Schonfeld Vs. Carlin

[spyglass]

I am only talking equities not futures. Yes I make money but that doesnt mean I want 30K locked up in a firm for a year.

Getting real backing is easier said then done. Plus I can make money trading a 500K account but trading a 5,000,000 is a lot harder than adding an extra zero to all my trades.

Cheers

Quote from citrus:

i've spent a fair amount of time in other trading businesses but am new to futures. i'm puzzled at some of the incidental information that is flying around.

my questions is:

if you guys are making money in 90% + months, then how is parking $30K any sort of issue? why wouldn't you get real backing and trade big size, i.e. start running $M++ ? are you capacity contrained? i would think liquidity is pretty good in most markets ...

thanks in advance for replies
