Hi guys new to the thread just wondering how many there are trading macro or micro,

Im clearing futs through Maq down under and appreciate an idea based in Philipines seems to be plenty of opportunities around across asia US Is it worth looking at joining an aussie based firm to gain some extra ideas or are they all just focused intraday??

What are you looking for in Australia?

Probably correlation plays between the obvious Iron ore Miners / AUD / CAD/ banks stocks v Aussie curve .
Maybe not really the remit here .I have done the Prop thing in Europe for years so I am not interested in Jobbing for ticks against fake orders in indicies etc no edge nor desire there . Was just interested to see who or what else was about . I know the Aussie prop scene heavily focused on SFE IR so not interesed in that battle my timeframes are a little longer

If you review the prop threads on aussiestock this will give you an idea of what is out there.
The sentiment I got was that opportunity is limited. But of course if you are killing it then that is a different story. But if you are killing it why would you work for a firm? etc etc

Free coffee. Working for a firm is a long on coffee.

Let's do the sums. What size do you trade? What returns do you make? What % of those returns do you get to keep?

Let's watch as your usual sycophantic acolytes come in and defend your honor, like white knights.

I don't understand what the problem is. Isn't the forum to help people who cannot trade as well. If everyone knew everything then might as well close it down.

I'm just saying, it is a valid point even if you don't like it.
