    Anyone trading in the Bahamas?

    It depends on the type of business. The Bahamian people seem to really love food :p . So a good food business would probably do well. I know someone who is presently setting up a Sushi Bar, but he's going really high-end in the tourist area. Introducing a new food franchise down here...

    Is this is a good deal?

    Only prop firms are not regulated, I was referring to a broker/dealer who is very much regulated. With regard to him being able to make things happen; I was making reference to his proficiency and speed in handling my requests.

    Is this is a good deal?

    I'm trading down in the Bahamas with a firm that might be able to meet your needs. Its a small to medium sized broker but so far I've been very impressed with them (the owner seems like the type who can make things happen). Send me a personal message if you're interested.
