I think it may be time to update the above list...many are no longer around, period.....and many are just "sub-llc's". And, I think the term "day trade" firms doesn't describe serious trading firms..our people do a heck of lot more than "day trade" - often keeping many (many) positions for days, weeks, months, whatever fits their tradng style. If my memory serves me right, there were about 120 or so back a few years, and probably less than 10 (viable, broker dealer, exchange member firms), and only a handful that can or will accomodate serious traders who need to use enough capital to make a good living. (LOL, of course I'm a bit biased, but at the same time, I like to see facts here on the board whenever possible). Maybe someone could take the time to sort out the above list. BTW, 100% payout with simply a token amount of capital is required...along with a license. All the best, Don
