    Tired of being a retail Broker

    Developments at Assent LLC

    I traded at Assent for a couple of years after I left Market Making.

    Question about financial advisor position

    You call only existing TD clients, they give you all the leads(big deal). They want you to get new money out of existing customers (believe it or not, its not that hard to bring in 2mill a month) when your making 150 calls a day.

    request advice on prop trading

    I feel your pain. Trading is not easy for anyone, but the key is to be in the right mindset. I traded most of my life,mainly for a big firm, then traded on my own for two years. I was very successful up until last year so I packed it in. You might say why? because you had one bad year. I felt...

    Thanks Don, that was a good explanation. It seems that you do provide one of the better training environments and you give prospects a fighting chance with a structured, well planned program.
