I have to agree with fattaside to avoid this firm at all cost.
here are my reason, like them or not
1) ABWG is in heavy debt like most pos firms. They bought out pos Onsitetrading and research it yourself and see how much money went into the garbage.
2) Got 5 million from Etrade for licensing the Ultimate Trader II software which etrade calls Power Etrade. The software is a pos, I can say that because I used it. It's Java based and it's down on average once a day.
3) Look at the website, the current CEO is not even listed on the site.. hum... call the office and ask them who's the new CEO is and they will tell you. Very Shady biz
4) For those who interviewed there for prop trading, you know it's not true prop trading. If they showed you around, you know what I'm talking about
5) They pocket all ECN rebates.
6) Customer services are dumb as they come, you tell them you got slow quotes, they tell you to use mkt orders.
7) Have three floors on 40 Wall street and one of them is completely empty
8) Good luck getting paid
9) The desk fee is a big joke, almost as funny as Worldco's background check fee
10) They suck, sorry, ran out of item.
Happy Turkey Day and let's hope for the January effect to take place next month.
