The process

How prop trading works

You prove your edge, the firm backs you with capital. Here's how it works in four steps.

Step 01

Find the right firm

Not every prop firm suits every trader. Rules, drawdown models, and payout speeds vary wildly. Read our reviews and find the one that fits how you trade.

Step 02

Pass the evaluation

Most firms run a challenge where you hit a profit target within drawdown limits. Some are one-step, some two. Some skip the evaluation entirely.

Step 03

Trade with firm capital

Once funded, you trade using the firm's money. Stay within the rules, execute your strategy, and keep the majority of whatever you make.

Step 04

Get paid

Request a withdrawal when you're eligible. The best firms pay within 24 hours. We track payout speeds and reliability so you know what to expect before signing up.

Prop firm reviews you can actually rely on

The prop trading industry has exploded in recent years — dozens of firms across Futures and Forex, all competing for your challenge fee. More choice is good. But it also means more noise, more misleading claims, and more fine print that can cost you a funded account.

FundedTraderIntel cuts through that. We review every major prop firm in depth — challenge structure, drawdown mechanics, payout timelines, platform quality, and scaling potential. Whether you're comparing your first firm or your fifth, you'll find everything you need here to make an informed decision.
