Pros

Good salary to stay in the company

Cons

No training and huge costs. You will end up spending time in the company without being a trader anyhow as the company doesn't care if you make money or not. They want their volumes done from you. Eventually you will be a few years in the business where traders from other companies are skilled in making money and you know only how to do volumes. So outside OSTC you have no career.

Firstly thank you for taking the time to leave a review and note your positive comments in reference to salary. With regards to your comments on training, we believe that we do provide comprehensive formal training not only at the outset but throughout a trader’s career. We also believe first-hand experience in the markets is key to developing successful traders. Our model emphasises involvement in live markets from the early stages of training, encouraging traders to execute a high number of trades/volume so as to gain knowledge and understanding through practise. As an OSTC trader’s career progresses risk parameters expand. This affords Senior Traders more autonomy in their style of trading, short/long term position approach and position size.
