I have some reservations about proprietary trading firms because they may not be suitable for every trading strategy. Additionally, I perceive proprietary trading firms as offering the appearance of substantial capital, for example, paying $200 to access $3,000 in funds with the condition that I'll lose the account if I experience a total drawdown of 10%. In my view, this essentially means I've been provided an additional $100 (10% of $3,000 is $300) alongside my initial funds for trading in the market. The expectation of making a 10% profit to meet the requirements feels more like a 100% increase (doubling the initial $300).
The only advantage i see here is the leverage...Or what are your thoughts on this perspective?
