Man!... "hey broker...give me that godamn platform Ive been asking questions about , hey you move over find your own connection and but your own desk...and dont disturb me idiot... hey janie.. no calls no interuptions please...."ok Paul....".. Im gonna trade me some strategies and scalp my way to heaven goddamnit!".. Yeah these Dudes are at the top of their game.. however it does help to bolster your profits by having huge swathes of cash boosting margins upon which you can earn an income.. although at the same time lets be frank.. these guys are surrounded by MIT Quants and the very best brains to add even more value to risk analysis, hedge potential and optimizations that thier individual trader success gains more edge even if the result is 3% points higher probability of return, that still beats aspects and areas of the market Isnt it inspiring and uplifting to know theres so much money available in the markets...
