    care to explain why swift in vancouver isn't a good choice?

    what are the other alternatives?

    TY

    is pair trading another prop shop or do they offer courses only? can u please explain
     
  4. Bright Bros has an office up there supposedly very good for pairs trading. To be honest if you have the cash and do the series 7 they are a better long term option than Swift

    Thanks for the info.

    For some reason i'm having a hard time coming up with with bright bros location in vancouver, although i see on their web site supposedly they have an office here.

    I am new to prop trading, so may i ask why you don't think swift is not a good place to work or start? why is bright supposedly better?

    If you also happen to know about the percentage of profits that swift at vancouver lets u keep, i would appreciate it
     
  6. If you are new you can always give swift a shot you dont need any qualifications or deposit money like you do at Bright. Though you will only get about 30% after costs so you wont make squat for at least 5-8 months

    when u say 5-8 months, does it mean they increase the percentages? what is the highest percentage swift would split?
     
  8. I know quite a few guys there everyone starts on 30% you make more money you get a bigger cut.

    Start making money and being positive month on month then worry about the next level as most never get that far.

    What he said :)

    Swift is okay to start out but very few stay for the long haul...they have offices everywhere and you just happen to live in an area with a concentration of very good traders trading through Bright in B.C. Check out all the various firms (not sure who else is there, title?) so you get a good idea what's best for you.
     
  10. Title Has a location in Vancouver and seems a much better choice in regards to payout and overall company structure
