    That is not how hedge funds reach out to a retail trader.

    A college-educated retail trader will need to apply for a job at a hedge fund or institutional trading firm just like everyone else. It will be the education (academic) background that gets the college-educated retail trader's foot in the door before they'll look at the trading background if any.

    You'll be competing against professional institutional traders that are well educated with job experience of trading millions of dollars but looking for a new job/new firm for whatever reason or you will be competing with those that the hedge fund is offering a position to someone at another professional trading firm to try to get them to leave their current trading position to go work (most likely relocate) for the hedge fund.

  3. I have though, actually know someone who runs a hedge fund. I already have someone joining me as well to assist in what I am doing, that is far larger than I am. You guys have all the answers, I know. So I wouldn't come on here if I didn't already have some things rolling.

    You guys are just a bunch of negative nancy's and act like you know everything. Seriously not trying to be rude, but you're telling me how things are and to "go try it" when in the real world I already have and am doing it. So it's some what of a joke you saying this like you know. No offence.

    I haven't read the whole thread, but you want to work and trade. So that's either Day Trade Futures, Crypto or Asia or Europe before or after work, or Swing Trade with trailing Stops

  7. You come around every month or so for a couple of days with the same old nonsense. You and that other limp piker, Laissez faire, offering your expert analysis then when shit goes against you, it’s excuse time. A day or two later you’re sniffing around the topstep forum. Rinse and repeat.

  8. You aren't even reading my full post, neither you nor tao or whatever. Do you even actually actively day trade? I don't want to debate with trolls man, it's not a good use of my time.

    Increasing at or comfortably above inflation rate is not the same as exponential.
