I'm new to the forum and i'm interested in starting a career as a prop trader based in Vancouver, BC. Because of the personal situation i'm in I can either carry on with a career that i've already invested in which I don't enjoy any longer or I can follow where my passion lies and put my efforts into becoming a great trader. I've scoured through the listings on the Prop Firms section and even though similar questions come up regularly if anyone would be so kind as to share their insight and experiences currently or in the past with Bright Trading based in British Columbia i'd like to hear them. Any suggestions from those more experienced that have become successful traders would be appreciated.
Surely someone must work for them currently or in the past that's lingering around the forums? I'm taking in as much information as I can find so i'd like to hear from you seasoned traders in the Vancouver area. Where do you work? Where did you learn your skills? Where is a good place to start out for a guy that's traded off and on for years, has some money to work with and is willing to take the time to learn more?
Check out http://www.meetup.com/Professional-Traders/ in vancity. Couple of traders there that had previously worked in prop firms in the city.
