List of Montreal Props?

I think I might just list my future experience(s) with Montreal prop firms here, for the benefit of future newbies.

Anyway, about to add a couple new names to the first post for documentation purposes.

Now:

WTS: Legit firm in Montreal's financial district, close to the Orange metro line, as well as the Stock Exchange building. Good part of town, I like it. The WTS offices are clean and well lit, and there's a good 30+ trading setups in the main room with CNBC in the background.

They have their own strat that their traders trade, and fees/payout seems good/ok for what it is. $1000 for 30h training + on-the-job support. Money's given back if you don't blow up after a year, so it might count as a risk deposit.

Not for you if you're looking to trade your own strat, but might be worth it if you're looking to learn DoM/Level II/etc. and see what's what. Their bad rep seems to come from their US counterpart or something.

And that's my view of WTS. Others to come up later as I check e'm out.

You must not be a trader if you're new to this forum. PM your contact info and we'll go from there.
Merci.
No.

(Just bored on a Sunday)

Curious as to whether anything came of your searches?

^ Postponed until September for the most part. Thanks for asking, though.

I figured I'd best accumulate capital over the summer, then give prop a shot in the fall. In the meantime I can get peripheral info on the firms around here, though I'm a bit edgy about going for interviews since I wouldn't start right away and they might not like that or something.

I wish I could also build up trading exp. during the summer, but my work hours aren't good for that. The Asian session is also **** these days (as a guy who doesn't have easy access to better software/brokers) so nothing to do but make end-of-day summaries of market activity and ****ty swing trades.

I'll keep ya'll up to date if it's something of interest, though. :)
 
I am once again on the lookout for firms, though I might as well add that anything anywhere that is legit and has people who know what they're doing is good enough for me. Forget about trading, I really just want to meet/get to know people who know what's what.

That said, I've been looking into Maverick Trading, and I'm getting mixed signals. On the one hand, it's a reputable firm that will teach you Options trading, etc. On the other hand, they are shills selling education with a website designed to draw in newbies.

I'm currently leaning towards the latter. Any opinions?
