Hi, Im trying to find prop./day trading companys that land capital and train people here in Calgary. So far I've run into swift trade and title trading, wondering if there are more. I have about 1 year and a half of full time currency and stock trading experience. Any suggestions/info is very appreciated.

Regards,

Mike

Heard good things about Title, more so than Swift.

Take a look at remote prop as well. Many firms offer remote services, take a look: http://www.tradersnarrative.com/list-of-proprietary-trading-firms-735.html
