I agree with the OP. Prop trading is an awful industry to be in, and if you're interested in macro research, asset allocation, portfolio...
Congrats. What study materials did you use? I have to take it again with my new firm. Ugh.
Any idea how I would go about that. Given the closing price of the dow jones index, how would I calculate the theoretical implied value of what...
Hey guys. Some advice would be greatly appreciated. I'm looking for published cases/studies (academic journals would be ideal) which show...
Ugh. Failed for the 3rd time today with a 66. I'm utterly shocked because I felt pretty good when I finished the exam. Pass perfect definitely did...
What was your highest pass perfect practice exam? I haven't broken 70 on any of my practice ones, so i'm getting very concerned.
I have taken all 4 practice exams on passperfect and have gotten between 62 and 69 in all of them. They seem harder than the actual 56;...

Six figures a month from equity pairs trading? Holy cow. That's pretty impressive, given that these guys are not using algos. And yes,...
I would need to wait for 1 month. If I fail again, I would need to wait 6 months, I believe. And no, I don't do drugs, and I barely drink.
EvOTrAdEr, I'm unable to send pm's, but if you can share any videos or other materials, that will be extremely helpful and much appreciated. Is...
I have taken the series 56 twice thus far and have failed both times. I'm pretty stunned given that I read the cboe study guide twice, pretty...
I took the series 56 for the 2nd time and failed it. I actually did worse than my first test, so this is quite embarrassing. I read the book...
One of the challenges that I'm working on is the application of a stop-loss threshold to intraday equity pairs. For the most part, I'm opposed to...
I took the series 56 for the first time back in late October and failed after studying a good amount for it and will be retaking later this month....
Our algorithm is mean reverting. It gets into a position when the spread deviates from the fair value by a certain amount. So let's say we're...
