To the OP. You can go to this link and go through the firms. http://www.tradersnarrative.com/list-of-proprietary-trading-firms-735.html The list is mixed with true prop firms and leveraged retail arcade type setups.

So their traders are fully backed with no capital deposit? A real prop firm = you trade firm's money, no deposit. The terminolgy here is all screwed up. Most places that claim to be prop firms are just leveraged retail set-ups. Nothing wrong with that, but it's not a prop firm. It has...

I have had dual dual cores (so kinda like a quad core) on windows xp 64bit with 8 gigs of ram for a while now. I use TT which does supports and recommends multiple processors and also run a bunch of live updating excel spreadsheets. No charts on the machine. Performance was greatlly improved...

Radianz sucks and is a rip off.

Ok. but they aren't a real prop firm. so why bother with this post.

Just do a search on prop firms and read through some of the threads I'm sure you'll find some.

Does it ever trade or just open up limit up everyday?! But seriously, any idea on the fundamentals behind this move versus other wheat products?

I can't believe that differential was taxed to begin with. Wow, outrageous!!! Where's the love?

yes. that is how it usually works. rates down, bond prices up. however, when the fed cuts rates it's done at the short end of the curve. there are other factors that come into play when you are talking about rate cut effects on bonds (usually refers to the 30 year), such as inflation...

One other thing. Do you have to trade from home? Your chances would increase greatly if you were willing to go into an office. I know there are some futures shops in Montreal. I'm not saying you're chances would be good, just better than trying to find a remote backed deal. Experienced...

Yeah the risk management there has some major holes. But to all the people telling this guy to quit, I don't think it's good advice. It's not like trading jobs are just being handed out to inexperienced traders, especially one that isn't even done with school! He's got a job where he gets...

Oh. Wow. This is funny. :D OP 8 days is meaningless unless you're doing about 1000 trades a day. Not even worth mentioning. It actually sounds worse if you mention that as a track record.

Well, on the bright side, there will be a spot opening up so maybe you'll be getting a promotion soon. :D Seriously, I don't know what prop firm you work at, I have some pretty good guesses, but that's a pretty piss poor risk management system they have in place. It sounds like your at a...
