The Legal Dilemma with these prop firms

Quote from goldenarm:

What prop firm will give a newbie $1M-$3M in buying power? He'll be lucky to get $150K. The bigger leverage only goes to experienced, profitable traders with a large bankroll to begin with.

I get $250,000 right now and I can get more by asking, without any capital down. My account balance can even go negative.

Of course, I pay huge commissions because of this.
 
Quote from reid5525:

What if the company makes a violation, would the trader, being a member of the company be also liable, and could forfeit all or some of his deposit?

Not in our case, I can't comment on what other firms would do... quite unlikely by any broker/dealer IMO.
