Retail vs Prop

Discussion in 'Retail Brokers' started by Canuck709, Apr 23, 2009.

  1. Can anyone help me to understand the main differences between the most common version of a prop shop i.e. Bright Trading and a retail shop Interactive Brokers?
     
  2. Leverage
     
  3. r-in

    r-in

    Leverage is one part, but I bet if you call Bright, or Echo(the main 2 I know of) when the platfrom crashes, you get a person who isn't condescending, or knows nothing but the script they read.
