Key Takeaways 

  • Start with a free trial at FunderPro to practice trading risk-free and potentially convert your profits directly into a Funded Account Challenge 
  • Utilize paper trading to build and test your trading strategies without financial risk, enhancing your skills before going live

Stepping into proprietary trading can be both exciting and daunting, we have said it many times. However, before diving into the deep end, you can get an understanding of the terrain and gain some practical experience for free. This is where a prop trading free trial becomes invaluable. It’s the perfect chance to ‘get your feet wet’ without the immediate risk that comes with paying the FAC (Funded Account Challenge) fee. 

The Perks of Paper Trading 

Before we delve into the intricacies of free trials in prop trading, let’s touch upon paper trading. Paper trading, or virtual trading, is a simulated trading process where would-be funded traders can practice their techniques for passing the FAC. It’s an educational gold mine for traders to test strategies, learn market behaviors, and gain confidence without the stress of potential losses. The beauty of paper trading lies in its ability to provide real-time market experience – it’s the trading equivalent of a flight simulator for pilots. It allows you to navigate the markets, learn from mistakes, and refine techniques, all with a safety net firmly in place. 

Prop firm free trials give you exactly that, and in addition they let you get comfortable with the firm’s rules, so you don’t get caught off guard during your Funded Account Challenge. 

FunderPro’s Free Trial 

At FunderPro, we want to take the concept of paper trading to the next level. We put together the educational aspect of paper trading with real-world incentives. Imagine starting on a Free Trial Account, testing strategies, feeling out the ebbs and flows of the market, and actually seeing a profit. With FunderPro, that profit isn’t just a number on a screen; it’s your ticket to start Phase 1 of the Funded Account Challenge one step ahead of everyone else. 

Get a Head Start in Your Trading Journey 

Here’s the thrilling part: if you make more than 1% profit in the trial phase, you can convert your account directly into a Funded Account Challenge and carry over your positive balance. This seamless transition means that you can take the strategies that have proven successful and immediately apply them in a real-life setting. 

How It Works 

The process is straightforward: 

  1. Sign up for a Free Trial Account at FunderPro and start trading 
  2. Once you make at least a 1% profit, you qualify for a Funded Account Challenge conversion 
  3. Carry over your profit and balance to a Challenge Account, just follow the instructions in your Dashboard 

Say you want a $100,000 Funded Account. You can take unlimited free trials until you are comfortable. For example, you can end three free trials in a loss, or breach a rule (and learn from it); on your fourth free trial, you make a 3% profit. Now, you can convert your Free Trial Account into a Funded Account Challenge and you’ll need only 7% more profit to pass Phase 1. 

Additional Perks to Help You Succeed 

FunderPro is dedicated to your success. They understand the journey’s ups and downs and offer additional perks to support your growth: 

  • Get 20% off on resetting your challenge if you need to start fresh
