THIS IS NOT A PROP FIRM

Nobody at FTT knows anything about how real prop works or real trading for that matter. They’re a bunch of SIM traders that act like used car salesmen, with a cut rate B grade dev team. As far as bucket shops go, this is one of the worst. Hopefully this current trend of “sim-funded” dies as fast as it started. I’m sure for new traders it seems like a great opportunity. Pay a small fee, get access to more “risk” than you might be able to come up with for a live account. That is a facade. What you’re really doing is paying your buy in to the casino. Every aspect of how FTT is setup, as with all the SIM bucket shops, is to the disadvantage of the participant. Not only that, they truly promote very bad habits if you ever actually want to trade a real account. Like the consistency rule for example, incentivizes new traders to cap their good days so they don’t make “too much” in one day if they want to be able to get paid any time soon. They pass it off by saying they want to see “consistent traders” and if you’re new you’ll probably buy into that. If you have a few real years under your belt as a true CPT you already know what a crock of sh!t that is. Then there’s the end of day trailing drawdown, better than intraday trail of course, still completely horrible and is in no way relevant to real trading at all. If you’re a new trader, as soon as you hear trailing drawdown, run away from that bucket shop as quick as possible. Again they’ll try to justify it by saying they want to see “good risk management and consistent profits”. Yeah I’m sure they do(sarcasm). What it really means is they want to give you the least likely chance of beating their game as possible. And again, no way realistic to actual trading. These bucket shops are not prop firms and they never will be. It’s unfortunate because now this is what new traders think prop trading is. It is not even close to what real prop trading is. I’ve had the opportunity to trade on three live desks during my tenure as a trader, two in Chicago and one in NYC. Prop firms do not have trailing drawdowns, they do not have “consistency” rules, their traders aren’t customers they’re partners and/or employees. In real prop, you get a daily loss limit and a size limit if you’re new and that’s it, no more rules. You’re given TT, no rithmic no tradovate, I never even heard of that sh!t until I checked out these sim bucket shops. You’re paid your percentage of your profits every month or quarter, if you perform poorly over time you’re let go. That’s prop. Trading a sim account with a trailing drawdown, consistency rules, a “buffer zone”, a daily P/L requirement for it to count(because you have to trade a certain amount of “real” days to get paid) and withdrawal limits, is not prop. It’s sh!t, run by clowns and sh!t salesmen. Forget prop, it’s not even close to what actual trading is like in any way. If you’re new and you choose to go this route instead of funding a live account and/or networking with real prop firms for a seat on a desk(it’s easier than you’d think), I wish you luck with your time in the casino, and I hope it doesn’t slow you down too much from developing some real trading edge. At the very least go with one of the other bucket shops and avoid this one.

Scam Company

They are over 1 month behind on tickets, and they cannnot pay their traders. They retroactively changed rules on people after requesting a payout. They have changed their rules to needing a buffer to withdraw which is no different than passing an eval. You are paying the activation fee up front. The customer service team are a bunch of arrogant folk. Go on their discord and look what happens to anyone who speaks negatively, they get timed out, or blasted, called clowns, etc. This company is run by non-professionals who are scamming. This company will not last past Q1 of 2025. Avoid them at all cost, they stole thousands from me and denied me payouts of just below 6 figures because of rule changes with buffers and minimum days. (No I never flipped, even though it supposedly was allowed). They offered refunds in the discord but I don't think they have processed any, and are basically ignoring my e-mail now. Bunch of traders and I are looking into a class action law suit. Stay away!

Best Pro firm I have traded with


Best Pro firm I have traded with. Zero commisions, Free level 2 data, free bookmap, straight to funding. No BS evals or activation fees. No rebills, or trading limit days. They're Little behind on payouts, but no issues gotten paid through Rise fast. It definitly is a game changer in the industry and beacuse of FTT other firms had to adjust to it. I love them 💗 I believe my life could be change with them. Keep up the great work guys. Thanks

Stay away far away

Stay away far away. No process. All lies. Out of cash. Only prop firm to implement new rules retroactively. Their process and system is like a 1st grader doing mistakes and never passes 1st grade.
All are goons and very unprofessional and dont think they ever ran any business before.

