I'm trying to make a decision between SMB Capital and Keystone Trading. Are there any current or past traders at these firms that can offer some insight?
SMB sounds like a bad deal being offered on a silver platter garnished with figs and olives. Honestly now, only people with poor understanding of how a business is run would sign up with these guys. They give you all the downside from a career perspective and take all the upside.
probably SMB along with a lot of other prop firms out there. But to be fair, there are a number of prop firms that are decent, the issue would be the definition of a prop firm. Nowadays, prop firm and hedge funds are interchangeable.
I think both are very solid and reputable firms. I'm with SMB since they offered me better conditions for my personal requirements. I'm a remote trader.
I wouldn't be able to trade unless they sat me on down the desk. Plus, she's multilingual. ::::drools::::
smb's rates aren't competitve at all. they're probably ok for a new trader.if you're paying over .003 for 20-1 you're getitng screwed
