    ghco...yes or no?

    I would recomend a firm that has more technological development and a better risk appetite.. The days of grinding out FIT, NOBS for a lousy 1-2k are gone. Look at some where that takes risk, has a good team developing autotrading programs that arent basic if/then statements. I would avoid...

    NYMEX Clearport Question

    yes the futures are rather futile in terms of the strategy i am looking to employ. there just isnt liquidity in the q's and cal's on globex which is a bummer but such is life.

    NYMEX Clearport Question

    i agree and the capital is not a concern. ive just been out of the OTC loop for a few and wanted to check to see if there had been any majore changes in last 6 months. I used to pay 2.00 for blocks in clearport and I anted to see if there had been any fee compression.

    TRADER MONTHLY BROKE? doubledown folds???

    Trader monthly is a farce. They did a piece on top 30 under 30 and used a chick who I sat next to. She was extremely attractive, tall, multi-lingual and a black belt. That being said she carried a 6 figure debit for well over 18 months before she was fired.

    Prop Traders - Supplemental Income

    There is a reason that Cortez burned his ships when he landed. It forced his men to adapt and not view failure as an option. I find it increases the learning curve dramaticaly.

    Prop Traders - Supplemental Income

    Im a firm believer in not having a built in excuse. I have found that traders that have worked for me who have another gig, even if it is to pay bills, are not nearly as focused. I followed this advice when I first started. Yes cash was an issue but life isnt easy and trading sure as hell...

    Energy prop futures

    Be prepared to pay outrageous fees to prop trade energy. ICE's fees are crazy to begin with but if they make you go home flat at night you will get chopped alve.
