Anyone know of the firm?

The Swordsman · Dec 6, 2007

I dont, but there was a poster yesterday who was banned after he posted like 15 posts in 15 different threads hyping them up

cstfx · Dec 6, 2007

there was also a thread here a while ago discussing this firm but I see that has been deleted as well. (And I was going to chide the guy for not using the search feature)

Another victim of the Tuco aftermath.

Quote from Babak:

Just got an email from asking me to remove Arima Capital from the proprietary trading directory because they are no longer in business.

Their website http://www.arima-capital.com/ now shows:

Directory Listing Denied
This Virtual Directory does not allow contents to be listed.

Strange since it was only on Feb 24th 2008 that they got the site up.

Anyhoo, just a heads up

Anyone have any color on this? Someone else told me they were only accepting regular retail accts (25K) or series 7 guys? Is this true? If so why are they gone?

Yeah, did you notice the "SEC Action" in red beside it?

Thought I'd leave it up as a flare for those who are doing their DD to be careful when approaching prop firms.

Not that the other firms on the list are shady necessarily, but rather just a show of the kinds of risks that are out there.

Quote from cstfx:

I notice you still have a link for Tuco on your page even tho it links to nowhere.

I was told it was taken down because of maintenance, but the website hasn't worked for over a week now.

The reports of Arima's demise are apparently greatly exaggerated, according to Ron:

Arima Capital LLC decided to just work directly with Assent to recruit, hire and train traders. They still have all their traders, just under Assent.

I suppose this means they are a sub-LLC of Assent (?)

Nice call babak on 1/8/08 (below quote). Could you have been more wrong ?? LMAO! BTW--How sleazy of you to constantly pimp your crappy blog.

Quote from Babak:

wow, just the kind of post that I'd love to see!

the retail investors have already soiled their pants and the market is deep oversold... and then I find this on ET

we'll see how it all shakes out but personally, I think we're about to see a great buying opportunity, this goes into detail why.
