    eX-CBOT member/floor/screen trader looking for prop firm outside of chicago or NY.

    Boca Raton sounds appealing.

    Anyone care to share actual experiences with firms down there?

    Would prefer Prop but could trade own capital.

    If I were you I would trade my own capital. 100% cut of the profits!! you cant beat that.

    Its nice to trade props capital but you only make a small protion of that.

    You can trade prop and get a 100% payout.

    The only time you should ever split profits is if you have no money up. If you can fund a prop account ($25,000), then you should NEVER accept less than a 100% payout.

    Do your homework and get the best deal (this doesn't just mean rates...it means software, news, benefits, etc) .
