คราวนี้มาดู Directory กันครับ ข้างล่างเป็นบทความที่เขาเขียนอธิบายเพิ่มไว้


I’ve been looking into proprietary trading firms (known across the pond as ‘trading arcades’) but it is frustrating since there isn’t a comprehensive list of prop trading firms anywhere. So I did the grunt work and combined the different online lists and directories to create the most comprehensive list of proprietary trading firms out there. I still may have missed one or two, so let me know if you can’t find a prop shop that should be on the list below.
There are so many firms out there, and they offer so many different combination of fees, environments, training, remote/on site, market specialization, training, etc that you really have to do your homework. Start by asking around for reputable firms but don’t be afraid to check out a new firm (as long as you do your due diligence). Nothing beats going to their location and pressing flesh and taking a look around. The great thing for traders is that there are a lot of firms out there, so be picky.


Here are some additional thoughts:

• Find out all fees you may be charged (not just commissions)
• Canadians have the bonus of not needing Series 7
• Read the contract!! (or have a lawyer read it for you)
• Do they offer training? mentoring? by who and how? for how long?
• Who are the owners?
• Talk to those who have gone through the program
• One trick pony (rebate)? or multiple strategies and markets?
• What is the vibe in the office? what kind of people work there?
• What software & trading platforms do they use?
• How up to date is their hardware and software?
• Access to proprietary technology software or is it all off the shelf?
• How long have they been around?
• Do you need a license? Will they sponsor you?
• Check and confirm their regulatory affiliations and exchange membership(s)
• Look up any regulatory infractions, disciplinary actions or judgments against them
• Ask for a copy of the firm’s most recent financial statements
• Get feedback on the firm & the plan offered you from other traders (EliteTrader and other messageboards)
• Confirm their clearing firm and make sure it is a financially stable, reputable one
