How the desk trades with you

1. You open a trade and pay a flat fee per contract. That is the most it can cost you.
2. The desk backs your trade with its own capital — a small allocation at first, stepping up as the trade proves itself, protected by its own stop, which trails the move as it goes your way.
3. You are paid 90% of what the desk’s allocation makes. If it makes nothing, you are paid nothing.
