Quote from B.Willis:
Does anyone know if there are professional proprietary trading firms like Bright Trading, Echotrade, etc. in Europe?
I´m looking for European firms or branches of US firms.

Quote from saschabr:
Carl Kliem maintains some offices in Germany, but i heard overall conditions are rather unfavourable (like with other trading offices, it are much more trading offices than prop firms, but i do not know any real prop firm at least in Germany)
are you familiar with any trading offices (it doesn't have to be a prop office)in london?
GDD.com went out of business a few weeks ago.Quote from stevet:
gdd are not a prop firm - they are brokers - and what are your concerns and what are the mysteries ? gdd are not "cheaper" than IB - they just have a different business model which offers the same lower rates for high volume that everyone else offers. but what do you know about them ?
Regulating authorities (EBK) had withdrawn banking licence
for their parent "Redsafe" and broker licence for GDD. Thus
they were forced to shut down all operations.
