I have a mathematics degree, am a programmer, started trading options 7 months ago while keeping my full time job, have written programs to run my technical analysis algorithms on equities, read books religiously, and have had incredible success so far this year. Yet I can find absolutely no way to break into the trading industry. Prop firms suck. Can't move to NY...looks like the only option for people like me is to trade on your own, learn great capital preservation, and try hard to survive over time as you have...would you agree or are there other ways to break into the industry? Thanks, and great thread.
