Is Trillium Trading a successful group of traders? Does anybody know anyone there?

 

Did you give them a look. I'm in south florida too; any info would be helpful.

 

I'm originally a Florida resident I toke mid office job with an investment bank in PA 2 years ago and I'm am relocating back to Florida in June. and I will be trading with a prop firm, there are some good options out there now in S. Fla. here's a few:
Trillium Trading
Echo
Bright
Assent (several offices)
Broad Street Trading
First New York Securities **(Maybe the best on the street right now)
Pro Trade Securities

...I'm personally leaning towards going with Pro Trade or Broad Street

 

Assent has a place in Boca Raton and Fort Lauderdale as well>

Great guys that are very good traders

 

Assent has an office on south beach as well
on Lincoln Rd.

I work in the office ...PM me if you need more details
we have some good traders in there..

Same with FTL and boca...good traders in those offices as well

 

Do you think a Canadian would have any chance with one of these firms (trading from their Florida offices) ?

I am looking to move to Florida for personnal reasons but I am unfamiliar with working permits/status.

I do have 3 year track record of trading derivatives
