I had high hopes for this prop firm. I’ve passed many so far and this is the first one to reject my pass over 6 misplaced SLs. I had a max loss of 34 dollars on a 14k account which of course starts at 3.5k too then make profit target of 350 which they’ve now pocketed. I honestly would say this has been my worst experience with a prop firm and I’m really glad I decided to test it with small funding. Use fxify or FTMO as these ones costs are fair and are reputable and getting a response from them happens in minutes compared to ftuk…. I’m currently being ignored because I have questioned the assessment.

I applied for the 14K Instant Funded Account. Pass the Challenge. Waited 8 days with no answers. Got my challenge denied for stop loss SOFT BREACH. Be aware that while other prop firms offer soft breach allowance FTUK does not. Also many days lost on platform maintenance and transition to other platforms. Trades being shut down automatically. Poor customer service. I would not recommend the overall experience.

FTUK was an interesting experience for me. Was attracted as they advertise one of the best scaleup plans around and the account was well priced. I aimed to work through the scaling plan as fast as i can. I completed the assessments quickly with good risk management as i only place 4-6 trades a day maximum with short gains. During evaluation was flagged as having an account that is arbitrage trading (IP locations from multiple locations). Now i know this not to be true as a trade through a Dedicated VPS and at the time was funded through other well established prop firms. I am not 100% sure on FTUK, i have two star as they did refund my signup fee otherwise this would have possibly been 1 star. I feel like their pushing a scaling plan they cannot keep up with especially when you compare against some of the other larger prop firms.

I'll keep this review pretty short - my main issue with FTUK is that I earned 10% and they said that I violated the rules so they did not pay me out. Now, their rules are their rules which I understand, however, I made them $2250 in profit - because their accounts are live (or supposedly), this means that they kept all of those profits. The entire FTUK website is about "we benefit when you benefit" and that they are in search of profitable traders. Well, I was profitable, using a stable system that had emergency stops in place, like any trader should. During the 2-3 months they never checked-in or warned me about my trading strategy. So in the end, 2 stars because they offered me a refund, but shame on them for taking all the profits and not allowing for a continued partnership that would have benefited both parties.

They have high comission, not so good. So they put their own interests above that of their clients in order to earn money, what also means interest of conflict. But they have good Support
