Yeah, that’s only if you were going there asking for backing in a market they have no experience in and would be taking a risk on you. If you want to trade a CME or Eurex product they will take you on based on you showing you don’t lose money and can put 10-20k up front. Or if going as a trainee you wouldn’t even need to be profitable. Just prove you’re worth them taking a chance on you
I think the biggest props like Jump Trading, Optiver or Citadel Capital can have access to almost all exchanges in the world, but probably their appetites are much higher than 200k from trader (in my humble opinion)
Yes totally. If you’re talking about those huge firms then you would need to be making millions already if you wanted them to access new exchanges for you. And also with firms that large they have outside shareholders and are mandated to only trade certain strategies in certain markets etc. In short, the odds of approaching Jump and asking them to back you trading an unconventional strategy are slim to none.
I think they have access to all exchanges I need. But yes, my small strategy, even if it slightly like their approaches, probably not worth extra discussions and approvals between a bunch of shareholders and departments.
