Ownership(@ownershipfm):Over founder Lili on how prop firms differ from other forms of trading: you pay to trade a simulated account, and get paid only if you hit the target. "A prop firm is an entirely different category, if I may say. It is not a trading platform per se, it's more like an evaluation platform, in a sense where everything that you see on the screen trading on is simulated." "Prop firm, I would say, has 2 main qualities. First, all these trading assets underneath are simulated. Most of the good prop firms use a real data set. So it's real data, simulated asset trading." "Second is that in order for you to get a payout, you would need to complete certain parameters within the episodic trading session, which is kind of different than some other trading platforms." "For a prop firm, you usually do not deposit margin or anything. So you pay kind of the ticket to get access to a bigger demo size, and then you trade on that. Once you hit a certain target, then you get a payout." FT @lililashka @overdotcomputer
