Prop shops risk management

[sharp10]

Hello everyone.
I was wondering if anyone of you trading at a prop shop know exactly the risk management policies in place to prevent any of the traders to blow out the shop and how comfortable you are.

I am looking for a good shop.
Thanks to all
A.

if a 9/11 happens mid day i think many a prop shop could be in trouble.with so many 5k down's and 30-1 leverage i can't see how anyone can manage that risk in a huge interday event. thats why eveyrone has 5 or 10k down then thats all you lose as the house would ahve a tough time getitng money from most people

Thanks Joey. Good point.
I am looking for a good shop, any name you could throw out there?
I am looking for a total leverage of about 1 to 2 mil.
Thanks.
