Breaking News: FTMO Officially Launches Futures Trading
Big news: FTMO is launching Futures. I've gone through both the new Pro and Growth plans — here's my honest take on this massive industry shift.
For years, traders have asked when the industry's "Gold Standard" would finally enter the futures market. The wait is over. FTMO Futures is officially live, and they are bringing their legendary payout stability and professional-grade infrastructure to CME and CBOT markets.
If you’ve been researching a new way to fund your futures trading, this is an update you cannot afford to ignore.
A Genuine Shift for the Space
The futures prop trading space is rapidly evolving. Traders are consistently seeking clear rules, straightforward drawdown mechanics, and payout stability. FTMO is entering the space with a very clear mission: to provide a stable, transparent alternative.
They are launching with two distinct, highly competitive account types available in 100k, and $150k sizes:
- The PRO Plan: Built for experienced traders seeking maximum efficiency. It features an incredible 1:1 Profit Target to Drawdown ratio on the 50k size, 100% withdrawals, and a 90/10 payout ratio.
- The GROWTH Plan: Designed for accessibility. It offers a budget-friendly entry point (starting at $119), removes the Daily Loss Limit entirely during the evaluation, and features 4-day payout cycles.
The Game Changer: End of Day (EOD) Trailing
Perhaps the biggest news regarding this launch is the drawdown mechanic. FTMO Futures utilizes an End of Day (EOD) Trailing Drawdown on both plans. This means your drawdown limit is calculated at the end of the trading session based on your account balance, rather than punishing you for intraday high-water marks.
This provides traders with genuine "Room to Breathe" to execute their strategies properly without fear of a mid-trade drawdown breach.
