Cheers MRC&CO

If anyone remembers please post or PM me.

I've been in touch with media at SIG, however I don't know if the interviews will eventuate.

This is probably not the smartest of questions but,

Does anyone know if companies such as Propex consider people that graduated University a few years back, with non-financial degrees, for their trainee programs. Such as Engineers who trade in their spare time etc.

thanks for the link TH, I think I've read that a while back when I did a search on the forum.

the uncertainty of not knowing when you become profitable is what bugs me, but I guess it is always good to try for the best, but prepare for the worst.

oh well.. no point thinking about it until I hear from them again.

I got invited to the initial stage starting with the 1 month online trial in a few weeks. I'm a bit nervous, despite trading now for amost 5 years - I think it's mostly quitting a job where I have great conditions and have a good reputation. I'm firmly committed to becoming a trader but I guess that first step is the hardest.

Trembling Hand / T/A / Others, any advice on those taking the first step outside of the regular work life?

You will wonder why you hang on to your regular work life for so long.

And I assume you are not burning your bridges with your current work, so you can always go back to the same/similiar conditions and reputation you currently enjoy, if things don't workout.

Should also consider how long it will take for you to become profitable. From what I've heard people from their trading course are on the simulator for at least six months and then you have to have a decent clip size to make a decent income.

Good luck.

Thanks for the advice all.

I'm really looking forward to trying and if I don't get in I can always go back to what I was doing.

Regardless, i'm convinced that trading is what I want to do full time so whether it be via a prop shop (ideal) or my own capital, I'm concentrating all my efforts towards that goal.

It's not easy, but then again being successful in such an endeavour never is.

Good luck. I just got offered a prop deal yesterday. Very happy with it and going to be a lot of hard work ahead.

Ad says:
"This first month is to be completed online (i.e. from your home)."

Is this held during the daytime or anytime that suits us?



TH,

What are the markets are you allowed to trade on? ES, Crude Oil, SPI, Hang Seng, etc.
