01The firm

A quantitative trading firm built on research, engineering and risk discipline.

ZKX Technology develops and runs systematic trading strategies in electronic markets. Each model is specified in advance, validated on historical and out-of-sample data, and reviewed before it is allocated capital.

We build and operate the full stack in-house — market data, research tooling, execution and post-trade accounting — so that every result can be measured, explained and reproduced.

02Approach

The principles we hold to

  1. Principle 01

    Evidence over conviction

    We act on what the data supports, not on narrative or intuition, and we change our view when the evidence changes.

  2. Principle 02

    Risk before return

    Preserving capital comes first. We would rather forgo an opportunity than accept a risk we do not fully understand.

  3. Principle 03

    Discretion and independence

    We work quietly, think independently of the crowd, and let results — not publicity — speak for the firm.

03Platform

One platform, from research to reconciliation

Every strategy moves through the same controlled lifecycle, on systems we design, build and operate ourselves.

  1. Research

    Hypothesis

    Ideas are formalised as testable hypotheses and studied on historical market data.

  2. Validation

    Simulation

    Cost-aware, out-of-sample simulation decides whether a model earns an allocation.

  3. Execution

    Automated trading

    Low-latency order management runs within hard risk limits enforced in real time.

  4. Control

    Reconciliation

    Every fill is recorded in an append-only ledger and reconciled end to end.
