Origin

Why ProprietaryTrading.com was created

ProprietaryTrading.com was founded by Zack Nadel to make a fragmented and often difficult-to-compare industry easier to research and navigate. Traders should be able to understand how firms differ, evaluate their options, and find opportunities that match how they trade — without relying on scattered websites, promotional claims, or incomplete comparisons.

What the site provides

What we do

Research

Structured profiles and information covering firms across multiple proprietary-trading models.

Compare

Tools that help traders compare rules, markets, platforms, account structures, payouts, and other relevant differences.

Match

Personalized matching based on a trader's preferences and documented firm information.

Connect

Ways for traders, firms, and other industry participants to make direct connections.

Alongside those tools we publish industry data and benchmarks, news and analysis, and educational guides. Trader reviews and employer reviews are both tracked, and they are always displayed separately.

How the information is maintained

How our research works

We collect and organize information from firm websites, public records, documented company materials, third-party review platforms, and other relevant sources. Automated monitoring helps identify changes, while uncertain, conflicting, or high-impact information may be routed for additional review.

Trader ratings and employer ratings measure different experiences and are never averaged together.

Ownership disclosure

Ownership transparency

ProprietaryTrading.com and Integra Trade share common ownership and operation. Integra Trade is included in the ProprietaryTrading.com database and is subject to the same published methodology, rating rules, match methodology, and ranking safeguards applied to other firms.

Common ownership does not give Integra Trade preferential ratings, rankings, verification status, match scores, directory placement, or editorial treatment.

Business model

How we make money

Some links to firms are affiliate links. If a user follows one of these links and makes a purchase, ProprietaryTrading.com may earn a commission at no additional cost to the user. Not every external firm link is an affiliate link.

ProprietaryTrading.com may also earn revenue by offering services to firms and other industry businesses, including job postings, advertising, data products, and connection tools.

Firms cannot pay to be added, removed, re-ranked, or hidden. Commercial relationships and common ownership do not influence ratings, rankings, match results, verification status, or directory inclusion.
