The Cross Desk · Chicago · Est. 2026

A private trading desk that argues about your watchlist.

Every trading morning at 8:00 CT, four desk heads meet over your watchlist and positions — the quant, the risk officer, the intern, and the PM who runs the room — and file a Desk Brief before the open: the tape, your book, the levels, the calendar, and the one argument that mattered.

The firm opens to outside accounts shortly. The desk is in session.
