When I joined this forum, I thought most guys on here were making 250k+ a year consistently. I was very wrong.
Pretty sure Chicago is hot in June. I barely do volume with the CFE anymore. Maybe 1000 contracts a day. They've somehow managed to offend almost every FCM. But I'll let you know next time I come out. Been crazy busy lately.
The mmakers in the currency futures options pits considered $150K as "getting by". After a $24K seat lease and $20K clerk(split 3-4 ways), it really was. Access method and capital expenditures have changed, profitability is probably same or worse. You need money to make money.
I'll assume this post is real, even though others hint as a troll. But what do you trade, and how? Timeframe, risk tolerance, etc misc details...if you don't mind disclosing. Why do you need anybody...just scale/grow it on your own, you already seem talented enough.
Lol most are on demo after huge losses, most of the live traders lose, I'm profitable and i make very little sadly, think 2k- 5k which i buy bikes with, 1 hobby funds another.
OK then I will trade less and take more holidays. So that I can stay at ET. OMG I will have lots of holidays!!! ops:
