Does anyone know of Prop Trading Firms that offer a base salary?

[jamesgerrard]

Does anyone know of a UK or European based Prop firm that pays a base salary. I am already in with a Prop house in London - it is going well but its slow progress. I can imagine it could take me some time to be a consistantly profitable trader - It would be fantastic if i could have a base salary (even v small) so i dont have to worry if i can eat or not in my first year.

Many Thanks to any help that can be provided

think kyte and ostc used to, but it's doubtful they'll go near you unless you've already proven you can be consistently profitable.

I think Van Der Moolen did but I don't think they are an active prop trading firm in London any more.

Sorry for the newb question, but is props Proprietary Trading?

... is props Proprietary Trading?

It is indeed - essentially meaning, trading company funds for profit (or loss).
