ATFunded Frequently Asked Questions

Do prop firms A-book?

It is highly unlikely that prop firms operate on a strictly a-book basis. It is vital that a prop firm operates using a dealing mechanism to limit financial risk and be sure that they are able to pay out their obligations. Selective hedging or various other dealing strategies would be a more effective way to manage order flow, at least initially, until it is clear that a trader can survive long-term.

ATFunded is transitioning select traders to the A-Book environment. Read more about that here.

Customer account grants you access to dashboard, and is created along your first order (or when signing up for a Demo account) or by administrator. Each trader can only own and operate on a single customer account created using their real personal details.

Creating additional customer accounts after your first, or operating using customer accounts belonging to other people is strictly prohibited, and will result in a suspension and breach of trading accounts involved.

Please Note: Each trader can own multiple trading accounts under their name, within the specified allocation limits, and associated with their customer account.

Group trading is engaging in trades in coordination with others, including across connected accounts or accounts across different entities, that aim to manipulate trading, such as entering into opposite positions simultaneously. Such practice is strictly forbidden on any of our programs, and will result in the breach of the trading account and suspension of customer account.

Extra trades (beyond the 4th) will still open, however, once the extra trades are closed, those profits will be removed.

If it appears that a trader is trying to bypass the rule — for example, by opening a trade for only 60 seconds and closing it right away — that trade may be disqualified.
If this happens, the trader will need to keep trading until the minimum requirement is met.
