The Independent Referee for Prop Trading
Since 2022 we’ve helped traders separate the firms that actually pay out from the ones that don’t — with dated evidence, not hype.
Proprietary trading exploded in popularity — and so did the noise. Inflated rankings, hidden rules and payout horror stories made it almost impossible to tell a serious program from a marketing machine.
We built FundedTrading to be the calm, institutional referee the space was missing: a first-class financial media property, not a coupon aggregator. We log real, on-chain payout evidence, read every firm’s rulebook end to end, and normalise pricing so comparisons are fair.
Our reviews are drafted with AI assistance and then edited and approved under a real team member’s byline — every published review has an accountable human behind it. When a link earns us a commission we say so, and it changes nothing about the score.
What We Stand For
Independent by Design
We are not a prop firm and never will be. Scores answer to traders, not advertisers — a firm cannot pay to rank higher.
Evidence First
Every verdict is built from dated, on-chain payout proofs, a line-by-line read of the rules, and normalised pricing.
A Named Team
Editorial credibility is spread across real, named reviewers — not one anonymous voice and not a single point of failure.
Radical Transparency
We disclose affiliate relationships plainly and often — and state clearly that commission never moves a score.

The Team Behind the Scores
Editorial credibility spread across named people — not one anonymous voice.
Alex Firdaus is Head of Media at FinMedia Group and lead editor at FundedTrading.com. He has traded crypto since 2014, through three full market cycles, which is where his interest in funding models and payout mechanics started. Before moving into prop firm coverage he spent close to a decade as a Google search quality rater, with additional experience evaluating results for Bing, then worked in SEO consulting. He has led FundedTrading.com's content and search strategy since 2022, and reads firm rule pages directly rather than working from other reviews. His coverage focuses on drawdown calculation, payout eligibility, consistency rules and prop firm due diligence.
Runs commercial and pricing decisions — kept deliberately separate from editorial scoring so partnerships never move a rating.
Fajar Febriansyah is Head of Copywriting at FinMedia Group, specializing in content strategy, SEO, and website copy for the trading and finance industry. With over six years of experience in copywriting and digital content, he has worked across prop trading, brokerage, fintech, and B2B brands. At FinMedia Group, he leads copy development across its platforms, creating research-driven content, social media strategies, website copy, and marketing campaigns focused on clarity, credibility, and audience relevance.
