If you want prop trading stocks but don’t want to risk your own money, prop trading challenges could be your ideal first step. At BetonShares, we help aspiring traders learn the rules, go through the evaluation process, and prepare for prop firm challenges like FTMO – with a focus on stock trading, not forex or crypto.

What does prop trading stocks mean?

Proprietary trading (prop trading) means that you trade with a company’s funds rather than your own. Prop companies such as FTMO, MyForexFunds or others will give you access to a funded trading account once you prove that you can trade responsibly and meet their goals.

But here’s the catch

•  First, you must pass a trade trial. It comes with strict rules, such as:

• Reaching a profit target (e.g., 10%)

• Adhering to daily and total drawdown limits

• Trading for a minimum number of days

• Following a risk management strategy.

At BetonShares, we help you through this process with simple instructions, clear explanations and real-life examples designed for stock traders.

 We can help you find companies that support stock trading and give you the tools you need to overcome the challenges.
