In a financial institution, a proprietary trader ( also known as a securities trader ) is a trader who trades securities on the account of the institution he/she works for, not for client-based business.

Such traders utilize a wide range of strategies (including technical analysis or statistical arbitrage) to take positions in the market place in a variety of assets.
