Rick Santelli rocks!! Steve Leisman is a fat prick, I love it when Santelli lays the smack down on him.

From what i've read you are totally undercapitalised. Just paper trade until you've got a respectable account that will actaully allow you to trade something.

Because they used it to give someone else intraday margin.....

I bet YOU don't trade. Good R:R, Win% and expectancy are the foundations of good trading.

This guy was never a trader. Just leeching off the turtles, which he was never involved in!! He's a complete cu#t

Yeah, sorry forgot to say it was Geneva!! It's where the firm first started from. The Chicago office came afterwards. http://www.geneva-trading.com/contactus.html http://www.geneva-trading.com/aboutus.html

Know a few guys who were at the Dublin office. They said it was a good shop but definitely not for pikers. They expect results from their trainees and are pretty ruthless when it comes to giving them the boot. The head honcho said in an interview "If you can't make 10k (euros?) a month after...

"Americans, all the gear, but no idea" Have to argee along with 75% of the population of the planet.

When the LIFFE floor closed down in London alot of guys who used to make alot of coin in the pit tried their hand at screen trading. Apparently when placed in front of a computer, probably for the first time in their lives, one guy picked up the mouse and spoke into it "Buy 50 Sep Bunds at...

HAHAHAH That is one of the best examples of how stupid people are in the markets and on these boards!! I am going to post this on other boards and show it to the guys at work.

Open E Cry have instant fill. It's so easy to make money on the demo so it induces guys to open an account!!

Dude, have you even read this thread? Yes the exchange fees are 1/10th = 0.039c to 0.06c depending on your membership/volume However, the guy from velocity said he would be charging around $2 a rt. That makes this WORSE than trading at a bucket shop. For this to be viable you need to be...

What Net Geners have any money to save? Laden with huge debt from college, poor job prospects when they leave, they can barley make ends meet at the moment. Compared to when I was there age they live in adject poverty.

If brokers are charging $2 a rt this contract will be dead from the start. The commission also needs to be 1/10th for this to be viable

The exchange fee's will also be 1/10th the size of the full contract

Could you elaborate on this, I don't get it? I understand that the individual hedge will follow a stochastic process but so will the value of the trading account. Therefore the net effect i.e hedge payoff, should be linear?

The way i would look at is, with your $200K trading account in the US, you are effectively : LONG 2 lots USDCAD spot currency To hedge, just put the opposite trade on with an FX broker i.e SHORT 2 lots of USDCAD. Any further weakness in your US$ trading account will be off-set by the...

Back to the original OPs question, no - a stint at a prop firm would actually be more of a disadvantage if you wanted to pursue a career at an IBank or fund. Retail 'prop' trading sticks out on human resources read of your resume as 'couldn't get a job with reputable IBank let alone a 3rd/4th...
