they are hopeful they can rollout their list of SSF's
in 35 days - 45 days
I guess if they meant trading days that would be sometime
in November.
Also ... I think prop firm traders would need to pass a test
showing trading proficiency in futures to be allowed to trade these products ...
I might have misunderstood the NFA / CFTC rules as explained
here .... I know as an independent trader I do not have to worry about tests but perhaps when they talked about those with series 7 and 3 exams needing to pass this new test it referred
only to those who would try to sell the SSF idea to customers.
seth, most likely, if you have a series 7 and you want to offer SSF to clients, you will need to get a series 3. And if you have a series 3 you will need a series 7.
Also ... for some of you this might be of interest
