A proprietary trading firm, or prop firm, is a financial institution that trades financial instruments using its own capital rather than client funds. Prop firms employ a wide range of trading strategies and often invest in advanced technology to generate profits from market price movements. These firms typically hire professional traders who execute trades on behalf of the company, and traders may be compensated based on their performance. Prop trading firms are known for their risk management practices and focus on maintaining the integrity of their capital while participating in financial markets.

With the emerging market of Props, a lot more people are comfortable in using them instead of their own capital as they are able to prove themselves and leverage bigger capital for a fraction of the cost. This is one of our goals for retail traders to accomplish.
