I started off by purchasing a $200K 2-step challenge and successfully navigated through it, strictly adhering to all the guidelines. However, my expectations were dashed when I received only a $100K account instead of the promised $200K. To advance to the higher level, I was told I needed to generate a 10% profit from that $100K account—something I thought I’d automatically qualify for.
Not wanting to leave empty-handed, I accepted the $100K account and began trading. Eventually, I put in enough trades to trigger my first payout request. To my surprise, my payout got flagged for news trading after I had closed a position just 8 minutes and 50 seconds after a news event.
The catch? When I bought the account, news trading was permitted. Yet, just a day before I closed my trade, they quietly altered the rules without informing anyone. The new guidelines stated that no trades could be opened or closed within 10 minutes before or after significant news events, plus at least 50% of the required profit shouldn’t derive from news trades at all.
Consequently, I was compelled to execute a minimum of five additional trades with at least a 0.5% variation in my account balance. This felt like an attempt to lead me to a loss, given that many traders statistically fall into that trap. The trade in question was worth $3,192, which inflated my payout target to a daunting $6,385. I diligently complied with their stipulations and ultimately achieved $9,195.50.
After submitting my payout request again, a long week passed without a single response, despite my efforts to contact support multiple times. Eventually, I received communication from their risk management team, only to find that yet another trade was flagged for news trading—even though I had substantial proof that it wasn’t within the problematic time frame.
I provided them with robust evidence, complete with precise timestamps to demonstrate my compliance with their revised rules. Their only reply was a generic screenshot of the ForexFactory calendar, which didn’t validate their claims. It felt like they completely disregarded my evidence, offering little more than nonsensical responses, almost as if they knew I was right but were merely buying time.
To add to my frustration, the risk team routinely took an entire week to respond. I can’t shake the feeling that this is a deliberate stall tactic, aiming to prevent me from trading for 14 days so they could deactivate my account due to inactivity. Overall, this whole experience has been incredibly disheartening and unjust. The abrupt rule change, their vague responses, and the frustrating payout process have left me feeling quite exasperated.

The traders’ dashboard does require some enhancements, particularly when it comes to the trading progress graphing and analytics. However, the customer service experience is truly exceptional. The support provided by Obiwan, Khalifa, and Pat is remarkable; their commitment to every trader’s success—mine included—is apparent and unwavering. They respond swiftly to concerns and provide empathy and reassurance that helps tackle issues before you even recognize them. It feels like they are more invested in your achievements than you might be. I couldn’t have asked for a better support system on my journey to success; their contribution has been invaluable, and I genuinely appreciate all their efforts.

I spent a week waiting for my issue to be addressed, only to feel misled throughout the entire process. After expressing my thoughts on Discord and backing them up with evidence from my web chat interactions (not through email support), I found myself blocked for a full week. It was incredibly frustrating not to have any support when I needed it most. Just today, when I finally hoped for assistance, I was banned again and removed from the server after presenting proof that different employees had made conflicting promises to me. This situation feels like a scam! My account, which was funded, is now blocked—a complete challenge. They seem to prioritize accounts showing profit as failures and offer no support in return. It’s apparent they pay off individuals to leave positive reviews here. I strongly advise against investing here; it’s a scam!

Funding Trader offers an impressive trading platform that allows users to claim their rewards quite early on, which is definitely a plus (obiwan). The experience is overall positive, and the interface is user-friendly, making it easier for traders to navigate. It’s great to see a platform that understands the importance of rewarding its traders promptly.

Funding Traders operates in a questionable manner; they seem to exploit their customers and might even pay individuals to advocate for their dubious practices. In my personal experience, they attempted to persuade me to provide a favorable review simply because they assisted me with a minor issue I faced. I have documented evidence to support my claims. If you are interested in evidence that highlights the issues with Funding Traders, don’t hesitate to reach out to me on Telegram @ricostory87. Additionally, I plan to release a YouTube video soon to ensure that others are aware of the concerning activities associated with this firm.

The support team was both kind and prompt. While there are occasional delays, it’s understandable given the volume of requests that such companies typically handle. I encountered an issue with Tradelocker, but the support staff were efficient in migrating my account to MT5. I’m very pleased with the payout process, which has been smooth and timely with no delays. This is my first review, but I look forward to sharing my experience again during my next payout, as this firm has certainly earned my trust. Cheers!

Name O'Connell
I’m working with a few different proprietary trading firms and I also trade with my own capital.
My approach is quite straightforward: I buy pullbacks after breakouts in the gold market.
Typically, I’ll set a small limit order, around 0.3% of my total risk for that trade, at the first Fibonacci level, placing a stop well below it. This means I use a smaller lot size.
The idea is to have a position in the market if it takes off from that initial level, which gives me the opportunity to adjust the stop loss and gradually scale in.
For the remaining pending orders, I might set them at my ideal Fibonacci level, which would be between 0.5% and 0.7% of my overall risk.
I keep my total risk for each trade less than or equal to 1%. However, since the second position has a tighter stop loss—meaning the entry point is closer to that stop—the lot size is a bit larger.
This has been described as a martingale strategy, which I believe is absurd, and as a result, my account was closed. It seems unreasonable that a strategy could be labeled martingale when it includes a stop loss and is based on proper risk calculation. It really just comes down to managing risk and adhering to a trading plan.

I understand your response, and it’s what I expected. This review is my perspective, grounded in my own experiences.
Nevertheless…
My viewpoint certainly carries more weight when considered alongside the other 14 pages of unfavorable reviews, many of which echo similar concerns.
A potential solution could be to reconsider this “martingale-like” policy and permit traders to manage their positions as long as they follow the defined risk parameters.

