Retail traders around the world have always kept\u00a0an eye on Wall Street. After all, it’s the center of the financial world.<\/p>\n
Most traders can only dream of\u00a0trading on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange or at a big Wall Street proprietary trading firm.<\/p>\n
What most retail traders don’t understand is that The Street has a new address. Most of the firms that were on or very near Wall Street have moved to other parts of Manhattan. And a few firms, including SMB, are hiring traders from places like Texas, Europe, and Indonesia to trade remotely.<\/p>\n
“This is a trend that we expect to continue … and we are structuring our business to take advantage of it.” Says Mike Bellafiore, Founding Partner of SMB.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
In the old days, if you wanted a career as a professional trader, you had to move to New York City and compete with the best and brightest candidates from Ivy League universities.<\/p>\n
But now, retail traders from places like Michigan, Alabama, or Singapore can earn a spot at a firm like SMB by simply demonstrating positive results and that they know how to control risk.<\/p>\n
SMB is sought after by both retail and professional traders because of the training and culture that has produced so many great traders.<\/p>\n
SMB is\u00a0working even harder to bring excellent training to retail traders who may be able to demonstrate that they have what it takes to join our firm.<\/p>\n
