All you can really do is find professionals at these firms on LinkedIn and reach out via LinkedIn or email (there are example cold outreach templates on this site). Send a short, simple message of 3-4 sentences that explains your background and how you could contribute to the firm.

Getting a referral or going through headhunters might help your case, but I’m assuming those are not options if you’re self-taught and did not study these topics at university.

The good news is, people at prop trading firms are often more receptive to networking and cold outreach because they don’t get bombarded with emails from students like investment bankers do.

Sorry, we don’t have a list of prop trading firms that let you do this, as it’s not the site’s core focus and is more of a supplemental topic.

Sorry, I’m not sure about that one (and sorry for the long delay here – your comment didn’t appear in the admin interface initially). I think with the current crypto market, it will be tough to find good/legitimate prop trading firms, so it might be better to start elsewhere.

I ve been trying to find a good prop firm that trades crypto and was wondering if you had any insight
The ones mentioned around are FTMO , 5% ers and a few others the only issue with this ones for me they dont seem to have a training programme

Thanks. We don’t really track trading platforms on this site because most of our audience is interested in deal-based roles such as investment banking and private equity. The trading articles are more like supplemental topics.

Honestly, I would probably not pursue this route unless you actually want to “trade” (i.e., trade frequently all day) rather than use a long-term / buy-and-hold strategy. Most of these platforms are geared toward people who want to be day traders. But I’m honestly not sure of the best options or the specific companies/platforms in Canada.

??? I’m not sure I understand your question. We don’t post actual jobs here, just descriptions of different career paths and industries.
