    I am an experienced trader (ex floor trader, market maker etc) looking for a legit prop firm to trade futures. I am quicking learning that many of the prop firms are nothing more than scams, playing the same games that have been around for years with a slightly different twist. Would appreciate being directed to a legit prop firm interested in trading futures. Will be in
    philadelphia next week, anything in the area ? Thanks in advance.
