    Check your state's requirements. In my state 5 clients is the cutoff.

    0 -25 Million register with State
    25-30. It's your choice
    30 and above SEC

  2. Note that if you are trading futures, there are likely separate regulations. Consult the NFA website for details.

    I am a master advisor using IB's Friends & Family account. I have been trading a few accounts belonging to family without taking a share of their profits. Now two friends would also like me to manage their funds. I would like to change each account to give me 20% of all gains. I know I can easily elect to do that on the IB site but would I need to register with the state?

    I am talking about 5-6 sub accounts and no more than 10 million total under my management.

    And if I incorporate, would I need to file with the state or SEC?

    I am sure there are others here that manage money for others. How are you set up? Licences? Registrations?

    Anyone doing this thru IB?

    Hi,
    I am looking for a trader partner who has successfully managed account with good track record. Private or institution, please feel free to contact my email.

    I recommend myself to be an agent to market your managed account service. My approach would be off-line marketing. Just make sure that you have enough proven record on real live account, real money.

    You may send me email directly to assetnocsaille@yahoo.com

    Regards,
