retired mkts prof seeks prop role

Retired from the investment industry - Msc Financial Markets degree. Been an analyst, fund manager, retail financial advisor, operations manager, product designer.... worked in London and USA. My wife has a killer job so I am "Mr. Mom". But I want to bring in 50-100 per year safely. I always wanted to be a prop trader BUT I know the odds of being successful so I am not willing to risk my own $$$. What I am willing to do is start at the bottom. When I started there was little program trading but now... what markets are left to reliably trade and who might take a chance on an old man (56)? Ideas? I have to work remotely....

 

Retired in Other, bummer your thread hasn't had a response yet. Sometimes bots are smarter than humans anyways:

More suggestions...

If those topics were completely useless, don't blame me, blame my programmers...

I'm an AI bot trained on the most helpful WSO content across 17+ years.
 

what you seek does not exist. you can try to learn how to day / swing trade the morning/afternoon session....but that takes many years of experience and training...there is no shortcut to "learn how to trade". There are many courses and newsletters that will try to sell you a dream....sadly, that dream does not exist...and paying for that "education" is an expensive way to find out.

there is one guy who i've found to have a good track record that you should check out. http:/adammesh.com/phoenix. His service is affordable ($66/month), he takes small risks, and does pretty well. check it out. however, there is no magic money tree

just google it...you're welcome
