List of Montreal Props?

Quote from tradingmanuals:

Those are employee jobs and all want you to have "profitable" track record an have some computer programming or engineering as many of the daytrading is now all HFT. The only manual trading is handling customer orders. And if you have a trading strategy, they'll just automated with computer program.

I'm just say that profitable traders has no need to work for any firm. These firms want your algorithm if your system is producing big profits. Some programmers don't even give the trading firm their code. Don't give the firm your code or system or they won't need you.


Has anyone appllied to their one job postings or gotten a job offer from these firms or even reply after sending them your profitable resume?

Once again you come up short on facts. Every one of these firms hire kids right out of school with no experience and no track record. In fact, that is the norm. These firms are not interested in "re-training" you or getting you to unlearn your bad habits.

All these firms have "manual" traders as well as algorithmic traders. Are these firms "selective"? Well, let me ask you this. Do super models f*ck short bald fat guys? Not on average they don't.
 
They have training program. all prop have training program but 80% of the job now is computer programming jobs with knowledge of C+++ this is not the 80's or even 70's anymore. In order to programm C++ you need to go to college and is very complex program.

the days of trading in the chicago trading pits with hand signals is over. it's fully computer automation. unless you are profitable trader they are not interested.

Is English your 3rd language? None of the firms listed are floor trading firms. Thanks for allowing me to update my Mayan calendar. I thought we were still in the 70's. LOL.

You finally are correct about one thing though. College helps. Not just at getting a job at a trading firm but even getting a job at Sears.

Look buddy, it's obvious you have no idea what you are talking about. I don't want to hijack this thread. I simply wanted to put some info out there. To sum up, there are plenty of prop firms. All of them are hiring. There are also plenty of firms like Bright who will take your money.

If you think guys are making a living in a retail account trading then you probably also believe super models are sleeping with short bald fat guys. I can lead to the creek but I can't make you drink the water.

If I'm not mistaken, someone posted a list of prop firms in Montreal awhile back. You should be able to find it under a search.
 
Why do they need manual traders? Why not automate?

Who? You are asking a broad question. These firms are all very different and trade different markets. No two firms are the same. So "who" in particular are you asking about? All these firms have different business models. You need to be more specific.

Bother?


This guys is beyond clueless. I love how he believes profitable traders should trade retail and not go to a big firm where one can get big capital backing, access to top technology/analysts, and work with other top traders.

Nah..he's right....the good traders should stay at home and trade 5 lots of Russell futures in a t-shirt and sweat pants.

Gotta love ET.........

Some guys give to their church. Some guys shave their heads and move to Tibet. I like to give back to ET. :)
 
Before I continue...

Do you believe that any manual method can be automated?
