Now that i have some money to throw around, I've decided to try my hand at Trader Investing. I've tried Trading myself, but I am Horrible. So I figure, why not Invest in someone who actually knows what they are doing? I can Invest up to 100mil a day at the moment (although actual numbers will most likely be 2-3 days, depending on the market), and this may increase as time passes.
I Do have some stipulations;

--- Proper collateral is expected, don't expect me to hand you money and say "go at it!"
--- Terms are Negotiable, such as Length of Contract and Dividends, but I truthfully, I expect only a Fixed ROI (does not matter how much you actually make from the Investment, I only get a set ).
--- Investment Experience is preferred and Trading experience is Required. Large investments will require that you provide some proof you can handle them.

Strongly recommend you give it another try.

The old "Buy low, Sell high" is still a universal constant so if you're serious about Trade then you will prosper.

Otherwise, save up that 100mil a day until you've got enough to get in on one of the semi-regular bond offerings that some of MD's finest put up from time to time.

Caveat Emptor.

The biggest Obstacle for me not the Concept but simply I don't have an eye for the market.

It is really hard to not make at least 3-5% per month ROI trading on your capital, which is what you will get from Collateralised loans. Pretty much anything will have that kind of margin in it and you will only need to turn it once a month to make what you would make from investing. I would agree that an eye for the market is needed to make big bucks, but it isnt needed for that sort of ROI.

Investing works when you have a lot of money and no time (or inclination). Investing 100m here and there and dealing with collateral will be more time and hassle than doing some small scale trading.

Also why do you need to demand both experience and collateral? The general idea of collateral is that it's none of your business what they do with the money, because you cover your capital (and interest) with assets in any case. You're not making yourself a very attractive lender.

Good Luck

Imagine a man walking into a huge swiss bank. As he reaches the desk, the woman at the desk asks him to wait a minute since she's on the phone. The man grabs the phone out of her hand, and tells her he's about to do 'Big Business', so she better call her boss down. He enters the boss' office, and drops his life savings on the desk. The boss opens the sack, expecting millions, but finds a mere handful of dirty coins.
The End.

I'll give you 100m, if you would tell me what the difference between that man and you.

Hi, I am interested in working with you on your venture. I am more interested in playing the market than PVP and have created this alt for the sole purpose of trading. I have several strategies to influence the market to push out competition and am looking for capital to increase buying power.

Although my toon is new, I am investing training in cybernetics to use level 5 training implants, and will be purely trade-focused once the cybernetics is out of the way. I am currently making between 30% and 110% profit on several items and now it is just about increasing scale (number of items being traded and reach)

If you are interested please feel free to mail me. I will be on my PC in around 6 hours from now!
