The proportion of retail CFD traders who ever get as far as making an average 5% per month steadily is very tiny.
According to the director of the UK’s FCA regulatory agency (who have access to all the account figures) it’s well under 1% of people.
If you’re really successful enough to be among that 1% of people, and if you get funded through FTMO and withdraw profits regularly (even though it‘s widely reported that only 1 person in 500 gets as far as a single payout, there), that would therefore mean that a $10k account might bring you an average of $500 per month, and a $200k account might bring you an average of $10k per month. Less FTMO’s cut, because you don’t get 100% of the profit?
Those are just averages, of course. There would still be some losing months, included among the figures making up those averages, as there are for everyone.
That’s sometimes a problem in forums.
You’re asking a very specific question about a specific company, FTMO, and if you limit the answers to people with experience of them, that means you won’t hear from any of the experienced, successful traders who looked at FTMO and discovered bad things and rejected it (because obviously they don’t have experience of dealing with FTMO).
Do you think you might possibly end up seeing only one side of the story, that way?
I think all the links in Diva’s kind post, above, could be very helpful to you, if you read them carefully enough.
Anyway, I’ll stop there, because I have no experience of dealing with FTMO, myself (and I wouldn’t want to) so you don’t want to hear from me.
I do still wish you good luck, though, whichever way you decide to go.
