Prop trading accounts
What is the Profit Split Percentage and how do funded retail traders extract withdrawals from prop firm entities?
By Easy Money Scanner · Educational reference · Not investment advice
The short answer
The profit split is the percentage of trading gains a funded trader keeps, commonly ranging across firms, paid out as independent contractor withdrawals after verification.
How it works
Firms set split ratios contractually; withdrawal processing, minimums, and timing policies differ and are governed by each firm's individual agreement, not by regulation.
An example
A trader receives their contracted share of net profits.
Risk & limitations
No standardized percentage exists; confirm exact terms before signing.
Examples are hypothetical, not trade recommendations. US contract and regulatory references do not automatically apply in Canada. Rules, margin requirements and broker policies can change; confirm them with the relevant authority and your broker.
