them, it is estimated that only one or two have the potential."

"Come on, I'll go and see how you've trained in the past three months."

Returning to the trading room again, Zhang Xin clapped his hands to attract the attention of the four people, and then said, "Students, pay attention, I will issue trading orders later, I hope you can strictly implement them, have you heard?"

"heard it!"

"Okay, then get ready."

With an order, the four traders opened the trading software, and then opened the futures market software on another screen.

"No. 1, soybean 201801, current price, more than 100 lots!"

In less than five seconds, Trader No. 1 Liu Jie said the transaction was successful.

"No. 2, soybean meal 201801, current price, 100 empty orders!"

The second trader, Wang Guohua, completed the transaction as soon as he finished speaking. Zhang Xin glanced at Wang Shen in surprise. Wang Shen showed a complacent expression, as if to say, "How is it? Did you train well?"

"No. 3, the main contract of rebar, more than 100 lots, No. 4, 201805 contract of rebar, 100 empty orders."

A few seconds later, the two said that the transaction was completed.

After that, Zhang Xin did not place any more trading orders, but he kept observing the expressions of the four people, because in these few trading orders, the main contracts of soybeans and rebar were intentionally reversed, but in order to reduce losses, Zhang Xin passed relevant Lianlian's variety contracts have been hedged to prevent losses from expanding.

After observing for a while, Zhang Xin took Wang Shen back to the office to drink tea.

Until the market close in the morning, Zhang Xin did not issue a trading order.

Wang Shen said: "Daxian, you are going too far. Forget about the two children who are profitable, but the two children who are losing money feel uncomfortable. Seeing that the losses are getting bigger and bigger, there is nothing they can do. If you say you have no pressure , that is absolutely impossible.”

Zhang Xin said calmly: "It is impossible for us to always make a profit in every transaction. Sometimes we need to endure a temporary loss in order to make a game. If we can't even bear this loss, then I don't think he is suitable for trading."

As soon as the market opened in the afternoon, Zhang Xin began to issue trading orders again, but this time he gave the same trading order to four people at the same time, that is, each of them had ten short stock index futures orders, and told them the approximate stop profit and stop loss points position, let them make up their minds within the margin of error whether to close the position, and then leave them alone.

Ten hands of stock index futures are millions of transactions. The four of them used one hand of stock index funds for real trading training before, and the sudden increase of ten times is also a test of their mentality. It depends on whether they can use a normal mind to treat.

Compared with commodity futures, the volatility of stock index futures is relatively large. In the next half hour, four people completed the closing transactions of stock index futures one after another.

Finally, seeing that the market was about to close, Zhang Xin asked the four of them to close all the transactions.

After the market closed, Zhang Xin asked the four of them to display the funds in their accounts. After looking at them one by one, Zhang Xin said: "The four of you are not bad, at least you can strictly execute the transaction orders. Later, each of you will write a transaction summary and give it to me tomorrow." .”

After returning to the office, Wang Shen said proudly, "How is it? These four people should meet your standards, right?"

"The four of them don't have a big problem, but there are still two of them missing. It's a pity that we need to spend more time to investigate."

"Let me tell you, these six people are definitely qualified for the work of traders. After all, there is no company that spends three full months training traders like us."

"How much did these traders cost?"

"On average, one million per person."

"What about the cost of the six that got away?"

"Of course it is also counted on these six people. After all, after spending money, only six qualified, so the entire cost should be shared among these six people."

Zhang Xin smiled helplessly: "It seems that it costs a lot to train a qualified trader from scratch. No wonder those financial companies outside only want to find ready-made ones."

"We haven't counted the time cost yet."

"Six people should be enough, right?"

Wang Shendao: "It should be enough. Sometimes some of the six people will go back to school for classes. Fortunately, none of them have classes at the same time, so the company can at least stay with one or two people. It should not have a big impact on our transaction."

"Okay, let's not talk about them, God, I may not come to the company often in the next year, so I will tell you first, so that you can be mentally prepared."

"What's wrong?"

"My wife is pregnant and I have to stay with her and take care of her."

"When did it happen?"

"It was discovered on New Year's Day, and it has been more than two months."

"I remember you haven't held a wedding yet, have you?"

"The Chinese New Year is held, the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, and you will come then."

"What about the location? Just telling me the time is useless."

"The location is still waiting for the final confirmation. You also know that my girl belongs to Xi Chuan, so you must seek the opinions of her relatives and friends."

Wang Shendao: "I despise you, beast, such a young girl can do it, the key is not to take safety measures, how do you let her go to school?"

"Why do I feel that you are envious of me?"

"I still need to envy you? The one in our family is called a real woman, and it's not comparable to the little girl in your family."

"Roll rough."

Zhang Xin drove Wang Shen out of the office directly, and made an international gesture before leaving.
