Have been working on a new trading floor concept with a few other NYC based traders. We feel there should be an office alternative to simply trading in your house/apt or finding a private serviced office with a small group of other traders.
The idea is to create a large open trading floor (think 50-60 people) where you use your own capital, strategies, platforms, hardware, etc., get to rent out a desk by the month and trade. Your usual office amenities will be included as well as back office support, fast and stable fiber internet, and we'll host an occasional talk/seminar. You'll also get to be part of a great physical trading community, with shared research, market insights, and ideas. Just want to get some thoughts and feedback.
