Prop Firms = What % of daily volume ?

[Joab]

Can anyone confirm exactly how much daily liquidity prop traders bring to the markets % wise ?

My guess is 25%

So you think they did 50 million shares of BSC yesterday?

Ha!Ha! I'm joking.

what do you consider a prop trader? you mean the guys who manually scalp a tick or 2 all day long or the automated firms like getco, atd, citadel, etc...

Completely wrong. I trade 10 million shares a month and I am one of the smaller traders volume wise in my LLC.

Let's do some basic math.

Average prop trader 25,000 (low end) - 250,000 (high end) shares per day.

So let's just say 75,000 shares average per day per trader (give or take).

Average prop house 250 traders

Say 5 big houses and 10 smaller boutiques so lets take 7 as a round #

7 prop house x 250 Traders x 75,000 shares each per day

= 131,250,000 shares volume per day

hmmmmmmmm


Hows that math ????

No idea about it's accuracy but it's probably as good a guess as anyone's so far.
