hello, i am working in the back office of an investment bank in asia. my work is mostly accounting on fixed income products and i really dont have insider info. i wanna daytrade the nyse and compliance will not let me since i work for a bank. do you see any problems if i ask a friend in canada to open an account with a prop firm, say golden, and i nighttrade it in asia? please advise.
personally I fear being hit with large wooden sticks, but this sounds like a good test of your risk tolerance
Just open an account with a prop firm in Asia. Most so-called prop firms in Asia don't require license and so no record in US.
