I came across an interesting poll with some real prop trading stats.
In this video I talk about how prop traders made millions. How much they spent on average on prop firms.
Whether they are new or experienced traders.
How this poll shows that 90% of prop traders dont fail -the statistics are better than that and what type of prop firm rules they dislike.
I hope this video gives you better insight into the opportunities for prop firm traders
Past performance is not indicative of future results. Trading forex carries a high level of risk, and may not be suitable for all investors. The high degree of leverage can work against you as well as for you. Before deciding to trade any such leveraged products you should carefully consider your investment objectives, level of experience, and risk appetite. The possibility exists that you could sustain a loss of some or all of your initial investment and therefore you should not invest money that you cannot afford to lose. You should be aware of all the risks associated with trading on margin, and seek advice from an independent financial advisor if you have any doubts.
