can't stand it when i hear: a lot referred to as a car a prop shop in the U.S., deposit or none, referred to as an arcade. because.. a. i've never met a prop shop futures trader on the screen refer to a lot as a car. b. i've never heard a U.S equities prop shop trader call...

don't worry. you have not. i know of no dark pool rebating for crossing at the midpoint.

say you've pegged an order to the inside bid/ask...is there a way in sterling to have the peg auto cancel once the inside has moved x cents away from where you entered the peg? like 10.00 x 10.01 i sent a peg to the inside bid. moves 10.02 x 10.03....and i don't want it any more so i...

like if less institutional money means these fired folks go out and start prop trading their own accounts...then yeah i can see how that might be better for me. but if theres just less money in the market..i dunno

how will less institutional money in the market help me trade as an independent trader.

ditto that. i mean one of their partners was associated with trac ecn before, so its not out of the question they have this 'wts' route. just pointing that out before someone hops on here calling it a scam. i'd also like to know what those routes are all about, hopefully someone from wts...

i moved to a sub of wts and have the following destinations i'm unsure what they are. I know its different for every firm, but if anyone can clear this up or take a stab, that would be great: xfinder axfinder wts suroux asroux nixdark other ones like batsaliq i get, but these not...

put this in prop firms. it really needs to be seen to believe.

when i was 18, i didn't have squat. playing a sport, going to school, theres no time to work more than 20 hrs a week. on min wage, i'm spending that money buying booze, getting a new shirt, and filling up my car, whose insurance i didn't have to pay. do you have any idea how much of a loser...

they don't hire noobs, and they don't take deposits unless you have a massive record. their nymex rates aren't the best.

the sim for 1-2 years? theres a reason prop shops who back don't do this... theres a reason you'd have to be one insane little twit or massively scared cunt to endure that much sim. i just don't understand this mindset of focusing solely on risk, its just not that simple. and in this case...

are you joking? humor me and tell me what sort of deposit you think they accept these days, and what is so 'unbeatable' about not only their rates, but their overall fees.

don't trade with IB/retail. Find a place that will take a small deposit/don't deposit more than 10k, max. Ask anyone on these boards, or me, and i'll recommend some. don't worry about grades. take 4-6 years to graduate if you want, theres no pressure. school should be a playground for...

lol

when you're starting off, perhaps. but i don't know what you consider a 'pro' shop. i mean in the beginning everyone at a regular prop shop starts off grinding, or trading in such a way that nothing learned matters. But just to give an example, people at a shop i know, they're studying for...

touche. i should of said they're the italian mafia of the trading world.

yes and no. as it turns out, many firms that use to charge absurd rates (.007 and up, not all in) have changed in the past year. if you actually trade stocks actively, you know how fees break down. if a firm offers .004 all in, and you take liquidity a decent amount of time: a...

o really...and what exactly would you consider 'a lot'. they never did hire noobs aside from a short stint. thats not how they currently operate, its just a specific fact. on a general note, thats not how most prop futures firms operate these days. stocks, its different.

I traded bund bobl, stoxx, for 2 months and hate them to scalp, hate the range or the volumes. I like the dax. I recently tried ym and er2, also like. what other eurex products trade like ym/er2 besides Dax? or products in any session. if the bund didn't blip, stop printing, blip, stop...
