PTC Estimates™
Estimated Funded Traders™
A funded trader is a person currently holding at least one funded account — simulated-funded included — at a tracked prop firm. These are scenario estimates: the range matters more than the central value.
What goes in
- Disclosed funded-trader and funded-account counts, used as anchors
- Published payout proofs and payout-recipient counts as lower bounds
- Estimated Active Traders™ as the upstream population
- Market-calibrated funded-stock ratios per Forex and Futures
Limitations
- Presented range-first — the central value is a scenario, not a measurement
- Firms below the publication threshold are not listed individually
- Simulated-funded and live-funded accounts are not separated
- Signals already used upstream are never reused as independent funded evidence
How to read this
PTC estimates are modelled from public evidence and proprietary methodologies. They are not company-reported figures unless explicitly identified as such.
Estimates cover the Tracked Market — the prop firms PTC actively monitors — and are not a census of every firm in existence. Read the methodology.
