After 8 years of trading OPM for other people I finally left a top named prop fund and started my own CTA. Im talking to a few IBs and Im looking for a good rate, good service and maybe some assistance to raising capital or access to their clients to so such - any ideas or recommendations would...

Ask your Ib or FCM for a few names. The guys at Proactive Futures have been very helpful to me in getting set up.

5 months:) Man those were the days.....I took $12,000 (I know its not 5000) in just under 5 months. Took TRAC from 3 to over 30, BIDS (this pos still around lol) from the Toronto exchange to Nasdaq from 3 to 32, KTEL from 7 to 70, 265 points from QCOM, 125 pts from YHOO. Ok some of those...

Im not looking to start slow but I thank you for your input. I have pledges of substantial capital from a few major institutions that know of my trading so its just a matter of getting what they have pledged more so than just getting started.

I have been looking for seed to get a commodity pool seeded and have pledges from a few large institutions for significant capital inflows, but no one wants to be the 1st man in. Most want to see 1 good quarter with OPM before they fund me. I am willing to give up equity but incubation capital...

There is no way I will let anyone see my codes. People in this industry, or in general can not and should not be trusted with such proprietary information. I am more than willing to run the backtest for them live, but thats it. As far as you your saying "Further, what you are really...

Does anyone have any contact information for prop desks at either a major firm like JP Morgan or Citibank, etc., or a private prop shop trading for real money. Im not looking to get involved with a or a small brokerage or an over-leveraged prop firm that needs my capital and wont show a balance...

esc trader, could you be more specific on the terms of the greentree deal you posted about? tx

Breakout, I have them so I may as well keep them alive, but I meant it more as a figure of speech. I do trade stocks and options still, but probably only 5% of my trades tt ps nice signoff message

Learn to read bigbear. Ive had 2 deals signed sealed and delivered inside of 3 months. Just a run of bad luck in not picking the right firm. Its not a matter of getting an offer, but getting the right offer from the right firm. I do not want to have to look for a firm again. I have a lot of...

i got it. thats why it took a double take:)

thanks doc, and great nick:) had to read it twice

axe, Im an intraday trader, purely technical reads. I trade the Eminis for the most part, and as far as size goes large positions do not alter my #s. tight stops, let the winners run. tt

Thanks fast. candletrader - I have never traded my own account before. Its something I am looking into but it is not my comfort level.

I dont know who these guys are nor do I care. I was told by a fellow trader I might get some intelligent answers to my search/questions. If you dont mind lets try and stay on, orget on topic. Thanks.

CHAMPION TRADER like Buzzy Whats a "CHAMPION TRADER" and who is Buzzy? I am as good a chartist and trader as you will meet, but if there is a superbowl of trading I guess I never knew nor entered it:) My record speaks for itself.

I'm a licensed trader, 7 and 55. I've ran a private fund for 5 years, and have been a prop trader for a few years, but I'm tired of all the BS and empty promises. In the last 4 months I've signed deals with 2 firms. The 1st one, one of the biggest houses on the street, after 3 months...
