Does anyone know how much a proptrader gets as a commission on realized profits? Let's say you work for a firm, no wage, no own capital requirements, only commission and you make +50% on the account/year.

I think it depends on the firm you work for... but an investment bank prop position will pay you around 10% on the account.

Yeah it depends on the firm. The one I'm on the fence with right now lets me keep 100% of the profits - but I put up my own capital.
