Quote from Jigger11:
Could either of you expand on your experience with Gil? Gcapman, you met him, so maybe you can explain more. Is there office professional looking? I have been in contact with him on the phone as well and I was under the impression that he wants to keep a small team of traders. I would be remote and am now wondering how many others he is calling and how many others are remote. I've always been bothered by the fact that if he wants a small team why does he have ads running nationally and internationally? Can he not get a good small team of local traders. I mean New York is pretty damn big!! Thanks to anyone who can provide anymore useful info on Next Level Trading Capital.
Hey there.
Their office is pretty professional - a bit smaller than some of the larger daytrading firms located in the Wall Street area - the major advantage is that they don't charge desk fees of upwards of $1K like some of the other firms I interviewed with.
The sense that I got was that they have many experienced remote traders whom he does not have to focus on so much due to their experienced nature.
Also, they tend to filter out traders who they believe can be successful versus wasting efforts on those who are trading for gambling purposes. He told me to join another firm if I'm becoming a daytrader to gamble.
I can't speak for everyone else but the major decision in my joining them was the fact that they are a smaller firm where I could get some good hands-on coaching. Before I joined, I did research on some other big daytrading firms, and it seemed apparent that they were only after getting as much as they could from me before focusing on their other 300 traders - my exact experience at my previous prop firm.
To each his own.
I'll keep you updated on my progress.
