Discretionary Proprietary Trading Firms

Hi,

I tried to post this in Proprietary Traders group, but got no replies so will try here instead.

3 questions for anyone that knows anything about Discretionary Prop Trading Firms:

1) What are the best discretionary prop trading firms, ideally NYC, that lets you trades multiple products? Not High frequency trading or market making etc. My style is discretionary global macro. I trade on 2 frequencies, Intraday S&P emini futures and more swing trading and long term in other asset classes. Very similar to a PM at Moore, Tudor etc

2) I have a fair bit of experience and not in need to be trainef all that much, just want capital, a social environment and build a track record over 2-3 years so that I can pitch myself for a discretionary Global Macro HF. Am I dillusional thinking a Global Macro HF would hire for example a FNYS prop trader as a junior trader ?

3) If I was top 5% of the traders at a prop firm, how much capital will a prop firm sponsor you with the first year, second year, third year etc. I want to get a ball park figure for how much I can make if I have 20-30% stable return over a year.

Thanks,

K
