    Any traders in Richmond, VA?

    Anyone in Richmond, VA interested in Daytrading full-time. I am currently getting signed up at a prop firm (remote of course, being here in Richmond). Would like to get a few people together to trade during the day. Possibly trying to open a branch office in the future.
