What about balances under $25,000 USD? Part of it also depends on the strategy also and how well you trust the client. Are they trading intraday at a medium or high frequency? Perhaps you'd have to watch them first before giving them more. Likely that broker is running a hybrid A/B book....which is ok if they truly STP the flow exactly the same (whether internalized or to a 3rd party LP)

But I do agree now that most PoP brokers post-SNB are hesitant to extend too much credit to their clients. 1:100 is actually a lot already.
