Bright Trading???

Greetings,

Does anyone know if Bright Trading focuses on only stocks or futures? Or is it a mix between the two?

Thanks,
Eugene Mclaurin

They focus primarily on equities and a few of their trading styles. They do futures and options, but you'll need permission to do so due to the risk associated. Just e-mail Don, and do your due diligence. You'll need a series 7 too.

If you do futures, or options on futures, you will also need a Series 3.

Re: Bright Trading???

James, does Bright have a limit on the buying power you can get?

and what's their system for progressing profitable traders?

Re: Bright Trading???

I would suggest using the search feature over at the OTHER site. Don Bright is an active poster over there and there is plenty of information to read. For example...a quick search brought up the thread "Bright trading and any thoughts" with 181 posts (last one by Don Bright himself). You could also do a search for all the posts by him.

Of course, if someone has some good information there is no reason why the couldn't still add it here.

I wish I knew. I know when you start they limit you to the amount of capital. With special permission, I believe you can get more.

I took a pretty big turn in my trading career, so I won't be doing Bright. But I do think it could have something good to offer for others.
