How we rank prop firms
Our score weights payout track record (40%), trading conditions and rules (25%), pricing (15%), platform quality (10%) and support/community reputation (10%). Scores update as firms change rules — more than 80 prop firms have shut down since 2020, and reliability beats headline profit splits.

Risk warning: Trading leveraged products involves significant risk of loss. CFDs are complex instruments; a majority of retail investor accounts lose money when trading CFDs. Prop firm challenges are fee-based simulated evaluations. Nothing on this site is investment advice.
