Funny stuff. True, there is a lot of crap in this business but I actually am happy that I trade with a prop firm. I used to be a ticket broker and my friends in the trading field joke whether or not I moved UP or DOWN on the "shady" career ladder. I personally think ticket scalpers are a little higher up. LOL.
As a prop trader, I can say that MVP's no.1, no.2 and maybe no.9 are so true! VOLUME'S no. 1 is also so very true. Funny and true thread!!
