Welcome to The Futures Desk, a proprietary trading firm designed with one goal in mind: to empower traders and redefine what’s possible in the world of prop trading. Many traditional prop firms focus on restrictions, hidden fees, and outdated systems, but here, the commitment is different. By investing heavily in cutting-edge technology, real-time insights, and personalized coaching, The Futures Desk offers a fresh approach aimed at building a true partnership with its traders.
What Sets The Futures Desk Apart?
Real-Time, Transparent Trading
Unlike firms that keep traders in simulations for long periods or impose complicated evaluation rules, The Futures Desk puts traders directly in live markets. This means every win and loss happens in real time, and payouts come from actual brokerage accounts, so the earnings you make are fully backed by live capital. When you have a great day, you can cash out immediately, without limitations or daily minimums.
Flexible Plan Builder and Customizable Assessments
Every trader is unique, and The Futures Desk’s fully customizable assessment options reflect that. You can choose the assessment structure that suits your trading style, adjust risk, and select from hundreds of combinations that vary in cost based on what you need. The goal? To create a trading plan that fits you and helps you succeed.
Key Features to Elevate Your Trading Experience
- Integrated, Real-Time Journaling and Tracking
The Futures Desk’s proprietary platform combines everything you need into one system. You can tag and track trades, add notes, set daily goals, and even review comprehensive reports, all within the platform. The live journaling feature eliminates the need for third-party systems, allowing you to monitor performance in real time and make informed decisions on the go. - One-on-One Coaching and Bi-Weekly Check-Ins
Free, personalized coaching is available to funded traders, and regular bi-weekly reviews help you refine strategies and improve. The coaching team provides feedback on your setups, statistics, and overall performance, giving you the tools to scale with confidence. - Daily Risk Management Visualization
With a daily risk bar that shows your daily max loss, The Futures Desk makes risk management straightforward. You can adjust your per-trade risk to see how it impacts your daily max loss visually, helping you stay within boundaries and avoid common trading pitfalls. - Tax Benefits and Partnership Structure
For U.S.-based traders, joining The Futures Desk means you get a K-1 form instead of a 1099, which can offer significant tax advantages. Additionally, the 75/25 profit split (with you keeping 75%) is designed to benefit both parties, ensuring that your success is always in the firm’s best interest. - Lower Fees and Access to Diverse Markets
With seats on the exchange, The Futures Desk reduces your execution fees by up to 40%. You can also trade a wide range of assets—whether you prefer bonds, cryptocurrency futures, micro scalping, or news trading—without restrictions on hold times or contract types, as long as it aligns with CME guidelines.
