You have to be careful of anyone using Elitetrader to promote themselves. Chances are these posts are three guys sitting in an office together. And if they are only offering remote traders, how good can they be.
Sounds fishy.
Never sign a non-compete or employment contract...
Firms should be doing something so that their traders WANT to stay, not staying because they are locked into some deal
Most paperwork for firms that require you to be licensed is generic. It's the sub LLC retail firm paperwork that you have to dig through. That whole model seems shady to being with.
Been interviewing at a bunch of firms recently and I've been noticing that while some of them require you to be licensed, many do not. I know it has something to do with the leverage.
Can anyone explain it to me?
