most brokers have a ROA ( return on assets ) in the neighborhood of 1% - probably .66% on the low side and 2% on the high side. Assets under management depending on the mix i.e. mutual funds,fixed income,stocks,annuitties, etc probably range from $ 10 Mill to 100 Mill. With $20 to $50 Mill...

i started trading the e-mini's this week - same reaction as you silverware. fills are instant - no slippage,no specialist screwing with your order. i'm so used to trading stocks off the futures move - it's a much different ball game trading the indicator itself. been just playing around with...

hey birgulino on your 23 executions, you said the biggest was for 3 , are you using limits or market . were your fills at different prices?

thanks nitro , i've found it's been harder and harder to get in and out with ANY size at all on listed. these pennies have just given the spec a license to steal. today at one point i thought i was covering to make .21 on LEH instead i lost about .15 on 10K shares. hopefully e-mini's are thick...

hi - i would just like to know if there are any traders out there that have successfully made the transition from trading stocks to trading futures, specifically the ES and NQ mini's. I have done reasonably well trading NYSE listed for a major prop firm for the past few years and am thinking of...

i'm at a prop firm. i know i trade for 7.5 cents/share from 9:30 to 10:00 and my numbers after 10:00 are pretty much breakeven. So if i'm up $5k to $10k by 10:00 , i'm done for the day. If i'm trading after 10:00 it's usually only to try and make back my losses.

i make almost all of my money by 9:45, and i'm usually done by 10, but i'll usually stay and watch the market and sit on my hands unless i see a trading opportunity i.e news,downgrade,warning,etc. If i trade again it's the last hour of the day.

i only lost about $10k of my prop's money the first 6 months, made about $12k the next year, then after that it was high on the hog $$$$!!!!

i scalp $50 stocks with 10,000 shares sometimes 20,000 shares - i get out the SECOND the trade is not in my favor - i know that my timing is good enough that if i don't immediately have a mark - it's a loser - i then look for .05 or .10 or even .25 or more depending on the spoos move - if i...
