Sure CME does not offer as much as these other "exchanges" offer but then again the chances of entire exchange disappearing like that Canadian guy who died overseas and took the key with him ! What are the chances that CME disappears overnight ! that was my point

How regulated and safe are Deribit and Binance compared to CME!

There is a Singapore based Tehc platform paradigm that allows block spreads from MMs which are then settled on Deribit and other exchanges..., they say Deribit margins spread as a spread! that is what I got when I talked to them but may not be correct ,

I can see your point about FX OTC B book etc , but there are also other tets fee props who claim they give access to CME futures meaning real major exchange not OTC.. even then it is not clear if the trade really goes to the CME! any way

I think this documentary talks about 2 diff aspects and both are very much alive so I don't think it is out of date as such , 1) Cult type / Ponzi schemes using something like Trading education / or non ponzi trading education and 2) the Pay for test prop model ...and funny part is BBC gave the...

Very interesting documentary by BBC

I think you know the reason:sneaky: ! Hamster wheel of failed Test fees that is why , True props hunt traders at their own costs!:)

Dawn I think there is a misunderstanding let me clarify - Although my trading record is good, my account size is small and hence looking for prop funding so I can trade bigger a/c + access to tools like Synthetic spreaders - What I meant is Diff market same product like between say TOCOM/ SGX...

Yes true , understood...and that is what I am seeking, bigger account, More advanced spreader and some training in more complex than what I am doing ...

My account size is small but % profit is good + I want to get some training specially in more complex spreads like between diff markets The main problem is most of US firms dont do Asian spreads!

OK so for $300 +99 you get to 1500 to play with as a downside However perhaps it is better to know that 15k is real and if you then dot use leverage then it is 15K so a 10% but if you use leverage on 15 k say 5x then that -1500 can come sooner

Sorry I am confused ,, the rep say it is real 15k you are doubting it? what is the logic ? COuld you please explain it will benefit all of us!

Ok thanks so 15k real x 5 = 75K notional , but you say Max lot size = 0.5 = 50K notional so what is cumulative lot size? Also with FX being OTC and only one liquidity provider.. is then not a Market making model meaning if more of your traders win the liquidity provider is going to loose...

so to be clear 15k is real 15k and then the leverage is? so total nominal exposure one can take .. by the way since this involves OTC FX , which broker and in which jurisdiction?

OK thanks .. sounds logical ...:D but want to hear from horses mouth in black and white .. in this industry lots of marketing gimmicks are used hence the clarity I can a start a business tomorrow and say I fund people for $200K based on Internal leverage of a ES futures contract at say 4000x $50...

Hi I now have 12 months track record trading Future Calendar spreads on Asian exchange ( Backed by broker statements NO DEMO) Looking for any suggestion where I can get possible further funding (and perhaps some training) Specially Both Exchange traded spreads , Synthetic spreads between Asian...

Repeating is the 15 K real 15 K or 15 K nominal? most of these firms say 25K/ 50K account but it is actually not real 25/50 it is the Leveraged Nominal Hence the question

IF the exchange itself holds all the Margin money or a 3rd party Govt agency directly holds it and the FCM only do the marketing then would this problem be reduced? Probabaely too radical a thought!

IB claims all money is under SIPC? even though it's singal account allows you to trade Futures not just Stock!

Cognates which prop was that and was it one of the Pay for test? ... almost al these "Pay for test" type PROP allow Futures.
