Tools for charting, journaling and copying trades: charting on TradingView (affiliate link: we may earn a commission, at no extra cost to you), a trade journal (TradeZella) and trade copiers (Tradesyncer, Tradecopia). Prices and our take: trading tools for prop firm traders. A copier is only allowed where the firm allows copy trading (see the rules matrix).
Futures trading involves substantial risk of loss. Prop firm evaluations are paid products; most traders do not pass.
