You have decided to dive into the exciting world of trading, but here the big question comes out — should you go solo as a retail trader, relying on your capital and strategies? Or should you join a proprietary firm, gaining access to professional resources and the firm’s capital to boost your potential? Understanding the key differences can help you decide which type of trading suits your trading goals and personality best.
Retail and prop trading differ fundamentally in terms of capital, risk, support, and growth opportunities. Retail traders fund their trades with their own funds meaning that they cannot take the scale. They also bear the risk of being 100% financially liable for any losses made. Prop traders are funded by the trading company, which means less personal risk, sharing the profits with the firm.
Retail traders usually work independently, relying on personal research and self-education, which can be time-consuming and inclined to trial and error. In contrast, Prop firms have much more incentive to educate traders since their own capital is at stake. As a result, training provided by these firms is much more hands-on and valuable. Additionally, while retail trading allows for full control and flexibility, it lacks the collaborative and resource-rich environment that prop firms provide, making it harder to compete at scale.