They don’t pay stay away

They don’t pay stay away. The CEO is a complete mess. Their employees are nothing but gas lighters. Anybody who asked for their payment just gets told to wait or completely ignored. They have no money left to pay unless people keep buying accounts with them they are a scam company. They have promised so many things and never kept them. They changed their rules retroactively which denied a lot of people payouts the only reason they did this is because they have no money to pay the people that were already approved for payouts . When you got a worst reputation than Apex you know something has gone completely wrong. If I could give negative stars I would.

“You can please some of the people all of the time, you can please all of the people some of the time, but you can’t please all of the people all of the time”.

As John Lydgate said: “You can please some of the people all of the time, you can please all of the people some of the time, but you can’t please all of the people all of the time”.

People post comments based on personal experiences as well as "perceived" experiences of others which they think would apply to themselves. This is how unfounded rumors tend to start.

As for my very own personal experience, I have found FTT to be compliant and easy to work with. They have gone beyond the extra mile to address issues I have presented and have over-delivered. One has to realize that any company that experiences sudden/exponential growth is going to suffer growing pains and will make mistakes along the way. The point here is that they do LEARN from any mistakes and are more than willing to modify/correct them.

Many are upset because of the new rules that were introduced retroactively. And so, had those rules not been implemented, how much longer would FTT be able to stop the bleeding from unscrupulous individuals?

I also see that a lot of the comments and questions asked on Discord are repetitive and clearly indicate that people no longer seem to want to take the time to READ instructions and posts. As a result, many of these repetitive questions appear to be complaints. Quite frankly, I have to salute the support staff for the patience they have in answering a lot of the nonsense that is posted.

I have had a positive experience with FTT so far and I fully expect this to continue well into the future. If they need to implement new rules in the future, then so be it. Remember: "he who has the gold, makes the rules".

Now go trade and be successful!!!

Two-Bit Hustler, Without Any Of The Con Artist Charm

The scammer behind this company is Scott Trieste. I won’t repeat all of the other reviews (believe them, they are genuine, he pays and bribes people with the promise of payouts for positive reviews on here, but he finally got overwhelmed by 1-star reviews from genuine people).

Search the New Jersey Municipal Court website to get a taste of who you are dealing with. There is at least one outstanding warrant for his arrest on a petty theft charge.

There is blatant criminality here for a bait-and-switch fraud. Hopefully the NJ attorney general and the CFTC will act.

Most con men charm their victims. He’s just a jerk. Believe the reviews here, spend some time on his discord server, search twitter for posts about his dishonesty and the people the deadbeat has defrauded out of the money he owes them.

He took in millions of dollars from unsuspecting people who agreed to simple, favorable “funded trader” rules—straight to funded, 20 percent consistency and maintaining a 5 percent buffer to avoid losing / blowing the account. Then, get paid any profits you request.

Except the payouts never came for the vast majority of people. When people made their requests, first the BS started, with endless delays, endless, unaddressed tech problems, etc. A lot of the desperate people remained polite, went into his discord server and kissed backsides hoping to get what they were owed. ... only to be gaslighted and treated like a chew toy by him and the other people involved in the fraud.

Eventually he just stiffed everyone he owes money to and shrugged his shoulders in what was essentially a "What are you going to do about it?" move.

One thing not covered in many of the reviews on here: His MO seems to be to do token payouts to say, “Look at the payouts. We pay!”. … small random payouts. ... while the vast majority of people he owes money to have been stiffed.

Even more sinister and dishonest, is that he is clearly paying people with a lot social media followers to dishonestly promote and hype his scam. Shame on them too. Don’t fall for this transparent con man and deadbeat.

Don't expect FTT to honor its commitments.

When I signed up FTT promised Bookmap, and said EUREX and Ninja Trader support were imminent. A month later none of this is available. And worse, FTT retroactively changed its rules to deny paying out $10m to traders who had met all the requirements. Even traders who meet the new requirements are still waiting more than a month. Check out FTT's discord and decide for yourself whether this is a firm you'd like to work with.

Where do I start

Where do I start? Threatening us to not write a 1 star review? all of a sudden rule change? Screwing traders over? Charge back then you will probably be assassinated by Scott himself. What a joke of a company. If I could give 0 star, I would have. Stay as far away as possible. Tradeify and this company are built for the traders to fail not to prosper. Not only are they both expensive asl, no guarantee you’ll get a payout.

