Pros & Cons
Main Benefits
  • Up to 90% of your simulated profits as a reward, accounts up to $200,000 FTMO Account, established 2015 with 3.5M+ customers worldwide, MT4 MT5 cTrader supported, 100% refund of initial fee on first reward (2-Step), Prague-based with $500M+ paid in rewards
  • One-step evaluation with a 10% target, 4 minimum trading days and no time limit. Static drawdown that never trails. Evaluation fee 100% refunded with the first Performance Payment. Instant Access tiers skip the evaluation entirely. 2,500+ US stocks and ETFs alongside forex, crypto, indices and commodities. Every package bundles education: self-study courses, Foundations, a live trading room and personal coaching on the higher tiers.
Main Drawbacks
  • All accounts we provide to our clients are demo accounts with fictitious funds and any trading is in a simulated environment only; prices charged in EUR; 2-Step Verification phase required before reaching FTMO Account
  • The fee buys an education bundle plus a simulated account, not a plain evaluation, and Instant Access tiers run $445 to $7,975. TrustPilot has removed the rating for a breach of its guidelines. Scalping and HFT are banned outright (any trade under two minutes counts as HFT), as are copy trading and hedging. Payouts are monthly only, capped at $15,000 a month, with no on-demand withdrawal. No named third-party platform: the terminal is a white-label the firm buys in.
