Forex Prop Firms
Forex prop firms fund traders to trade currency pairs (majors, minors, and exotics) on MetaTrader, cTrader, or DXtrade platforms. Compare evaluation cost, leverage, and pair availability below.
How to Choose a Forex Prop Firm
Three decision factors for narrowing the list above to the firm that fits your trading style and risk profile.
Pair Availability and Leverage
Most forex firms offer the 28 major and minor pairs; exotics and metals coverage varies. Leverage typically ranges from 1:30 to 1:100 depending on the firm and account size — higher leverage helps small accounts but increases drawdown risk. If you trade overnight or hold positions through Wednesday rollover, swap-free (Islamic) account availability is worth checking before paying for an evaluation.
Evaluation Cost vs. Account Size
Cheaper evaluations let you attempt funding more times, but the largest accounts ( $4.0M at the top firm in this list) come with higher fees and stricter rules. Compare the cost-to-capital ratio on each firm's profile.
Profit Split & Payout Speed
Profit splits across this list typically range from 70/30 to 90/10 in the trader's favour. Payout speed and frequency vary — some firms pay weekly, others monthly. Both are listed on each firm's profile.
