    PTG Securities shut down???

    I trade with them. No money was lost and all traders were well informed. This did not change a single thing for any trader with them as they only have a small group of core traders. We are all with Avatar the bd they were with so it's all good.

    PTG Securities shut down???

    I trade through them, they actually decided not to be in the sub-llc business and put their company or any of their traders at risk as it did not make business sense since their broker-dealer Avatar Securities provides the platforms, bp, risk, support, etc. All the ptg traders trade directly...

    1/4% Tax on all stock trades pushed in NY Times today

    I don't see something like this ever passing, I think it is more a scare tactic to scare wall st. If something like this ever passed prop firms, retail firms, etc etc would be closed doors overnight. How would black boxes possibly send their orders? Not a chance this will pass, the market will...
