Market making is providing liquidity to the client in a way that every time the client wants to buy or sell, you take the opposite side. This is really what market making is in a nutshell. Market makers can be brokers, can be banks, can be hedge funds. And all you need to do is basically like be there for the client, taking the opposite position and having strategies that allow you to come out of those positions in the money.
