Which firm fits which trader

A reading of the data for three common situations. The rulebook that fits the trader's style matters more than any single figure.

A first challenge on a small budget

New to prop firms and paying to learn a rulebook at the lowest cost.

The data favours

For Traders

  • The entry ticket is $14.45 at For Traders against $39.60 at Fintokei.
  • No consistency rule applies on that program, which removes one common cause of a failed first account.

A consistent trader scaling up

Has passed evaluations before and cares about the share of profit kept and the ceiling on funding.

The data favours

Fintokei

  • The profit split reaches 100% at Fintokei and 80% at the other firm.
  • The largest account is $400K at Fintokei, so a consistent trader has further to scale.

A swing trader holding for days

Uses wider stops and needs room for positions to move against the entry before they work.

The data favours

Fintokei

  • At 100K, Fintokei allows 0.55 of drawdown per 1 of profit target and For Traders allows 0.36.
  • The drawdown is static, so open profit does not raise the floor while a position runs.
