The Prop Firm Industry Report.

Every statistic below is computed directly from FundedWiki's decoded rulebooks — 43 firms, 448 rules, each verified against the firm's own terms and re-checked as terms change. No surveys, no estimates: this is what the industry's fine print actually says. Free to cite with attribution.

How dangerous is the fine print?

Of the 448 decoded rules, 207 void the account outright, 121 can deny a payout, and 120 are soft (warnings / voided trades). The dataset also tracks 113 “hidden” rules — terms that don't appear on marketing pages but live in the ToS.

Rating spread: 26 of 43 firms score 8+/10 on FundedWiki; 0 score below 6.
