If JPMorgan is lightens up on proprietary trading.....

The biggest losing traders I've ever met and know work for banks. Citigroup has millions come out every year in their trading department.

Where do you guys think all this money comes from?

Sucks that they are shutting down, less liquidity for me to take.
 
Most firms "proprietary trading desks" are "guts traders" trying to make some here and there.

When volatility is over their heads, they burn firm's $ fast.

Not a truely profitable operation unless it is a bullish mkt environment.

I've said it before and I will say it again, bank traders are a bunch of bull market heros trading opm.

Most will go and open car washers.

I get an even bigger smile on my face when someone pressumes to know who is on the other side of the computer. Maybe you've heard this saying Batman28:
