With no two traders sharing the same approach, each gets to choose how they run their desk - who they sell to, how they sell, what they sell, and how much, which creates an entrepreneurial work environment. We provide our traders with a base salary during training and transition them to commission with uncapped earning potential. Our culture is second to none at Tampa International and the majority of our staff have been with us for more than 15 years.