My experience with FundingTraders has been quite disappointing. They falsely claimed my account was breached and denied my payout without offering a legitimate explanation. There seem to be numerous hidden rules that aren’t disclosed at the beginning, which adds to the frustration. Honestly, it feels like a scam; I would strongly recommend steering clear of this firm!

This company is a scam. I strongly advise staying away from them.
The response I received was utterly nonsensical. At no time did the price ever exceed my daily loss, which only reinforces my belief that this is just another scam operation.

At FundingTraders, the emphasis is clearly on supporting traders in their pursuits. However, a recent update to their inactivity policy has raised some eyebrows. There are still no mandated time limits for achieving profit targets, which is a plus, but now traders are expected to place at least one trade every 14 days to keep their accounts active.
If an existing account becomes inactive, traders will have the option to request reactivation. However, newly created accounts that sit dormant for 14 days face termination—a move implemented to ensure that the firm’s resources are dedicated to active participants. For those who trade consistently, these changes won’t pose a problem.
Yet, in a follow-up email, the firm stated that all accounts are subject to this rule, regardless of when they were opened. Inactive accounts after 14 days can’t be reactivated, and traders will have to start anew if they wish to regain access. This policy aims to cultivate a fair trading environment for engaged traders, but it seems to contradict the initial message, which has left several users uneasy.
In an attempt to seek clarification, I reached out to support, but was met with an unclear response: “A Support Staff will be assigned to you shortly.” After waiting, the representative simply stated, “The relevant authorities will be looking into this,” and then disappeared, leaving me in the dark.
Additionally, scrolling through the FundingTraders Telegram group reveals a chaotic scene filled with complaints and reports of scams. This environment raises questions about the stability of the firm. Add to that the abundance of promotional offers—buy one, get one free, and significant discounts—and it certainly raises some flags for potential traders.

I’ve had a solid experience with this proprietary trading firm, and they stand out as one of the few where I’ve actually managed to secure a payout. The customer support is incredibly responsive! After my account was closed due to inactivity, I reached out to them and explained my situation—I had been quite ill and unable to trade for some time. Within just a few days, they managed to reactivate my account. A big shoutout to support agent Obiwan for their help in getting my account up and running again! I genuinely plan to continue working with them moving forward.
However, just hours after my account was reactivated and I submitted a positive review, it got taken away again! This left me quite frustrated. When I inquired about what happened, I was informed of a rule change that supposedly only affected challenge accounts. I couldn’t wrap my head around the time limit they mentioned, especially since they previously stated there was no time limit for challenge accounts. It seemed contradictory, and when I pressed for clarification, I was told the rules had changed but that nothing had altered for funded accounts, which I had. So now, unfortunately, it appears my account cannot be restored.

I’ve been trading with Funding Traders for a couple of months now, and I’m currently processing my third payout with the same account. The trading conditions have been impressive—I’ve never encountered slippage, and the spreads are quite favorable as well.
When it comes to customer support, I can confidently say it’s top-notch. They’re always ready to help with any concerns that pop up. I’d like to give a special shout-out to Khalifa and Kid; they truly stand out as the best in customer support, perhaps across all proprietary trading firms.

This firm appears to be engaging in deceptive practices. I’ve experienced what seems to be a manipulation of server prices, which seriously impacted my trading account. For instance, an order I placed (exit time 3/2/2025 at 1:02:38) was closed at an incorrect price. The server suddenly dropped the price of XAUUSD from 2792 to 2773 in just one minute. I’ve attached photos from other proprietary firms and private brokers, as well as from TradingView, showing that none of them had prices fall to 2773; they all hovered around 2792 to 2796.
I had set a stop loss at 2790 and planned to exit the order manually, but the server dropped the price of XAUUSD down to 2772 in what felt like an intentional breach of my account. Most reputable companies would rectify such discrepancies, but Funding Traders refused to accept any responsibility. It’s worth noting that this is merely a virtual server, not reflective of real market conditions, so why is there no corrective action? Instead, it seems they are manipulating server prices to unjustly take money from traders, with my evaluation cost nearing $450.
To reiterate, your server operates in a virtual environment, and it’s misleading to claim there’s no market manipulation happening. I could provide ten examples from other prop firms or private brokers showing they don’t have similar issues. The abrupt price adjustment from 2792 to 2773 is a difference of 20 pips in XAUUSD. No other firm I’ve dealt with encounters problems like yours; it can’t simply be a liquidity issue. Even if that were the case, price adjustments should be made, as it’s highly unusual. I only had one order on that day, clearly marked with a stop loss that would have capped my loss at $1600. There were no other orders to consider.

Caution is advised when dealing with this firm. Although I eventually received a payout, I faced several unjust denials on my accounts that seemed designed to prevent further disbursements. After three attempts to withdraw, I finally got paid—but this was only after I shared my experience publicly and discussed it in their Discord community. Shortly after the new year, I encountered an account breach on both of my funded accounts, which I believe was fabricated, while my other challenge accounts remained untouched. I strictly adhered to all the guidelines, which enabled me to secure that initial payout. It appears they profit off traders who struggle to gain returns; in contrast, successful traders are viewed as a potential threat, leading the firm to take measures to limit their payouts. Interestingly, smaller withdrawals—those under $1,000—seem to go through with far fewer complications. I would strongly recommend exploring other reputable trading firms instead.
