Prop Trading
A session for anyone who wants to understand how firms that provide capital work, how to read the risk rules, and what criteria to use to evaluate a prop firm.
Choosing prop so you don't risk your own money? In prop, the risk rules are even stricter. First study “Discipline and risk management”.
Who it's for — and who it's not
Prop trading makes sense once you already have a process that works on your own account. Check whether you fit the right profile before booking.
This is for you if
- You already have results on your own account and want to see if you can manage larger capital.
- You're looking at a prop firm and want to correctly read its risk rules before paying for a challenge.
- You want clear criteria to compare firms and decide on your own.
- You've tried a challenge, failed it, and want to understand why.
This is not for you if
- You're just starting out and want to learn from scratch — then start with “Introduction to the field” (free) and a course.
- You're looking for passive income or a guaranteed funded account — prop trading is neither.
- You're waiting to be told which firm to choose — here the goal is to learn to evaluate on your own.

RegisterWhat we cover
The session covers the model and the rules — how prop trading works and how you decide on your own. The order and emphasis adapt to where you are and to your questions.
How the model works
Challenge, funded account, profit split. Where the firm's money comes from and why it lets you trade with it.
Risk rules, read correctly
Total maximum loss, daily loss, profit target, minimum trading days. Which rule actually disqualifies you, and how to manage it.
Criteria for evaluating a firm
Transparency of terms, how profit withdrawal works, the business model, warning signs. How to compare and decide on your own.
Why most people fail
Strict rules require real experience. Why you build on your own account first, and only then move to funded capital.
Testing on a demo account
How to check on a demo account whether your strategy holds up against the firm's rules — before paying for a real challenge.
Marketing traps
Retake fees, hidden rules, “passive income,” profit promises. What to ignore and what to ask directly.
You learn to evaluate a prop firm on your own
The consultation is educational: we explain how the prop model works and give you the criteria to evaluate a firm — so you can make an informed decision on your own. Our role is to help you understand and ask the right questions, not to choose for you.
As financial education, we don't recommend specific prop firms, don't give trading signals, and don't guarantee results — the choices are yours.

What you want to know beforehand
No. Instead, we give you the criteria to evaluate any firm on your own: transparency of terms, how profit withdrawal works, clarity of the rules, and warning signs. You leave with a decision framework, not a name.
No. Most people who try fail — not for lack of talent, but because the risk rules demand experience that few traders have yet. The consultation helps you understand what's required and realistically test whether you're ready, before you pay.
Probably not yet. Prop trading makes sense once you already have a process that works on your own account. If you're starting from zero, start with “Introduction to the field” (free) and a course. We'll tell you honestly where you stand and what a reasonable path looks like.
No. Prop trading is active work, with a real risk of losing the challenge fee and being disqualified for breaking the rules. Marketing that presents it as “passive income” or a “guaranteed funded account” is exactly what we teach you to ignore.
Yes. Rescheduling details and conditions arrive in the confirmation email after booking.
