PTC Estimates™
Estimated Monthly Payouts™
Estimated payouts distributed to traders in a typical current month by tracked prop firms. Where a firm publishes payout evidence, that evidence leads the estimate; otherwise the value is modelled from estimated active traders.
What goes in
- Published payout totals, payout dashboards and payout proofs
- Payout-recipient counts, used as bounds rather than central values
- Estimated Active Traders™ combined with market-calibrated payout intensity
- Separate Forex and Futures calibration
Limitations
- Only firms with sufficient evidence quality are published at firm level; totals include the full modelled set
- Annualized figures are the current monthly rate × 12, not a trailing-year measurement
- Signals binding an upstream model are never reused as independent payout evidence
- Gross payouts to traders — not firm profit, revenue or net flows
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.
