Maverick Vs Don Bright

Quote from logic_man:

I was under the impression (I guess perhaps wrongly) that Bright had a specific strategy they wanted all their traders to use, but it sounds like you are bringing your own. Is that because of the personal relationship or is it that Bright actually does allow flexibility in this matter?

Although we teach various strategies, based on what we see working in real time, our traders are use dozens of various techniques. All within basic risk parameters.

And, Mav, sorry - not really feeling too well lately. But I have asked that Sini give you the "room with a view" for you and your trading partner. Hope to see you guys in our our "Top 25" list soon, but take your time, I know you'll do well.

Back to bed until Easter dinner with kids and grandkids. I hope you enjoy your time as well.

Don

I posted Echo's rates because I think they are really one of the only other firms out there that are comparable to Bright in terms of how long they have been around and their reputation in this business.

I have no interest in dealing with the sub LLC's out there of which there are many.

If you guys think there are better deals out there, don't hide behind an alias, post them. I will call them Monday and confirm if what was posted was true.
 
echo does pay 100 % of profits to all traders

how does that compare to bright paying out Only 80 % of profits

That is a huge difference for most traders . why give away your profits ?

huge difference for most traders i would say regardless of comm

I'll tell you what. I'm going to say something and I'm going to ask you to read between the lines. Fair enough? Bright's deal is the same as Echo's. You can interpret that however you want. I'm not going to elaborate.
 
most active traders probably do 1 mil shares monthly on average

some props will offer .0015 to traders with a 95 % or higher payout

it's a matter of neg the best deal with any firm that meets your needs

Look, it's Easter. I'm not going to be a dick to you today. I know what the "facts" are. I've been in this business for a long time. Maybe too long. I know what deals are out there. I know every firm in this business. We'll leave it at that.

And for the record, I have no sales involvement with Bright whatsoever. Just trying to keep the facts on the table here.
 
Quote from hitnrun:

i know the deal & how it needs to work out in the end to get the trader his profits at the end of the day

I have no idea what that means but happy Easter anyway.
