A prop firm is an entity in which a trader is allocated a portion of the firms capital in order to have the trader employ their own market strategies and receive a portion of any profits made using that capital. Historically, prop firms have been brick and mortar establishments that employed traders with years of experience or trained less experienced traders on how to become profitable after the trader put up a large sum of their own capital used for their initial training period. These type of “old-school” prop firms are not very inclusive and the barriers to entry can be prohibitively expensive for the average retail trader.
Hypothetical or simulated performance results have certain limitations. Unlike an actual performance record, simulated results do not represent actual trading. Also, because the trades have not actually been executed, the results may have under-or-over compensated for the impact, if any, of certain market factors, such as lack of liquidity. Simulated trading programs, in general, are also subject to the fact that they are designed with the benefit of hindsight. No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profit or losses similar to those shown.
