FTMO is a proprietary trading firm based in Prague, Czech Republic, founded in 2015 by Otakar Šuffner and Marek Vašíček. The company helps traders prove their skills through an online evaluation program. If traders pass the challenge by trading profitably and following risk rules, FTMO gives them access to a funded trading account, where they can trade with the company’s capital and keep a share of the profits (usually up to 90%). FTMO doesn’t act as a broker — it doesn’t hold customer deposits or provide trading to the public. Instead, it’s a performance-based funding platform that partners with various liquidity providers and brokers to simulate real trading conditions. FTMO has grown into one of the largest and most trusted prop firms in the world, serving thousands of traders globally and expanding its presence through FTMO Australia (VRGK Tech Pty Ltd) and a strategic partnership with OANDA.
