How does iFXTrader Prop Funding work?
iFXTrader PropAccount is a partner of our parent fund, Prop Account, LLC. We are similar to other prop firms, except, the difference is we teach traders our methodologies and use our tools to past assignments. We also offer real funded accounts with live market execution. We offer a simple, 1& 2 step, paid assignments process. Once the assignments process is passed, Traders are offered a live account with a standard, 75% profit split and optional 90% profit split at additional evaluation cost.
Most other, "cheaper" prop firms, only offer simulated market, demo competitions with payouts based on others losing their evaluation fees. This is a dangerous business practice and is rapidly becoming illegal in most countries due to its "Ponzi" nature. iFXTrader ensures you will receive a live account upon your completion of our assignments process.
How does Trade iFXTrader coach its members?
iFXTrader offers a wide range of detailed courses showing exactly how to use the iFXTrader technology and methodologies. iFXTrader also offers weekly live webinars going through live markets and answering questions in real time.
Also, iFXTrader offers its premium members, one-on-one coaching on a monthly basis. Qualifying members will have access and the ability to book a one-on-one coaching call. You are required to have an Active membership in Good Standing to book a coaching call.
How long does it take to learn the iFXTrader methodologies?
Dedicated students who follow our advice carefully can expect to see significant positive changes in their performance over the course of three to six months. Keep in mind that we do not guarantee positive results. Results may vary from person to person.
What markets does the iFXTrader methodologies work on?
iFXTrader methodologies works on all major markets that show a significant amount of liquidity. Where the methodologies may fail is when the markets are flat. If there is no willing participants or volume then the patterns we follow won't emerge. Anyone who is trading Forex, cryptocurrencies, futures, commodity markets or equities is going to see the patterns we teach and opportunities on a regular basis across all time frames.
Does iFXTrader guarantee you success?
No. We teach a framework of best practices to ensure you are trade with probabilities in your favour, but your overall skill and discipline using the methodologies we teach you, along with keeping to those best practices will help determine your success.
What are the rules of the Trader Lounge communities?
Below we have outlined what we feel most would consider pretty reasonable codes of conduct. Violating these codes of conduct will not be tolerated and can result in a permanent ban at the discretion of iFXTrader Moderators and staff - possibly even a timeout in the corner.
1. No Spam / Advertising / Self-promote in the forums These forums define spam as unsolicited advertisement for goods, services, and/or other websites, or posts with little, or completely unrelated content. Do not spam the forums with links to your site or product, or try to self-promote your website, business or forums, etc. Spamming also includes sending private messages to a large number of different users.
DO NOT ASK for email addresses or phone numbers on the main forum or any spaces Your account will be banned permanently and your posts will be deleted. We understand some users might exchange contact information in the context of trading, which is totally fine if voluntarily done. If a user reports harassment from another user, an investigation will take place in which permanent suspension may occur.
2. Do not post copyright-infringing material Providing or asking for information on how to illegally obtain copyrighted materials is forbidden. Just don't do it.
3. Do not post “offensive” posts, links, or images Any material which constitutes defamation, harassment, or abuse is strictly prohibited. Material that is sexually or otherwise obscene, racist, or otherwise overly discriminatory is not permitted on these forums. This includes user pictures. Use common sense while posting. We understand trading dynamics and making the experience of watching the markets enjoyable with a little humour. We simply ask you not to push things to a point others would find offensive.
4. Do not cross-post questions Please refrain from posting the same question in several spaces. There is normally one space that is most suitable in which to post your question.
5. Do not send other users private requests for help without permission If you need help, make a new post in the appropriate space, then the whole community can help and benefit. In the event a user offers personal help in this post, then there is no issue in messaging them. What we would like to avoid are certain users that have success with iFXTrader being targeted with questions from the community for help without it being on their terms to extend that help. Emotions can run high when trading and we don't want to push on others too much when things might get tough.
6. Remain respectful of other members at all times All posts should be professional and courteous. The Trading Lounge should be treated as a professional setting in which traders are looking to trade profitably. You have every right to disagree with your fellow community members about particular points or trading ideas and explain your perspective. However, you are not free to attack, degrade, insult, or otherwise belittle them or the quality of this community. It does not matter what title or power you hold in these forums, you are expected to obey this rule.
