A trader explains why proprietary trading firms require minimum capital and how profit-sharing works. He covers the barriers to entry, what separates successful traders from those who fail, and how to access the capital you need to trade.
So prop. Trading, I think, is. Is a great thing, especially because that's. That was one of the biggest barriers that I wish I could go back and change, realizing that in order to trade successfully, it's, it's, you need. You need a good capital fund. Like, you need at least 100 more, $100,000 or, or more to really be able to pay bills without putting the entire account on some crazy stuff like I used to do, which I don't recommend doing and I don't do to this day. So it is nice in the fact that you can do a profit share with another company, they can give you some funds to trade with. So that way you have access to day trading. You have access to be able to do a lot of these different trades that you couldn't do with $1,000 or $2,000 in a trading account.
