GOAT Funded trader is killing it in AI search. We look at where and how.
FTMO
FTMO was long number one. But payout data and FTMO’s own behaviour suggest FundedNext may be taking the top spot.
Google Ads, regulation, and gold are all setting up to make 2026 a potentially huge year for the prop trading space.
OANDA will remain as a standalone business, FTMO co-founder Ottakar Suffner said.
FTMO has access to a $625m lending facility with an 11-year term, with UniCredit likely acting as lead lender for a consortium of Czech banks.
FTMO stopped taking customers from the US at the start of 2024. The prop firm said the OANDA partnership is separate from its acquisition of the broker.
FTMO is still number one in search, even though it doesn’t do much different from its competitors. So why is the prop firm still number one?
Skorupinski has worked as an IB for props like FTMO and FundedNext. His new prop firm Campus Fund only offers instant funding accounts.
The best instant funding prop firms are smashing it for a simple reason – traders want instant funding, and they want it now.
FTMO accounts from 2023 show how impactful lower operational costs are on a prop firm’s bottom line.
FTMO probably bought OANDA on the cheap. But will the deal work out for the firm or will it struggle to grow revenues?
OANDA owner CVC Capital has been looking to sell for some time now. FTMO say the broker will continue to operate as a separate business.
FTMO has been slowly attempting to expand into the brokerage sector, with ex-FXCM and Skilling executive Michael Kamerman.
The funded trader firm has big growth plans and is in the process of setting up a CFD brokerage business. FTMO also seems to have operations in Cyprus.
FTMO and the Funding Pips both appear to be getting brokerage licences. Alpha Capital already has one. We look at why funded trader firms are doing this.
FTMO has big plans to expand into the retail broker space. Kamerman was previously CEO of Skilling and spent over 15 years at FXCM.
We interview FTMO CEO Ottaker Suffner about the company’s expansion plans, the US exit, and start up life.
