ABOUT US
OUR STORY
Located in the middle of the Lakeland Finland, Jyväskylä is the centre of the trading team's operation. Aiming to create a tranquil and low-distraction trading environment, the team works around the clock to develope in-depth actionable scenarios and execution rules following a busy calendar of market-moving FX and macro events.
The most objective proof of a working trading strategy is a long track record that displays robustness through different market regimes. Even if FX is a zero sum, losing game for most professionals in the long run, Thales strategy has still managed to outperform the major market indices over 10-year period with a considerable margin.
