Seeing Prop Trading Opportunity
Seeking a prop trading opportunity, have been trading on my own for several years now. Also I have past risk management insurance training, so I work well in a team environment...Been studying charts and the macro markets. To date self trained. Please guide me as I am new to the forum...
if you have been trading on your own for several years, then whats your track record been?
please list % and $$ gain/loss by the year. (has this been real money, or fake paper trading?) what securities have you been trading? whats your style? (time horizon, leverage, etc..)
my track has never been measured, I seek that in a firm, to provide a opportunity to work in a team environment....trading my own money so real, hit many lights & lows, that makes me wiser now, as that brings me to seek wise guidance & leadership to learn grow and excel in a team...I can raise move too, as I prove myself, as I come from a family of high net worth folks...trading is my passion....been shorting the market technology since Tues...thanks and reach out

I hope you know... Unless you're making seven figures trying OUTRIGHT, no prop firms will look at you. YOU MAY get away with mid six figures. MM prop firms don't hire directional traders, for a reason. Majority of the prop firms are market makers first and they only take risk if and when they have to. There are firms that aren't MM tat do take this sort risk, like Heymeyer, Marquette Partners, FNY Capital, Kershner, etc... But they want established traders.
But you don't even have a valid track record, although you're saying you've traded for several years. 1) Paper trading doesn't count. 2) Your 5 shares a trade that you do on a weekly basis doesn't count. 3) Your risk management insurance training doesn't count.
If I were you, I would join a firm like T3 and build a track record from there. Your own personal account isn't worth taking a look at to these guys unless you're bringing in some serious PnL with a valid strategy.
T3 is not a real prop trading firm...they are a leverage arcade. You deposit 5k (last i checked), and then they give you 20x leverage on that to trade stocks (and they take 50% of your positive PnL for the giving you that leverage, they also charge hefty trading fees). If you lose 5k (including fees), you are stopped and fired. This is not a prop trading firm...this is just expensive leverage on your personal trading account.
better off trading futures in your own PA (futures offer plenty of leverage...you don't need any more), and then keep all the profits to yourself, while minimizing fees.
There are guys that went from T3 to FNY, Quad Cap and plenty other places. There was a guy at my market making firm was previously at T3 and he was our senior trader, making market for NG across the forward for prompt and deferred. OP has no chance of going into any legit firm.
