  1. C'mon, money making genius.........HAHAHA!!!!!! he doesn't give a damn about anything but ripping off traders and making himself millions. Also who the hell cares about free lunch anyways. If you left Swift and made 30% more somewhere elese that should more than cover your lunch, breakfast, dinner, and likely your mortgage as well. With all thwe trades in London and Victoria leaving Montreal and others are not far behind. An office environment is the way to go however you are far better setting up a home office and trading with a few of your buddies in the basement and keeping way more profit. There are a couple firms out there that will continue to take all the real traders up in Canada. It is too bad really but not my problem.

    Anyways for my pick on which office to work, I'll take Montreal too, always good to work with the best.

  2. I don't think anyone is doing amex etfs anymore. There are few dinousours left but most of them get fired few weeks ago for crossing Arca. I think they are just copying hamilton and trading Nasdaq.

  4. EAG and EWJ are popular still. A few people trade SMH, XLE, and SPY.

  5. I had two colleagues trade at Richmond Hill about a year ago, while we were all waiting for the Mississauga office to be ready. They said the atmosphere was dingy and the technology archaic. If that's changed, someone please let us know.

    Kelowna is small i heard but Calgary and vancouver are big and good places with lots of vibe. there used to be some good traders in caglary but i think they got fired for screwing the amex specialist. I dunno about vancouver traders. the trainer there is really good though. Victoria was moving to a smaller office so i dunno about them now either. Richmond Hill is losing traders but i never heard why. Hamilton only has 6 guys but they are kickin everyone elses ass. Toronto has maybe 15 guys on payroll and is good like someone said because they can always watch what someone else is doing. everyone should trade there for a while just to see how everyone else is doin.
