Trading is difficult. While trading, you may face many common problems such as:
- Trading an account that is too small (undercapitalisation)
- Fear of losing your own money
- Psychological pressures
- Lack of discipline
- Growth limitations
- Insufficient support from your surroundings
How does FTMO help?
Making a living as a retail trader, especially if you intend to use your own money, is tough. With the FTMO Prop Trading firm, you can hone and prove your skills on an FTMO Challenge or an FTMO Instant Account, and receive real monetary Payouts for your performance without risking your own capital on the live markets.
To receive a Reward from the FTMO Challenge product, you must first reach the FTMO Account phase. The simulated profit created during the Evaluation Process does not grant you eligibility for a Reward.
Our three products, 1-Step FTMO Challenge, 2-Step FTMO Challenge and FTMO Instant Account, let you choose the conditions that fit your trading style. For the 2-Step FTMO Challenge, we will refund you the initial purchase fee once you request your first Reward withdrawal, using the same payment method you used.
Having experience with trading ourselves, we understand that to be a great trader, you need more than just enough capital to trade with. It is in our interest to provide our clients with conditions under which they can perform at their best. Our clients will receive wide access to our innovative Trading Applications, which can enhance their trading edge, and they will also receive detailed feedback from our company. FTMO Traders and clients with an FTMO Instant Account who have placed their first trade may also periodically consult with our Trading Psychology Coach free of charge.
Last but not least, there is the trading discipline that we emphasise. You cannot be all loosey-goosey with the FTMO accounts. Our rules are designed to teach you professional risk management habits and ultimately make you a better trader.
