    Update on my experiences with WorldCo

    People asked me to post an update, so I did. You guys can take it any way you want. Obviously, I don't max out on my share limit each time. That is simply ridiculous. I only average around 175K shares a day. The fact that I've only had 4 down days in over 100 trading days has earned me the...

    Update on my experiences with WorldCo

    Ok, here's an update now that I've been trading at Worldco for several months now. Gross profit = $166,000 Net profit = $94,000 (My trading style is more scalping) I have had my commission rates cut to 0.0078 cents per share. Still no ticket charge. My payout has been increased to...

    Does Bright have an intership program?

    here we go again...please be informed that Don and his firm pay this site to advertise. do not take everything he says as true. there are several no capital trading firms on the street that far outperform BT. firms that do so well, they don't need to waste their time and advertise on these...

    Help NEED ADVICE

    retail trading firms that ask you to put up money up front will suck you dry. they put themselves before you...obviously they have no confidence in you. it's a scam. go to a place that requires little or no money down. might be tougher to get in, but if you can show you got potential it's a...

    Should I work for Generic Trading of Phila. ?

    Don fails to mention that this equates to over 500,000 shares per month. New traders simply do not trade this much volume (yes, not even at Bright). By the time you trade this much volume, Generic or wherever you go will have you at less than a penny a share....and over 85% payout. By the...

    background of trader

    From my experience, firms that have a minimum capital requirement (20-25k) are absolutely non-selective when it comes down to the quality of applicants. They pretty much hire anyone. Try to find a place that actually interviews you and doesn't first ask you how much you have to put down.

    Lion's Group Trading

    Well, this thread is about Lion's Trading Group, not Bright Trading...is it not? Why is it that you MUST come out of your little hole and always make your "watch out for this firm, it might screw you" speech? We don't need to constantly be reminded to perform "due diligence". We're not idiots...

    Lion's Group Trading

    Is it me, or does anyone else get a bad taste in your mouth each time Don Bright comments on other trading firms? Seems like the guy only brings up exagerated horror stories on firms he's not even familiar with. Smells like a total smear campaign if you ask me. Very poor marketing tactics...

    Tell about your education

    This is an absolute GROSS generalization of what goes on in an "Ibank trading desk". I assume you've never worked for one. True, a lot of our trades were institutional client order flow. However, the bulk of my trades were proprietary. Like daytraders, each of us on the trading desk had our...

    Tell about your education

    A big EGO is in fact a common trait among good traders. All the traders on the desk I used to work for at Merrill were the biggest pricks in terms of EGO....but they all made incredible loot for the firm. I don't know where you're coming from, but from my experience in the industry, traders...

    any prop firms hiring?

    Agreed. Don Bright has much more time on his hands than I do to continue with this ridiculous thread. So...go ahead Don, post whatever you want...I guess you deserve to since you pay EliteTrader so much money anyway. Just thought I'd give some insight into what BETTER ALTERNATIVES exist...

    Well, maybe after you get that foot out of your mouth you can. Part of GS...GIVE ME A FREAKIN' BREAK!

    any prop firms hiring?

    Don Bright, thanks for the age discrimination, buddy. Very classy...especially for a guy who supposedly runs a trading firm and is trying to use this board to recruit more suckers. Nice try...posing the balance sheet question at me....I guess you can't admit that you were being rather...
