Does anyone know of any good prop firms to trade remotely with, as a new trader? I don't have any friends who trade that I can learn from. I guess I could look for people on this site but I'd prefer that the people I trade with are from the same company I trade through. After getting laid...

I am located in an area where there are no prop firms. I really want to give trading full time a shot, but since i am staying put where i am, i guess it would have to be remote. However, I always prefer being right next to the people i work with especially if i need to learn from them. So...

yeah - it looks like you either pay extra for the service OR make an average of 5 trades per month for 3 consecutive months to get it for free.

well. i have plans of moving out of my current state - not NC. i'm trying to consider all my options including renting it out. i figure i can have a low payment that can be covered by the rent i collect, and 3-5 yrs later home values will have rebounded a little bit.

the home value according to cfc is 617,000 but that's inflated. realistically i could sell this for around 600. my loan amt is 400. income over 200k, and pay 400/mo in low int. credit card payments and school loans.

i have a fico score of 785 according to countrywide when i spoke about a refi to a 5 yr ARM IO. they gave me the my current int rate (5.75%) and closing costs of 4500. i do'nt think this is a good deal, is it? this was just three days ago.
