Texas traders

Quote from JayS:

The SOES and some other guys gave Texas especially Houston a bad rep a few years back. Most firms are hesitant to do anything but remote traders from Texas.

Jay in Houston

p.s. Velocity has a retail futures room but thats about it around here.

Do they still have a trading rooms? Last I heard only the data center was still in Houston?
 
I wasn't so much looking to trade in Texas now. I currently live 10 min. from NYC and I might move to Houston within a couple of years. I was just wondering what kind of interest their was in Houston. I wouldn't want to be a remote trader and if there was interest, I'd try to open up an office. As of right now, I"m currently a Prop trader for Hold Bros.

Quote from Maverick74:

Sorry to bother you Texas folks again. But I would like to get your feedback on some of the pros and cons between Houston and Dallas. This is for a parent of mine that is moving from the midwest. I am lobbying hard for the Woodlands north of Houston. But I would like to hear your take on Dallas as well. Also, does Dallas have something similar to the Woodlands?

I know Highland Park north of Dallas is suppose to be nice as well as Plano. I really don't know the area well so these are the only two towns that ring a bell. Also, let's throw in Irvin and Fort Worth for kicks.

Doesn't Dallas have one of the worst murder rates in the country?

Just saw your post here......HOUSTON....UUGH!!!

They will HATE the humidity there.....have them move to Georgetown or Austin and life will be SOOOO much better for them. If you have any questions then give me a pm (I know people in all areas of Texas). :)

Quote from 5Pillars:

I had lived in Flower Mound several years ago.....not a bad area.

I just do not like real big cities so I down sized. :)

Where did you move to?

My in-laws have lived Lewisville so after 12 years in the military I let my wife decide where we would move to and Lewisville was her decision. I like the Flower Mound/ Lewisville are though.
 
Quote from CoolTrader:

Do you own your home? Home in Lewisville isn't cheap.

Yeah, we built our house about 3 years ago. Prices aren't too bad here compared to some other areas.
