How to choose the best Forex prop trading program by Traders Union
Choosing a Forex trading program may sound intimidating, but Traders Union has compiled a list of standards one must check when searching for the best ones.
- Check out the prop firm’s reputation - consider looking for information on review sites like TrustPilot, and scroll through trader forums, to get the most trustworthy information about a prop firm
- Consider your trading style - some prop firms offer higher profit splits than others, but their trading instruments might not be suitable for one’s style
- Signs of long term partnership - find platforms that will be there for the long haul. After all, prop trading can become a full-time career in itself, with promising monetary compensations
- Cost of entrance - prop firms will not fund you unless they already see the result from your labor. These platforms require traders to pay an “entrance fee” before joining their programs, choose ones that are most favorable to your budget
- Initial balance - the initial balance funded in an account makes sure you can move at your most comfortable pace, and place bets that lead to huge profits. Go for the one that is most stretched and flexible
- Profit sharing - some offer up to 90% profit split while others start off at 50%. Traders Union experts advise finding the one that is most suitable to one’s profit goals
Here is how to start working with a prop firm according to TU experts
For those who are just starting out in the proprietary trading space, Traders Union experts advise checking out the following factors.
- Have a well-tested strategy before starting out - choose between various market strategies namely statistical arbitrage, merger arbitrage, index arbitrage, volatility arbitrage, technical analysis, fundamental analysis, and global macro trading
- Research the market - profile and create a shortlist of firms that are most suitable for your goals
- In-depth research of the prop firm - once the most suitable firm has been selected, TU advise traders to do their due diligence about the platform before committing
- Pick your choice - if available, traders are always advised to test out first before funding an account
