    Hi I am trying to find
    1) A CTA or equally qualified and regulated in UK or EU who trades Spreads between Index Futures such as ES/YM or ES/ NQ or even spreads like Gold/ SIlver
    2) Other arb/ mean reverting type spreads mentioned in this video

    Doesn't the Eurex and LSE give you portfolio based margin?

    The spreads in the video? The Eurodollar flys and dflys now look way too tight to day trade, although guys at curveadvisor are doing long term trades. And the pack spreads are lethal even just looking at them on sim ... big risk, small rewards. Bone warned me on a previous thread

  5. My understanding is that US style CTA either doesn't exist or isn't favourable in UK, Europe. The preferred route for small funds/seeder hedge is to go the 'managed account' route. These guys deal with everything helping individuals starts funds and create track records.

    Sorry I didn't see that you're a Chinese broker. It would be great to hear more about these strategies in another thread.

    Do you want a European prop shop where you can trade your own account or be backed? www.towertradinggroup.com Dublin office are currently looking for experienced remote futures traders. Dan was trading for STA, which got taken over by http://www.marexspectronprotrader.com/ last I heard they had plenty of spare desks in London.

    I am looking for training and then using my capital + firms
    1) Any training by so called Props or education sellers sounds dubious and mostly it is about normal directional not specializing in such spreads...
    2) High end prop firm looking for maths /stats qualifications and exp and younger age.. I do not fit any of these!

    I had a look at the firms website but there is nothing about training as i mentioned above I am looking for training witha regulated firm specializing
    The two firms are perhaps good for those looking for execution/ infrastructure and already know and I have heard about this other person you mention but I am bit weary of education sellers
