What is prop trading and how does it work?

What is proprietary trading (prop trading)?

Proprietary trading, commonly known as prop trading, is a model where a company provides capital for traders to trade the financial markets.

Instead of using personal funds, traders operate using the firm’s capital and can earn a share of the profits generated. At RZR funded, traders may receive up to 95% of the virtual profits as a performance-based reward, depending on the account type.
