The 5-Factor Framework
Evaluate every prop firm on: (1) Payout reliability, (2) Rule fairness, (3) Cost efficiency, (4) Platform quality, (5) Track record. Our scoring model covers all five.
Red Flags to Watch
Beware of firms with: no verified payouts, frequent rule changes, unreachable support, hidden fees, or no public track record.
Matching Firm to Trading Style
Day traders need low daily drawdown limits. Swing traders need flexible time limits. Scalpers need fast execution platforms. Match your style to the right firm.
