This guy below did some digging and summed it up pretty well.

On further checking the website it has multiple grammar errors and looks like a paid Wordpress website from fiverr for $50.

Guess these days all you need is a cpl hundred $ and anyone can open a "prop firm"

Other question, does anyone know whether FTMO started 5 or 6 years ago like FT without copying any trades from traders, just to payout from collected fees only ?
Did FTMO then have problems with payouts to some traders in the past (say several years ago) too ?

FTMO has their own thread. I've never had an issue being paid and have heard of no others. When I did my first challenge 14 months ago, they were using LMAX, spreads were horrible. When they switched to their own server, 1-2 months of "bugs". All good now. If there were issues with payment in the past, I'm sure they would've been posted in the FTMO thread.

When i have started the thread 1 year after tracking them because to me too was no clear what is all about... but in my opinion now they are on top with serious competition of MFF... in the videos their CEO says that have serious 2 or 3 investitors who are engaged in the bussines, i'm with matermind thinking anyway as soon as you pass the evaluation no matter what happend with them you are in risk free game

The question to me is. When FT now makes payouts over $3 million monthly as I read on trustpilot (they also have the highest number of reviews of any prop firms there) and FTMO makes payout about $1.75 million for USD accounts, FT should be at least as big as FTMO now. So I would like to know if the way to go is the same as FTMO with having trades copied to live accounts, whether that is only a question of time.
But I do not know how FTMO started 5 or 6 years ago.

And for me it looks like that FTMO added recently Swing accounts allowing news trading and holding positions over the weekend, was due to pressure of the success from FT. Because it does not make sense to me why FTMO had it not added just much earlier, say 1 year ago or so when they switched to own server too.

you know you shouldn't believe everything you read right? FT has a history of brazen blatant dishonesty...so take all that $3mill and numerous reviews with a jar of salt.

FTMO still has the largest market share, with MFF creeping up,

That is what I doubt to be as said on previous post. I think this number of $3 miilion payout must be mentioned in their discord channel too (for me such a number cannot be from air only). It looks like (there are some indicators) that FT is number 1 now and FTMO is copying FT (with the new added Swing accounts).

I'd say 90% of the reviews on trust pilot are from FT affiliates. Trustpilot is an absolute joke.

FT have less than 1/2 of the web traffic that FTMO has... so... FT is good at lying as we already know by now.

...and when you take their (FT) own words that they grew so much recently that changes had to be made ? It makes sense when having view from a certain distance.
For me the conditions on FT are still #1, then MFF #2, and FTMO #3. FT just doing some switches to adjust the recent growth of new members. When there is no rule change anymore, then FT would be considered #1 in the prop firm space more clearly, like it was last month in July e.g., when they had best conditions far far away from any competitors. They are still better in conditions than FTMO. I just would like to hear no more issues with payouts, thats it.

Its likely 3million figure came from their total incoming revenue. Based on traffic stats that would be approximately accurate give or take a few hundred k.

The conditions you're referring to were fiction. I don't know how you can make these kinds of comparisons at this point with a straight face. We're talking about the same firm whose CEO responded to her clients by showing her naked ass on Instagram.

She also thought it was ok to post an ass selfie and has threatened pretty much every one of her competitors and any youtube who didn't climb on that mountain.
Unless she sends an audited statement from a big 4, I won't believe a fucking word she says.

Because it has been said several times from different persons here that FTMO also had problems when introducing their own server. Just to mention that fact here.
My original question was, how was FTMO doing 5 years ago (as comparison to FT now), did they copy trades to live accounts at that time too or not ?
