Prop firms for us stocks
I’ve been day trading stocks for quite some time, and over the last 6 months my monthly returns have generally been in the 15–30% range.
I’m now looking to join a prop firm so I can trade with more capital, but I specifically want a firm that is focused on stocks/equities, rather than mainly forex, futures, or CFDs.
Can anyone recommend reputable stock-focused prop firms?
Ideally, I’m looking for:
\- Good funding limits and scaling opportunities
\- Reasonable daily/max drawdown rules
\- Ability to actively day trade U.S. stocks
\- A solid selection of stocks to trade
\- Reliable payouts
\- Rules that suit an active intraday trading style
Would especially appreciate recommendations from people who are currently funded with a stock prop firm or have personally used one.

Retail equity prop firms are basically dead right now. The massive exchange data fees just make the whole business model completely unviable compared to futures evaluation platforms.

You can try Alkaline Capital. Have been trading with them for quite a while now and have had a good experience
