i am thinking of setting up a shared office space or ‘trading floor’ where individuals can share the cost of becoming more professional and take there trading to the next level.
i have been involved in setting up this sort of thing for small business’ where entrepreneurs rent a space within a bigger office to keep costs down, while setting there business free from the home.
These shared trading floors or ‘trader hubs’ as i am thinking of calling them will include all sorts of benefits or traders at a fixed cost rental per week,
up to date fast computers
individual trading space
subscription news feeds included
Tv feeds
Accountancy
communal areas to discuss ideas
would basic spelling skills be needed to sign up to such an arrangement?
yes, that was sarcastic. surely you’d want people to sign a lease or rent CONTRACT, and those documents ought to have correct spelling if you expect them (the documents) to have any sense of legality.
+1 for the initial composition
-30 for not bothering to proof-read it before posting
0 for my level of interest (not related to spelling)
i’m thinking this would be good for either totally novice traders that don’t have a decent setup just yet, or for professionals who absolutely need an “office” space for tax reasons and/or to separate their work from domestic life and intrusions. the former likely won’t have the money, and the latter will likely avoid bad spelling.
there might be a third mid-range group, but with mobile access and affordable multi-screen home computers that don’t even need to be all that powerful, is this even marketable???
“would basic spelling skills be needed to sign up to such an arrangement?”
Capitalize first letter of a sentence man… Lazy error.
“yes, that was sarcastic. surely you’d want people to sign a lease or rent CONTRACT, and those documents ought to have correct spelling if you expect them (the documents) to have any sense of legality.”
Again, more lazy capitalization errors…

Never begin a sentence with a numerical value and this group of text is missing numerous punctuation marks…
“i’m thinking this would be good for either totally novice traders that don’t have a decent setup just yet, or for professionals who absolutely need an “office” space for tax reasons and/or to separate their work from domestic life and intrusions. the former likely won’t have the money, and the latter will likely avoid bad spelling.”
The “that” in the second line should be “who” since you are referring to “traders” who are people and not an inanimate object…
The comma before “or” in the first sentence is not needed as you have an independent clause and a dependent clause in the sentence… You only would need it if you were separating two independent clauses or had more then two alternatives to discuss…
Also breaking 1st grade capitalization rules throughout the rest of the post…
I would recommend proof reading your post next time.
Hey Lenny. I’ve thought about this sort of setup before and would be interested once I’m trading full-time.
Not sure if traders would want all the services that you listed. I think having a simple desk with a fast internet connection will be all that’s needed. Any trader who wants to rent a seat / desk can bring in their own computer and buy for themselves any services that they require (news feed, accounting etc). Basically I see it more as a social hub where traders can congregate and work out of home in a semi-professional environment (trading at home gets real lonely and can be distracting).
Your target demographic will probably be successful full-time traders though. Hobby traders probably can’t afford the rent.
And who cares how this guy types. He’s just shooting in the breeze with an idea.
