I am an independent trader based in London & will be in Singapore next week to test waters. If anyone if free to meet for a coffee to discuss markets/ commodities & network please drop me a line. Best wishes, Maszerati.
Hello Singapore based traders, My name is Gianluca and I have just moved to Singapore a week ago with a project to carry out. In a few weeks time I am going to open my own Prop. Trading company and I am looking for serious full-time individual proprietary traders to just share the expenses of renting an office in the city. Each of us will bring his own workstation, his systems and will use his preferred IB. i.e. we will be independent from each other. Am looking for individual traders who have the professional attitude, real passion and who can commit for at least 3 months rental share. Estimated budget is max S$1000/month p.p., if we put together a large number of traders we can rent a bigger unit hence the per head cost would be lower. Serviced office would be ok as they do not require long term contract commitment but one monthâs notice. Checked out on Suntec when I was here a few months ago, they asked about S$3000/month for a small unit, can fit 2/3 workstations, large window w/ bay view. Also believe we can have some negotiation power. My aim is to create a very professional although small trading floor where traders have the constant feeling of being in the market, exchange market views, quantitative info, research etc. I donât believe in trading on your own from your living room.. Something about me: I am Italian, am 30 yrs old and I have recently moved from London where I worked for a big European Inv. Banking in their Equity Derivatives sales trading desk for 5 yrs. I will be trading single stocks as well as indices futures on Asian (no knowledge) and European (good knowledge) underlyings. More info when we meet. Looking fwd to hearing from you. Best, Gianluca P.S. is there any foreigner who is trading as individual prop trader here in Singapore?
how do you guys get around the employment pass requirement to be able to rent somethign in Singapore? outside of just renting a room or staying at a hotel or knowing a fearless local , what other options are there?
likely nointerest1 is using some sort of investment status approach to gain permanent resident status, but normally an investment requires a substantial monetary commitment, sounds like he's trying to pull this one off using other traders' resources, not a bad idea but a bit low
Hi! I am trading in Singapore. It's good to meet you. If your are free, we may meet up and have a cup of coffee. yours, Buddha_E
i'm trading US stocks from Singapore. why do you call it "Prop Trading Company"? will you be providing capital to us like other proprietary trading firms and share the profit payouts? what about the internet connection? Does anyone know if we have "prop firms" in Singapore? I once visited a Phillip Securities trading room but it was more an arcade where traders pay nominal rent to trade using their platform at very low commissions (on own capital). I'm looking to trade with other Singaporeans too if there is more such offices. Regards,
UOB Schneider is in the UOB bldg in Raffles, they want 25k SGD up and give u 2:1 leverage to start. I dont remember how much they charge for the seat but it was pretty high. SGX listed products only i think.
is it advertised on their website? private message me if u know how i can make enquiries. besides SGX, i want to see if i can also trade NYSE/Nasdaq as well as forex. $25K up for 2:1 sounds like SGX only. Thanks for the tip.