Sudden rule changes. NEEDS WORK

Although I did receive a payout (took about a month from request to fully processed) new rules being implemented on the weekly basis disqualified me from another payout. The rules for payouts were updated two times in the span of two weeks. I had submitted a payout request three weeks before any rule changes. Even after the first sudden rule changes I still qualified for a payout, I did not after the second rules changes. Customer support is terrible and needs major improvements on response times. However, they were quick to send my denial email as soon as the rules updated disqualifying me from a payout. Guess only denials are responded to urgently. Had I received a response even two weeks after initial payout request I would’ve still qualified for another payout. I do believe the new rules are fair and attainable, however very upset that they can deny payout requests that followed the previous rules in place. I trade with multiple firms and wanted to make FTT my go to. Unfortunately these events have led me to only use it sporadically in caution that new rules being implemented with no heads up can alter previous rule abiding payouts. Hope this helps fellow traders.

Stay far, far away, ideally in a different galaxy...

Blatantly retroactive rule changes to avoid payouts. Repeated missed deadlines. Payouts delayed by weeks with zero accountability. Dishonest claims about Tradeovate and NinjaTrader integration—dragged on for months and still not delivered. Harassment and threats toward traders and affiliates. Open hostility: anyone questioning the platform or expressing concern is labeled a “snowflake,” banned, or silenced. This operation is a red flag from every angle. STAY FAR AWAY!

Stole $10 Million from traders

FTT is a total scam. CEO Scott Trieste and his partner Varun Muthu stole $10 million from traders by retroactively changing the rules and denying payouts to traders who legitimately earned them. They threaten to dox people who criticize them. Scott Trieste has been arrested 7 times and has a criminal history of theft and fraud. He is using funds from FTT to buys exotic cars. There needs to be a criminal investigation into FTT and Scott Trieste and Varun Muthu should go to prison.

Fast Track Trading markets itself as a…

Fast Track Trading markets itself as a champion for traders, but in reality, it's the opposite. They retroactively changed their rules to deny payouts, amounting to millions of dollars held back from traders who earned it. This is not just unethical—it’s a deliberate move to pad their pockets at traders’ expense.

Even more insulting is the CEO's attitude, telling traders not to "bite the hand that feeds them." Let's be clear: it’s traders that feed this CEO and this company. Instead of encouraging growth and empowering their traders, Fast Track Trading builds up walls to keep earnings in their own accounts. This company thrives on its massive ego and hunger for cash, disregarding the integrity and hard work of the very people who sustain it.

For those looking for a supportive, fair trading environment—look elsewhere. Fast Track Trading is NOT the place.

"Fast Track Trading is incredibly disappointing and feels like a scam. They retroactively change the rules, making it nearly impossible to succeed under their shifting requirements. The customer service is unresponsive and unhelpful, which only adds to the frustration. I strongly advise against using this platform—stay away and look elsewhere for a more transparent and reliable trading experience.

He fails to pay my $3,000 affiliate commissions

There is a lot of controversy, contradictions and confusion for many people around the world about FTT - The Truth- FTT CEO is a Fraud criminal, the company is not promoting a pure trading environment. The impression you will see instantly is , The CEO is racist ,he has a white supremacy mindsets , he hates black folks that don’t talk white - he acts like The wolf of Wall Street. I’ve spoken to 22 traders directly myself. Including some traders Scott knows from the discord agree with me.

Let alone the many more there is.
He banned me from FTT discord for NO legitimate reason.

I have +$3000 in commission he failed to pay. It’s been MONTHs. He banned me because he thinks I’m from another country but I am a US Citizen who further more worked and trained alongside Navy Seals Team 5 / ODA / Army Rangers.

He will threaten you if you leave a bad review anywhere. He mentally manipulated everyone in his discord.

There are dozens of futures online firms to trade with. S T A Y. A W A T. FROM. FTT.

FTT must be investigated.

I am NasdaqSniper on discord.
Scott send my $3,000 commission (ach) then I’ll delete this review.
(I’ve witnessed everything I’m saying as I was a former trader who has not received a single payment yet I’ve sold +$20k in commissions)
