Hi Stockrock1, I am trading with IB right now and with less than 10K of a capital. So, I really don't know much (almost nothing about the world of prop's. Lojze

Hi Stockrock1, I think, that it is easier to move from the amount of capital which I have right now to the 25K limit. That's the most important reason. The second is shorting on downtick. This is maybe not as important, but I like it. Should there be any other reason, maybe more...

If my reasons are the same than yours, but we are on opposite sides - am I wrong? Lojze

Hi Dot, Those are my answers: 1. I would easily jump over the hole between my current capital and 25K in order to daytrade 2. I would be able to short on downtick 3. I would have more capital available than with 4:1 margin with IB Maybe there are other advantages, are they? Help me...

Are they LUCKY ? They need to be really good - otherwise they won't get high salary and they take home just 7- 12%. As pro trader, you can earn more than just nice 6-figures salary and 7-12%, right? Or I miss something? Lojze

Hi Babak, I couldn't find Don's thread on this topic. Can you be more specific? Lojze

Actually is not the question that I like to short. It's more the question of being successful in donwmarket or falling stock (like ADVS on June 11, or PEOP the day before) Without being able to short on downtick (downbid) I actually miss the most promisable plays. Correct? Or anything...
