Honest, detailed reviews of every major prop trading firm. We test the challenges, verify the payouts, and expose the hidden rules so you don't have to.
We purchase and complete challenges ourselves to experience the real trading conditions, spreads, and execution.
We collect and verify payout proofs from real traders. No fake screenshots – only confirmed payments.
We dig deep into terms & conditions to find restrictions that aren't advertised – before you find out the hard way.
Not all prop firms are legitimate. We've identified firms that don't pay traders or have impossible rules. Always check our Hidden Rules Database before purchasing any challenge.
A proprietary trading firm (prop firm) provides traders with capital to trade in exchange for a share of the profits. Traders typically pass an evaluation challenge to prove their skills before receiving a funded account. The firm takes on the financial risk while the trader provides the skill and strategy.
Earnings depend on your account size, profit split, and trading performance. With a $100,000 funded account and an 80% profit split, a 5% monthly return would yield $4,000 in trader profit. Top traders with multiple merged accounts can earn $10,000-$50,000+ per month.
Many prop firms are legitimate businesses, but the industry also has scams. Look for firms with verified payout proofs, transparent rules, established track records (2+ years), and active community feedback. Our reviews verify payouts and expose hidden rules to help you avoid fraudulent firms.
For beginners, we recommend firms with relaxed time limits, lower profit targets, and educational resources. The 5%ers, FTMO, and FundedNext are popular choices due to their clear rules and proven track records. Start with smaller account sizes ($10K-$25K) to manage psychological pressure.
If you fail a challenge by breaching the maximum drawdown or daily loss limit, you lose your evaluation fee. Most firms offer discounted retries or free retries if you hit the profit target but fail on another metric. Some firms like The 5%ers offer instant funding options with no challenge required.
