Pros

Very little positive to say. This a firm that makes commissions, and also takes a 20% cut if you do well.

Cons

See Above. I would avoid this as a productive career choice.

You are their business model

Recommend

Pros

Access to capital. You can get leveraged 10-20 times

Cons

Good ol Vegas boys taking you for a ride. YOU are their business model, risky behavior encouraged (despite initial speeches about the importance of risk management) because you’re paying commissions, which overtime will significantly eat out of your return. (I.e make Bright tons of money) Most, and by that I mean at least 9 out of 10 new traders won’t make it, but they don’t really care because they can get another cohort of fools whom they can lure with “modern strategies”. If you absolutely know what you’re doing, by that I mean a proven track record with real money and you need leverage- it is for you, otherwise do yourself a favor and buy an index fund.
