Dashboard shows drawdown accurately

The scaling roadmap gives me an actual goal to work toward each month. Honestly, the 80% split is paid out exactly as advertised.

Fast, friendly live chat

I was nervous about execution going in, but it has been smooth sailing. I got a proper apology and a fix when one of my requests was initially misrouted. Their scaling plan rewards steady profits instead of reckless swings.

After comparing a dozen firms, FTMO offered the best price for what you get. They explain the drawdown limits clearly right at the beginning, which saved me a lot of guesswork. I'm already planning my next $10k account.
