Funding accounts (or prop trading) have become the "golden bridge" for traders who have the skill but not the capital. Basically, a company provides you with capital to trade in exchange for passing an exam and sharing a portion of your profits.

✅ Advantages: The Power of Other People's Capital

Zero risk of personal capital: You only risk the cost of the evaluation (registration). Once funded, the losses are borne by the company.

Access to large sums: You can manage from $10,000 to over $200,000 USD, something almost impossible for an average retail trader.

Attractive profit sharing: Most firms, such as FTMO or FundedNext, offer between 80% and 95% of the profits generated to the trader.

Psychology and Discipline: By trading under strict risk rules, you are forced to professionalize your trading to avoid losing the account.

❌ Disadvantages: It's not "Easy Money"

Strict management rules: You have daily loss limits (daily drawdown) and total loss limits that, if touched even by a cent, result in the immediate loss of the account.

The cost of the exam: If you do not pass the challenge (and most do not), you lose the money paid for the evaluation.

Evaluation phase: You must demonstrate consistency for weeks or months before seeing a single dollar of real profit.

Risks of the platform: Being a less regulated sector than that of traditional brokers, there is always the risk of issues with withdrawals or changes in the company's terms and conditions.

In summary: It is an excellent tool if you already have a proven strategy in demo or small real account. If you are looking for "luck", the risk rules will quickly take you out of the game.
