Top 50 Trading Cities

Don Bright · Jun 18, 2007

I'm kind of surprised, but Las Vegas made number 13 in the Trader Monthly list (even though I did give an interview with them).

But, yes, you guys in NY, Chicago, and Boston etc. are still way ahead it looks like.

It's free access to get on, but all you really get is the short attention span version of print, which is in itself the Readers Digest version of, what..., something. No substance.

Unless you are looking to buy the next useless, decadent gadget.

Any reason why Chicago is ranked #1? Im from there and actually thinking about moving back and becoming a prop shopper. Besides the City being great, what do they base it on?

How come Dubai is ahead of Hongkong? I thought Dubai should make bottom at the 50 list? There isn't singapore, S.korea, Japan...

Dubai is known for real state boom these days, but not trading.......? Would u post top 50 please?
AFAIK few countable traders from Dubai in ET only, and all i know local market aren't that ready for electronical daytrade here.

waoo, i have to find out, may be i'm not well informed what's going on here

Incline Village, NV was left off the list and still is the best place to live and trade on this earth. I have been to the Top 5 places and still nothing beats the views, lake, people, golf and big money in Tahoe.

I have lived in the Bay Area but find it hard to believe San Diego rates below SF.

Shit....anywhere you can make money may be a good place to live. Lets not get greedy.
