Wrbtrader, thanks for sharing this information. Which of these professional trade journal software platforms do you recommend? Thank you.

What do people think of Trading Diary Pro? Any comparisons of Trading Diary Pro, Trademetria, Tradevue, Tradersync? Are these software platforms not risky? Can the software not obtain trades of a proprietary system from the diary/journal and possibly reverse engineer or piggyback these trades/...

Thanks for the comments SunTrader. Keeping aside climate change fears, what are the things you like and dislike about Palm Beach

Do you have any sources you could point me to that indicates that Palm Beach would be safe from flooding/sinking in the next 100 years? I ask sincerely because I am heard/read conflicting positions.

Could you qualify what you mean by "no risk capital"? When you say "No IP" does that mean I keep the IP I bring, but cannot keep any new IP I develop while there. Could you please qualify. What's the typical amount of starting capital allocated to these "hired traders"? Thanks.

Thanks. Can you tell me the structure of the deals for the "hired" traders? What are the profit sharing ratios, how much capital is provided to the trader, how are losses shared, what fees are charged to the hired trader, what are commission rates, is remote trading allowed, can I maintain...

Can someone give me a current (as of 2016) state of the futures proprietary trading arena? Names of firms? Types of deals? Commissions and fees? Risk capital required? How to join these firms? Do you still maintain your independence when you join these firms? Any other details would be...
