Prop trading accounts
What is the ultimate success rate statistical benchmark for retail traders attempting to maintain a funded futures account for over 180 days?
By Easy Money Scanner · Educational reference · Not investment advice
The short answer
No audited, universal success-rate statistic exists for retail traders sustaining funded futures accounts beyond 180 days; claims vary and are largely unverified publicly.
How it works
Most prop firms do not publish independently audited long-term trader survival data, so any specific percentage figure should be treated with skepticism.
An example
A firm's marketing cites an unaudited pass-rate figure.
Risk & limitations
No regulator verifies these statistics; avoid treating them as fact.
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.
