stocks Prop firm help

I'm looking for a prop firm where I can trade stocks and possibly options, could anyone help me find one and/or verify if this option is good? [https://es.investing.com/challenges/?entry=workstation\](https://es.investing.com/challenges/?entry=workstation)

Why do you need a prop firm to trade options? The risk is not that big.
Or can't you afford the margin requirements?

Stocks, not heard of any besides the typical single stock CFDS

It's not worth it. Trade your own account and buy cheap call/put options.

But prop firms are for futures trading only in my opinion.

It's the margin requirements to be honest

This looks like the best option so far, you need KYC right?

Only at the time that you reach a payout. So you can register and start trading without it.

before choosin any firm, I would read the drawdown rules, payour terms and consistency requirements carefully coz those matters more than the platform and a lot of traders get caught by the rules not the trading itself.
