About>Contact
You've mentioned foreign firms a few times. Therefore, I will assume you're located outside of North America.
The foreign firms looking for "discretionary traders" are few between and the type of "discretionary traders" they're interested in have already had prior work experience with another firm/institution.
My point, usually profitable "discretionary traders" that are consistently profitable for a minimum of a few years rarely seek a position at a firm. I only say this because I have a few personal friends (not internet buddies) in Europe that are profitable discretionary traders and they have tried the firm thingy to only quit and go back to trading their own capital due to what I refer to as "loss of freedom" (too many restrictions) on their trading style after being hired.
I guess its all good because they can now use the experience and include it on their resume if they were to decide at a later date to try working for someone else instead of working for themselves.
Why did they try the firm/institutional trading thing?
It was really personal reasons. For example, one of them only did it because his pregnant wife put pressure on him to get a more "professional job" as she refer to it and wanted him to have more job security with benefits. In my opinion, it was more about here emotional needs (security) and less about him.
P.S. These guys are also highly educated and had worked professionally prior to becoming traders.
Thanks a lot cornholio.
I quit a professional firm few years back, have regretted it ever since.
The kind of facilities and work environment you get are simply not the same.
Plus all the other firms are very hard to get into, cause the best ones generally hire freshers and train them, or you need to be profitable every month .
Thanks cornholio, keep em coming
. applied to both the firms.

Phones wise :-
Sony Z Ultra 6.4", tough and water proof, fast, great screen and if you can still find 1, CHEAP!!
Also Ipad mini 3G/4G, that's my work horse, only use the Z Ultra when I need something more portable.
I'm doing it the hard way, turning $700 into $20,000 then I'll be able to live off it, just hit 10K but sadly heading the wrong way again, so back down to $700 I think then have a good run at the 20K this time LOL
Looked into TooStep, sounds like a con to me, no rich friends or family, don't want to be tied down with someone elses money anyway, what if they pull it, fall out with them, bla bla bla, min interaction with people the better, there all NUTS!!
