'Prop" then drop

Quote from handle_this:

That is very good.

So you must be one in tens of thousands doing this.

Unless your trading millions of doallrs, thats another game completley. Different rules and syle than trading 50k account or less..... much.

Did you come onto this thread to find the evil's of this industry? Why are you arguing with any traders and their P/Ls? Six figures is six figures.

Do you know what confirmation bias is? Look into that.

Also, if you want to find some negatives of this business... just go through the prop threads. I'm sure you'll find stories about how some guys got riped off at illegitimate shops. Just remember that is one side of the story. The 5% of guys that make is a testimony to that. It's a tough business, but the rewards are high.

NEW TRAINEE TRADERS at real prop firms GENERALLY HAVE ZERO FINANCIAL RISK FROM THEIR SIDE. (Sometimes they also get a base salary or a draw.)

Distinguish prop firms from arcades.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Ahhhhhhhhh :cool:

You mean a revolving door of neophytes trading 100 share lots paying a desk fee make more for a company than several 100 experienced traders trading 1 to 5 (plus) million shares per month, plus haircut interest.

I don't think so.
