lol nah. i'm a very specialized prop trader so if people want to talk about short-term trading i can chime in (holding periods < 1 day). so my guess is just as good as anyone elses when it comes to the type of trading most people do

but this market just keeps going up and up on air. don't really know what to think

While you guys were wasting time discussing low beta phone carriers, you missed two very compelling (high risk) trades.

How does one become a prop trader? I have been trading for years on my own and I would like to break into it, but I have no idea how.
