I am really looking to compare with a retail broker such as TS who I am with currently. So I get $10 for 500 shares and $16 for 1000 shares round trip. How does that compare with a prop firm? Can you pls give me an idea of both cases? Cheers.
10/500 shares = $.02/share (round trip) 16/1000 shares = $ .016/share (round trip) Props charge you anywhere from .003 - .007/share per side (some more, some less, but this is a general range) Plus with retail, you get 4-1 leverage whereas in prop, they give you (on average) 20-1.
"interviewed" "get accepted into a prop firm" .... funny terms. all u need is the capital contribution.
HEy Swiftmike That was some great explanation you gave there I did have a interview at 1 firm but the guy was very nice and explained me how the system works and all
