    seeking prop firm to bypass PDT rule

    If you methodology works scalping futures why do you need anyone? There is no PDT rule, shop around and you'll get margins low enough to assure 50 to 1 (if not 100 to 1) leverage even of fast moving instruments like CL. Again, with futures there is no PDT rule and leverage that is more...

    How profitable are the traders and coaches at tst ?

    It seems to me that the reason you look at return on capital is that it is one of the few metrics anyone should care about. I want to know if it fits with risk that works for me and than i want to know what my return on capital was. Why do I give a damn about anything else? If I start with...

    MF Global Common Stockholders

    I just reread the original email. Sounds bullish to me. Sounds like you think there is value there and most of us (we are all guessing) believe the common has no equity.

    A direct competitor to IB targeting active traders

    You can open a broker dealer with much, much less than that but competing with a firm like IB is way beyond just being a B/D.

    How profitable are the traders and coaches at tst ?

    Mav, it was my math that was rediculously off but it was not my proposition in the first place. I agree, it's ice to grab the windfall return but you need to cash in on the spot. No sustainability.

    How profitable are the traders and coaches at tst ?

    I can only repeat what Rick Perry said after screwing up on national TV -- OOPS! LMAO! :D :D $4000 is 60% greater than $2500. Not 62.5% greater. Now we know why you can't trade. You can't even do arithmetic. :p [/B]

    How profitable are the traders and coaches at tst ?

    First of all I would be quite pleased if the risk parameter was within the agreed limits and I would say there is only one number to describe the return: 62.5% over a 10 day period. You could obviously annualize that return on a compounded basis to a stratospheric number but that would be...

    Can I open up multiple cash accounts?

    $400,000 in one account would work just as well. But I believe the four accounts would be acceptable to the firms.
