{quote} Ffs its one thing after another. What would that leave us with couple of firms with Ctrader.
Ctrader doesnt allow for US residents to be onboarded. They give strict rules to props not to accept US residents on c trader platform.

The bullshit US regulators. They simply do not want forex to exist in the US. They do everything in their power to accomplish this. The big money is in the futures markets and spot forex takes away from that. It is as simple as that.

I do not think an own FX platform can be built easily, not something you can do with 10k and 1 month programming work. Probably something around 6 months work at least with 100k cost for this, minimum I would say. Of course it depends...but not for cheap for sure, or it might be so buggy that you do not wish to trade on this.
Probably for most props then it would be easier to integrate cTrader for all non-US customers. I think 250k is realistic and 6 months work for an own platform, but hey...

If metatrader situation is true then i guess props are over for US traders and you will only be left with unregulated prop firms that use tradelocker that is owned by cuebanks xD or go with futures firms, i dont see any prop firm registering in US to accept US clients

FTMO still could do...but then this could be the end of choice. If MFF can do operate again they probably would be another option to FTMO. MFF also has the money...

But even if they have the money, the cost of challenges running business compliance is not worth for them to take in US clients, look at ic markets or exness they dont bother to buy NFA license they have the money but is not worth it, other things will come up, maybe futures prop firms will be more competitive i dont know lets see in the next months maybe this industry is dead by then or even brokers may join

Well, see, that's the hypocrisy, the "regulated" brokers which the CFTC requires us to use to "protect" us from ourselves, are the biggest lying, cheating, thieving bastards of them all.

Final update on my challenges took 5 100k. Lost 4 all based on my super agressive trading style. Cleared bespoke( after trandy incident made me feel different about them) 2nd phase … TAKEAWAYS - props are totally different game so dont trade with the mindset of like your own account. Next steps first i planned to buy ftmo 2x 200k accounts but i am dropping it now coz with same amount i can purchase 600k worth of challenges. Better to take more challenges to get comfortable. so this week plan - buying 200k blue guardian, 200k...
If you have money to burn then have at it. You admitted that you failed 4 out of 5 challenges. That should be a warning to you.

Instead you intend to dig yourself a deeper hole by going balls deep and buy accounts with every sketchy prop firm around. If you been paying attention to this thread, several are blatantly denying payouts and/or on the brink of insolvency.

The only ones that seem to still be on firm ground are FTMO and the5ers. And yet you disregarded FTMO because you could buy more from some other sketchy firm. Quantity does mean quality.
Trade with confidence, trade without fear.

No EAs and No copy trading anymore then I would say or...? That would be for many traders a significant drawback too.
