• Proprietary Futures Trading

Trading firm capital with internally built technology.

Sturm Capital is a financial technology company and proprietary futures trading firm. We operate as principal trader only, deploying our own capital in futures markets through in-house systems, low-latency infrastructure, and quantitative research.


A proprietary trading company, not an investment manager.

Sturm Capital trades its own capital rather than client funds. The company is built around futures trading, internal technology development, and a workforce weighted heavily toward engineers and technologists.

Principal trader
Sturm Capital acts solely as principal trader. We do not operate a client advisory or asset management business, and we do not manage outside capital.
Futures focus
The firm trades futures contracts across multiple servers with an operating model centered on speed, infrastructure reliability, and disciplined execution.
Engineering-led
Our organization emphasizes software development, systems architecture, and quantitative research as the foundation of how the business operates.

Built in-house, for internal use only.

Sturm Capital uses proprietary software developed for the firm’s own trading and operational workflow. The platform is not offered for sale, licensed externally, or positioned as a client product.

Our edge is derived from internal systems, low-latency infrastructure, and quantitative discipline.
