Why don't open a desk in Paris ??

We had traders in France a few years ago, but there developed some sort of National regulatory and taxation issue that was overwhelming. I can't remember the details, but it made no sense for the traders to even try to make money.

Really? I'll try to get in contact with the traders over there and see if things have changed enough to make sense. Always looking for a good reason to return to Paris.

Refco used to have a prop office in Paris but it didn't work out, London has a huge French population and most french traders work here, think they can be non-dom or something so it works for them on tax.

You could do a weekly commute on the eurostar from London it's only 2hrs :cool:

Thanks very much for this link Dogfish!

London would definately be a consideration for me to move to at some point as well. Paris and London are both nice cities!

Do you trade from a prop firm in London yourself?

If 5 or 10 thousand dollars seems like a huge obstical to start trading, you might want to reconsider full time trading.

The firm I'm with has remote traders in Europe, North and South America and Asia. Traders put up capital and get leverage and software. No licensing required. It's a pretty simple business model actually.

Quote from Frenchy:

i can't find any prop firms where you can trade the firm's capital even if you make 50/50 on profit they ask a minimum deposit of 5 or 10 k !!

Does Refco now Marex still have the most amount of traders ?

Refco used to offer a split profit of 50/50 without any capital upfront, has that changed now ?

All of you made really denigrating remarks about Paris/France

How many times has each of you been there?

Whereabouts in the US do you live now?

I'm a trader and I live in NYC (many years) and I go to London, Paris, Dublin etc.. a fair bit. The citizens of those cities have nothing but negative sentiment toward the US these days but it was not always that way. They're wrong in my opinion but...

The US has a lot of repair to do on its global reputation, that I'm sure of (and do my tiny part when I travel).

The OP here said nothing to invite the xenophobia showed by these 4 posters. So the negativity was not asked for.

Peace...:)

You'll be alright.

All I did was say I was thinking of a retreat in Paris.
