FTMO Officially Launches Futures Trading Division

If you've been researching a new way to fund your futures trading, this is worth a look. FTMO just launched futures — here's my full breakdown of everything you need to know.

FTMO has long been considered the industry benchmark for reliability in proprietary trading. Now, they are bringing that same "Gold Standard" legacy of trust to the Futures market with two brand new evaluation paths:

The PRO Plan

Built for experienced traders chasing efficiency, the PRO Plan features a market-unique 1:1 profit target-to-drawdown ratio on the 50K size, giving your trades incredible "room to breathe".

• Drawdown: End-of-Day (EOD) trailing lock on starting balance, with absolutely no intraday trailing.
• Payouts: 100% withdrawals up to high payout caps ($5,000–$8,000), processed every 5 days.

The GROWTH Plan

Designed for accessible entry with familiar, industry-standard mechanics, the GROWTH Plan starts at just $119.

• Flexibility: There is no daily loss limit during the evaluation phase. Once funded, it utilizes a soft DLL (a bad day locks trading, but the account survives).
• Payouts: 4-day payout cycles.

The Verdict

What sets FTMO Futures apart is their refusal to rely on marketing gimmicks, instead offering professional-grade infrastructure with direct Tradovate integration for CME and CBOT. Whether you prefer the massive drawdown room of the PRO plan or the budget-friendly accessibility of the GROWTH plan, FTMO has a plan for every trader.
