    Anyone heard of Savi Trading?

    Never suggested it wasn't on the level. Nothing wrong with paying for an eductaion. However, people should do their due diligence before handing over any cash. IMO, I would make enquiries beyond the virtual world because opinions [here] can be biased, and identities hidden. So, do your due...

    How important is it to be creative in your trading?

    Sorry Paul, I don't really want to get into a protracted debate because firstly, I'm sure everyone has a view on this, and secondly, the debate would move away from the theme of Joe's initial posting. All I am trying to say is, that to be [consistently] profitable trading the markets...

    How important is it to be creative in your trading?

    Quite simply because, in spite of the random nature of financial markets, they are efficient. If a person believes they have a holy grail of trading methods, you can be sure that the rest of the world is looking to improve on theirs. That process of improvement alters the market dynamic that...

    How important is it to be creative in your trading?

    Hey Joe, it's great to have your input. I totally agree with your perspective regarding the creative process. After all, it is that exact process that has given us many of the decision support tools that traders use every day. In my case, the same creative process has allowed me to identify...

    Am I hireable? (moved from: Trading for a Firm)

    Thanks for your responses. Much appreciated. fantastic: No thanks. Been a salesman before and don't want to go back to that. When I make a decision to change direction, I burn my bridges. I am 100% committed to the future, or nothing. Mr. Charts: Firstly, day trading from home isn't an option...

    The pitfall of a succesful remote trader

    Agreed. I didn't start this thread as a complaint. More, as an advisory and to see what others think. Looks like I hit upon the big guns at T2W straight out, and I'm grateful for the feedback. Truly :smart: Any suggestions as to where "somewhere more respectable" could be? Maybe I should write...

    The pitfall of a succesful remote trader

    Fair enough. Valid comments there, although, I think that the hundreds/thousands of people who want to be in my position probably have/had the same opportunity as me (pay to train and if you're good enough, get hired). So, it's not as though I am in a "privileged" position. And I don't agree...

    Am I too old to start trading for a Market Maker?

    Roger, I'm in my fifties and only recently started (full-time) on that road (day trading futures for a Prop Firm).

I am a successful remote trader (Bund futures) with one of the growing number of arcades out there. I started on this journey about 9/10 months ago and I want to share an element of my...

    Am I hireable? (moved from: Trading for a Firm)

    I've moved this from the other thread as I realise it may be more appropriate here. Hi All, I'm new to this forum so please let me quickly say "Hi", and I hope everyone is making good money from the markets. My reason for writing is to ask if anyone knows whether I am barking up a tree, or if...

    Am I hireable?

    Hi TF, thanks but I don't want to pay and have to train again, which appears to be the pre-requisite to joining these firms (I have contacted them).
