Before you decide to start an Evaluation, we want to make sure that you understand how the process works and what is expected from you.
Choosing your product
After you sign up at https://futures.ftmo.com/en/, you can start by choosing one of our two products, Growth or Pro. Both follow the same Evaluation process but differ in their Trading Objectives, pricing, and conditions. This allows you to select the structure that best matches your trading style and experience.
Setting up your account
Once you are ready, you can configure your account by selecting your product and account size. Key parameters:
- Evaluation accounts are denominated in US Dollars (USD).
- Accounts are based on a monthly subscription.
- Available trading platforms are NinjaTrader, Tradovate, or TradingView.
Important note
Please note that it is not possible to obtain a Sim-Funded or Live Funded Account based on any external trading track record. To become an FTMO Trader, you must successfully meet the Trading Objectives of the selected product, Growth or Pro, during the Evaluation.
