Hi, I have worked in Prop Trading since late 2004 , firstly as a backed trader through a London firm and more recently by backing myself. I had great success when backed but have struggled while backing myself. Are there any prop firms in UK/Ireland that still actively back traders with the firms capital ? Thanks
Can't answer your question, but i am intrigued to know why you had great success when backed by others but not when you presumably traded your own money?
Day trade the world gives you the capital to trade without deposit. I believe you can open with them in the UK because they have an office there: Go on the home page and there is a map there www.daytradetheworld.com
No firm is going to let you trade with no money up. This has been discussed here a thousand times. If someone says there is one then it is a scam where they make you pay for their "education" first and then let you lose a small portion of the money you just paid.
You're misinformed. There are a few. Depends what type of trading, Anyway. There could be numerous reasons for this. Doesn't make the person a failed trader who's not worth backing. Only takes some time to assess if there's opportunity for both parties.
There is a proprietary futures trading firm called Positive Equity located in Dublin. They also recruit trainees.
If you have a track record of a controlled disciplined account (doesn't have to be making big bucks) PM me with your stats I may be able to help
There are couple of firms in Dublin that would back you with firms capital. Already mentioned Positive Equity, Myriad trading, Geneva trading.
