Here is the cut and paste from the Trader's Monthly "Top 100 traders" of 2004. You can get the whole thing by going to:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Bob Bright
City: Las Vegas
Firm: Bright Trading
Age: 65
A senior statesman among prop traders, Bright still lights it up. The NYSE-listed equities market has always been his sandbox (he dislikes Nasdaq market makers), though he dabbles in futures an doptions, mostly equity indices. Lately, he has been employing a pairs-trading strategy. "He's thrilled over the NYSE merging with ArcaEx â it's a big win for prop trading," says his brother, Don. When he's not trading, Bright scours the Strip for a baccarat table from which he hasn't been banned. He also owns Bugsy Siegel's 1933 Packard limousine.
Estimated income: $15 - $20 million (Note from Don...the actual number is $28 Mil...just for edification).
