Prop-firm rule features

Updated September 4, 2026

Propfy exists because the model is rarely what breaks a prop firm account. The behaviour around it is.

Rule detection. You write your own rules — a maximum number of trades a day, a stop after consecutive losses, a per-trade risk ceiling — and Rule Enforcer marks the trades that broke them. The point is not the scolding. It is having an honest record of whether the setup was there before you entered.

Drawdown, per account. Risk Guardian measures each account against that account's own limit, never against a blended total. If you copy one signal across several prop accounts, the account nearest its limit is the one that headlines, because that is the one that ends your week.

Daily loss limits. Propfy attributes a trade to the trading day its exit falls in, in New York time, which is how prop firms count and therefore the only counting that helps you.

Counts and money are measured differently, on purpose. When one decision is mirrored across several accounts, Propfy counts that as ONE decision in your statistics — otherwise a five-account trader looks like they overtrade by five times. The money is never deduplicated: every dollar is real and every dollar is shown.

Propfy does not place, block or cancel orders. It is a journal and a mirror, not a broker.

Risk Disclosure

Futures and forex trading contains substantial risk and is not for every investor. An investor could potentially lose all or more than the initial investment. Risk capital is money that can be lost without jeopardizing one's financial security or lifestyle. Only risk capital should be used for trading and only those with sufficient risk capital should consider trading. Past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results.

Hypothetical Performance Disclosure

Hypothetical performance results have many inherent limitations, some of which are described below. No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those shown; in fact, there are frequently sharp differences between hypothetical performance results and the actual results subsequently achieved by any particular trading program. One of the limitations of hypothetical performance results is that they are generally prepared with the benefit of hindsight. In addition, hypothetical trading does not involve financial risk, and no hypothetical trading record can completely account for the impact of financial risk of actual trading. For example, the ability to withstand losses or to adhere to a particular trading program in spite of trading losses are material points which can also adversely affect actual trading results. There are numerous other factors related to the markets in general or to the implementation of any specific trading program which cannot be fully accounted for in the preparation of hypothetical performance results and all of which can adversely affect trading results.
