@JonatanRandin what is the next Chartered now ??

[Mr. P @traderinthezone]

@Truvosofficial Revenue grew by numbers but look at the Delta. @Truvosofficial Technically, there was no growth.

@FTMO_com has its own playbook - in terms of marketing & risk management.

They focus heavily on performance marketing in an industry driven by community. Increased volume of massive ads won't be as efficient as the options rest of the props have.

@FundedNext 's CSO Abdullah - accurately answered this in iFx expo recently and how interruption marketing doesn't work as efficiently in prop trading. In fact, there are better & cheaper long lasting alternatives & platforms.

FundedNext, FundingPips, The5ers, Tradeify, Lucid, MFFU etc. all of the firms have strong community interaction, followed by offline events & presence in summits/expos, way ahead of FTMO.

Dedicated regional website/social media handles with Regional managers -- add more value anytime & yeild better outputs -- rather than just blindly targeting that region with Ads.

Personally, FTMO almost started sounding like a ghost to me. No influencers/faces on their side / no announcements from C level suite folks on X or any handle.

Risk Management wise as well - flagging anyone with 2-3% risk per trade under 1 % group - is another level of downgrading. This indirectly brought lot of silent backlash, lack of recommendation and migration towards existing firms with better prices.

Firms like FN, FP, etc. solved and handled the same issue better. Educated & offered friendly options. Again, community interaction aided and always does.

I find - This decline is particular to FTMO, rather an industry level metric. FTMO's growth in sales from 2023 - 2025 stayed flat with no surplus, while other firms had decent growth & are expanding.

I still believe - FN, FP and major ones in Futures are performing better and growing with their simple / normal approach. Why ? Better R&D, community interaction, marketing, products, etc.

Small things make big differences. Sometimes, there is no need to always act differently and just follow what is normal & organic.

Again, In a community driven industry, FTMO is acting & operating like a BIG 4 validated corporate.

I expected it given the sheer volume of ads that FTMO increased since July 2025...

Now this is a business that is cash flow rich, imagine the smaller firms that decided to copy FTMO 1 for 1 what they are going through right now.

Same fate will be shown to the Futures market if Prop owners do not make drastic changes soon:

End Cycle fix and Path to live being more fairer
Restriction of Countries / massive funding limitations
Price increases for evals
Having own platform to reduce reliance on Tradeovate

The thing is with FTMO and Breakout etc, they can just throw cash at the problem and survive quite easily the volatility spikes, but for smaller firms I can see some closures coming end of this year / start of 2027.

That's why the following is needed:

Trader retention boost and Trader churn reduction
Lower sales volume spikes and maybe even less sales that are stable though from risk perspective
Cheaper marketing avenues (there are plenty)
Unlocking regions with strong KYC systems

@Sharktradess what about futures ?

[Alexander @onlyalexfx]

You wanted daily payouts, and you hated the payout lock… so we gave you one and got rid of the other. We’ve still got a few things in the pipeline. Some will take a little longer than others, but we’re working 👨‍🍳

@Trillionarie369 @jamaal_trades @the5erstrading Psych is IP, not trading strategy.

[Mr. P @traderinthezone]

@JonatanRandin Claude Code anytime.

Be explicit, detailed for what you want. You will get better results with least errors with Claude.

@onlyalexfx @tradeifyforex @onlyalexfx's expertise is CFD. 💪

[Mr. P @traderinthezone]

@MSTARROHIT If they compensate for you, what about others who faced same violation ?

[Mr. P @traderinthezone]

@Truvosofficial @tradeifyforex Truvos is always the first.

[Mr. P @traderinthezone]

@MTradingX @MyForexFunds yes exactly it is better. Every firm is like an opportunity. It is the least influencers can do.

Even, media also covered it at the same time but influencer's coverage always beats it.

[Mr. P @traderinthezone]

@umarpnj SVP - It depends how you interpret volume, delta, etc.

@traderjulesk @OkalaNQT Clarify one thing.

In 8020, I noticed Okala using a weird timeframe, something like 80 secs or such kind of figure, which is not available on charts.

Is it true ? How do you manage this ?

[Mr. P @traderinthezone]

@fundedfamily optional add on is at the time of purchase or after ?

[Mr. P @traderinthezone]

Big boi @FTMO_Futures has now entered Futures.

[Mr. P @traderinthezone]

@yavuzkaaa @propfundsquad @E8Markets @fundingpips @FundedNext Lol. idiots keep coming again and again.
