Re: looking for retail day traders

If they are successful traders why do they need to trade someone else's
capital? They have their own.   For myself and I expect for many other
traders, one of the main reasons I became a trader was to be my own boss.
Trading for someone else,  even if well compensated, is just another boss.

I posted a message about a month ago looking for traders who were interested
in trading for a large firm (1000+ traders) trading firm capital with a good
payout and generous amounts of trading capital. Guess how many people
answered that were SUCCESSFUL day traders who supported themselves trading
and had track records to show (even records from profitable personal
accounts?) ZERO!!! I got about 30 responses but not a single experienced
trader. Maybe the experienced guys had no interest in trading a firm's
capital, but I found it pretty suprising.
