Wow... went very quiet in here for past 33 days. Waiting until after Xmas to start trading again. Post your blottters if you're active!

Hi Alex, There are a few US prop firms who WILL take on European traders - however Overnight positions is not really their cup of tea. Cy group - I have use them for daytrading in Europe Bright (Need more risk capital - but remember hearing that they do overnight) Nevis (not sure if they do...

Well, I don't know of any Abu Dhabi Prop Firms, I live here so probably would have heard if any. Qatar, am uncertain, but Dubai has 1: Dubai PTG - they charge money for training I believe. Personally I use US brokers/prop firms online and trade on myself. Anyone else out here? Hello?!

Yep... they're a good firm. never had a problem. seems to be a bunch of guys who actually trade too - so they're on the level. best of luck.

I know there used to be a SwiftTrade office there in Ekamai district run by a Korean guy by the name of Alan. I traded with them for a while a few years back in their early days. Unfortunately I can't find details of their operation online anymore. Thye used to advertise on Thai job...

Hi Everyone, Is there anybody else trading from Abu Dhabi in the Emirates?? - If so speak up! I trade US Equities through a US prop firm remotely in the evenings and work during the day! Let's get a discussion going...

cool... good luck bro. Remember to let us know if/when u get a good deal. There is a wealth of info on here, you just gotta trawl through threads on prop to find it! :-) I never really cared for ecn rebate too much, as my focus is on taking a decent move, rather than on cost of getting in.

bigpapi sorry nearly forgot your second point there - yes Laser is NOT so easy on the eye - do not bother touching their charting platform, SO ugly, however when you put your own charts next to Their order entry platform, it pisses on Tradestation/Esignal, etc for order...

call them Again - 6.5 / 1000 is a bullshit deal - do you mean roundtrip - 'cos that makes out to be $13 per trade PLUS 'ecn' fees... which won't work(!) may as well trade on a retail account(!) like i said, i'm not too bothered about the comm cos i trade less, and go for the bigger...

no platform fees, just normal data fees. can't remember comissions off top opf head, will have to check up on that however as a directional trader, this wasn't the Most important factor in my success - I know they were competitive though - just give them a call - they'll be happy to tell you...

hi BigPapi... I got 20:1 to start with, I believe you can negotiate more, but that's once they know you and your results, anyhow, 20:1's MORE than enough for most people, and towardes the upper size offered in general :-)

I have traded through CY Group - very good leverage, service (that's Very important), and I like the Laser platform - no big deal to learn if you really want to. Platform is very fast and versatile once you get the hang of it - full of hot keys to make things Easier. No training that I know...

I traded at CY Group last year, left to do a full time job, and to amass some more sizeable capital. I gave it 2 thimbs up, I got a good initial vibe and just had to trust the feedback online + obviously my gut feeling talking to them on the phone was important. I would suggest having a...
