I think you will have to clear with or use a broker that clears with Calyon in order to have access.

That's what I meant by small commish. Good firms usually will make nothing or next to nothing on the commish.

Well, that's the whole point of futures prop. I'm sure you'd get to trade more size than you could in your personal account with almost all futures firms. That along with extremely reduced RT commissions.

I have a misdemeanor fraud charge on my record. I basically got caught with a fake ID in college, went to court and had to pay a small fine. I've had no trouble with registering with NASD firms, including large reputable brokerage houses. However, I do have to disclose the situation.

You guys are funny. I trade from an office where quite a few people make as much, if not more than MK and NBBO. And guess what? Some of them post on ET, although they would never post their pnls. The trader monthly "Top 30 under 30" is a joke. There are a lot of futures traders in...

I got annihilated today. I having trouble reading the markets I trade. I'm gonna start from scratch and try to figure out what I'm doing wrong.

Breakeven for me.

Got smoked last Friday right out of the gate. -650.00 Today. -200.00

+1550.00 Today. Hopefully I can close the month out with a big day tommorrow.

+2320.50 After not making anything for the past week, I'll take it. :)

I appreciate the offer. The problem is, I make a living off of trading, although it's not a great one, and I don't think I'm able to switch over to stocks and start from scratch again. Also, I'm relatively new to futures and I see alot of potential, it's more my own problem with trading more...

Futures, in alot of different markets.

+160 yesterday and +125 today. Both days are probably right around breakeven with commissions. My results are getting depressing. :(

No, I really don't have an edge at least anything that I would call an edge. I would like to, that's for sure. I'm profitable, but not to the point where I would like to be. I think that's why I have trouble gaining the confidence to trade size, that and not being as consistent as I would...

I was looking through the thread and I'm really beginning to wonder, how is it you guys that trade equities are so consistent? Is there some sort of actual edge to your trading or do you just know your markets extremely well? I just trade off of market feel (no real edge) and I would really...

I didn't go back and trade the afternoon at all. So, I'm down commissions today. That's 3 down days this week out of 5, 4 down out of the last 6. Very frustrating. I hope I'm not getting in a rut.

Even on the day, down with commissions. This sucks.

-200.00 Today. Very frustrating. Just traded like shit.

+2250 today.

+1485.00 today. Hopefully ending my little losing streak.
