      Pros

      SMB offers the unique opportunity to undergo guided learning as a developing trader attempting to find their niche in the market. There are numerous resources that assist a new trader in finding edge and understanding how their stats determine their effectiveness as a trader. Traders have unlimited and unfettered access to cutting edge technology including automated trading strategies and screeners. Have the chance to learn directly from some of the best 7 figure traders on the street. Comprehensive risk management strategies to keep a new trader in the game for longer, helping to narrow the learning curve in an extremely unforgiving career.

      Cons

      None. One of if not the best proprietary trading firms in the City.

      Pros

      Excellent hands on training program that includes daily access to partners with an emphasis on the importance of hard work, communication, being part of a team and developing your strengths Morning meeting highlighting the stocks in play with technical and fundamental analysis Great culture where the employees get along with one another and everyone is happy to answer questions and share their experiences Amazing state of the art technology that gives me an edge against my competitors in the marketplace Collaborative approach where 7 figure traders lead teams and help to mentor younger traders by sharing their trading ideas and talking through stocks they are trading in real time

      Cons

      Becoming a successful trader takes time. Myself included, people generally think that success will come quickly. This is not true. Becoming a consistently profitable trader is a process where the breakthrough often comes long after the hard work, dedication and long hours is put in. There is nothing that SMB can do to change that realization. However; I am sure many people will blame management for their lack of success. At the end of the day, there is nothing that either partner can do to change the fact that the majority of traders fail. The only con that I can think of is that there can be better communication with regards to locating shares of stock in order to get short when stocks are hard to borrow.
