Proprietary Trading Firms

I'm sending out a request.

Those of you who have been reading my blog, if you know of any banks/ trading firms that are hiring, will you drop me a note please?

Yes, full-time trading with a prop trading firm is one of the routes I'm exploring.

I don't know any big names but I heard from someone that Assent was good. They do remote trading. I know a lot of traders that use CY Group. I can't vouch for these bc i don't know them but they seem pretty good

Huge list here:

Also came across these guys on YouTube:

They're a trading firm located in Japan.
I believe they teach high-frequency scalping of volatile futures such as CL, GC, FDAX.
From what I've been told remote learning and trading is available, but you need to understand Japanese to get with their training program.

James:
Thank you :-) I'll write you if I have questions. Am seeing an old friend who was a trader (lucky guy, earned enough to retire in his early thirties to start his own business...) to find out more. Thanks again.

Mark, Cory and Kos,
Thank you so much! I will check out the lists. Kos, I don't know Japanese, but I just sent in an application (before I saw your note) to one of the firms there..yes they trade mainly futures (my cup of tea :-) )

Want to leave S for US?

Jules said...

Well, Harry, I've always been the kind that can just pack up and leave, IF I want/need to :-) I haven't any dependents, and I'm independent, so, yes, if US offers a good opportunity, I'll definitely go :-)
