Propriety Trading firms in India and opportunities

[Karthikkrishna]

Well. If one has a profitable strategy why should one work for a prop firm. Work for oneself. If there is shortage of funds rather borrow funds give interest, make more money and work for oneself. If it is about experimenting with others money to clear our concepts and find out if strategy is profitable then prop firm would be a good option. Am i missing something ?

You are missing the whole thing. Trading should never be done under pressure to make money. It should be done only on money that you can take risk upon. Borrowing money to trade is the worst idea one can have. In trading you must have patience without which the best strategies will fail.

When you are under the pressure to make money which you will be in if you are borrowing money on interest you will have no patience.

Agree its a good idea to trade by keeping prop firm guy under pressure.

The Prop firm is not under any pressure because they are only trading on funds they can afford to risk.
