Prop Firm Directory

Choosing the right prop trading firm is one of the most important decisions you'll make as a funded trader. With dozens of firms offering different challenge structures, profit splits, and trading conditions, navigating the landscape can feel overwhelming. That's why we built the PropFirmScan directory — a comprehensive, independently verified database of prop firms organized by the criteria that matter most to traders.

How to Use This Directory

Start by identifying your primary decision factor. If regulatory protection matters most, browse by location to find firms operating under your jurisdiction's oversight. If you're committed to a specific trading platform like MT5 or cTrader, filter by platform to ensure compatibility. Challenge type matters for your timeline — 1-step challenges get you funded faster, while 2-step evaluations typically have more forgiving targets per phase.

Beyond the Directory

Once you've narrowed your options, use our comparison tool to evaluate firms side-by-side on specific metrics like profit splits, account sizes and pricing, trading rules, and payout speeds. Our trading calculators help you model scenarios — from challenge costs to profit projections — before committing any capital.
