Let me say this upfront. I have no problem if you don’t like prop firms and believe there to be better ways of going about growing as a trader. With that being said, I’ve seen some pretty bad critiques of prop firms that I would argue are arrived upon with logic filled with blind spots. While I’m not going to argue for prop firms per-se, I do want to make sure you, as a listener, are thinking through these choices with a full picture and understanding. I do admit, this critique is on the tricky side given the trueness of the critique. Perhaps you are now thinking, “Wait Clay… how can a “true” critique be “bad”???”. A more than fair question, and that’s what I want to address! Let’s get to it.
