They unfairly closed my account

They unfairly closed my account. When I commented on it here, they replied, "Please contact us via email," but I've been emailing them for about 4 months and haven't received a single response. I definitely do not recommend them; don't waste your efforts.

I had an excellent experience with Juan…

I had an excellent experience with Juan from For Traders support. He was professional, patient, and very knowledgeable, taking the time to clearly explain my concerns and provide practical solutions. His responses were prompt, respectful, and genuinely helpful, which made the entire process smooth and stress-free. Juan's dedication to customer satisfaction truly reflects the high standards of For Traders. I highly appreciate his support and would gladly recommend him to other traders.

A fraud, a complete scam.

After passing the One Step Challenge test, they deliberately denied my KYC verification to prevent me from validating my account, and with the Instant Master account, they closed my account to avoid paying me the money. This company is a complete scam and fraud. I bought two accounts, and they defrauded me with both. I have proof, and I hope they lose their license for being scammers.

As a firm, we are legally required to complete Know Your Customer (KYC) verification before validating accounts or issuing any payments. This process is not optional and is applied equally to all clients.

Importantly, we do not approve or reject KYC manually. All KYC checks are conducted exclusively through our independent third-party provider, Veriff, which specializes in identity verification and compliance. We do not have an internal team with the authority, tools, or access to perform background checks or override Veriff’s decisions in any way.

If a KYC verification is not approved, it is based solely on Veriff’s automated and compliance-driven assessment, and we are legally obligated to respect their result. We cannot validate an account or proceed with payments without a successful KYC outcome, regardless of account type or performance.

Claims that KYC was “deliberately denied” or that accounts were closed to avoid payment are factually incorrect. No account is ever restricted or closed for financial avoidance reasons, and all actions taken follow regulatory and contractual obligations.

We encourage any client with concerns to contact our support team directly so we can review the case transparently and provide clarification based on verifiable records.

I would like to express my gratitude to Pavel for his informative approach during my first experience with ForTraders.

The spread is very, very low. The commission is very low. It's the best place to trade.

Thank you to them.

This prop firm is better stay away

This prop firm is better stay away. Think twice to join this fortrader prop firm.after funded they take him time to evaluate. After evaluate during submitted 1st pay out they will the way to denied the pay out such arange verification call. They ask to explain trading strategy if they not confident with your explanation as they will flag you as copyrighted or using bots to trade even I been explain I trade my self and all role I follow margin below 40% and minimum entry lot. After 5th day from verification call , fortrader email me my 1st pay out been decline. My fortrader account was disabled instantly and the money and the profit that I ve earned was forfeited in favor of the prop firm. Trader are not presenter, speaker or teacher. And why trader need to explain out strategy most important we follow the rule and regulation set up by Fortrader. I don’t see any rule from this firm the need of every traders to explain their strategy. This Fortrader prop firm is not logic and will the best to denied the trader reward. Better stay away from this Fortrader prop firm. I waste my money and eating time previously buy their challenge.

For Traders operates under clearly defined rules and compliance procedures that every trader agrees to before joining a challenge. These procedures are in place to ensure fair trading conditions, protect the integrity of our funding program, and maintain a level playing field for all participants.

Regarding strategy verification:
In certain cases, especially before a first payout, our risk and compliance team may request a verification call or additional explanations. This is a standard industry practice used to confirm that trading activity is manual, rule-compliant, and not based on prohibited methods such as trade copying, automated bots, or copyrighted third-party strategies.
Traders are not required to be presenters, teachers, or public speakers. The request is simply to confirm ownership and understanding of the trading approach being used on the account. This requirement applies only when specific risk patterns or similarities trigger a compliance review.

Regarding account closure and payout denial:
If, after review, the trading activity cannot be confidently verified as compliant with our terms and conditions, the payout may be declined and the account disabled, as outlined in our agreement. This decision is never taken lightly and follows internal review procedures.

Clarification of the 40% margin rule:
The 40% margin rule means that a trader is not allowed to use more than 40% of the account’s available margin in:

a single trade, or

multiple trades in the same direction on the same instrument

This rule exists to limit excessive risk exposure and to ensure responsible risk management. Even if overall drawdown limits are respected, breaching the margin usage rule is considered a violation.

We strongly encourage all traders to thoroughly review our rules and terms before participating in a challenge. We regret that your experience did not meet your expectations, but we stand by our policies, which are applied consistently to all traders.

We wish you success in your future trading endeavors.

PROOF INSIDE: 'For Traders' Admits to Rigged 250ms Lag, Then Bans Account to Avoid $850 Payout.

The Short Version:
I was a profitable trader ($850 realized profit). A technical glitch on their proprietary "Platform X" failed to cancel a limit order I had removed before sleeping. The "ghost order" filled overnight and breached my account. When I asked for help, support admitted their platform has a 250ms artificial delay (screenshot attached), demanded impossible "video evidence" of a past event, and then banned me permanently when I complained, citing "Code of Conduct" to steal my profit.
The Detailed Evidence:
1. The "Ghost Order" Glitch: On Jan 22, I flattened my account and cancelled all limit orders. The client-side app showed them removed. However, the server-side kept them active. This synchronization failure caused a position to open while I slept.
2. The Admission of Rigged Latency: When I contacted support, their own AI agent stated: "We apply delays up to 250ms to simulate real market conditions." (See Screenshot 1).
• Reality Check: Real futures execution is 20-50ms. By injecting 250ms of lag, they are intentionally breaking the connection between your click and the server. This caused my "Cancel" command to be dropped.
3. The Impossible Evidence Trap: Agents Tony and Michal demanded I provide "video evidence" of me cancelling the order hours after it happened. How can I video record the past? When I sent video of their platform glitching in real-time (login loops, errors), they dismissed it as "internet issues" despite my 100Mbps connection.
4. Retaliatory Termination: After I proved their platform was at fault and demanded my legitimate $850 profit, they stopped replying to the technical issue and banned my account for "Code of Conduct" violations. They weaponized their ToS to silence a valid creditor.
Conclusion:
'For Traders' is not running a fair prop firm. They are running a simulated environment with rigged latency (250ms) designed to cause errors. If you profit, they will find a "glitch" to breach you. If you complain, they will ban you. Do not trust them with your capital.
To 'For Traders' Management:
I have the full transcripts. I have the latency admission. Reinstating Account #7333184 and processing my $850 payout is the only way to resolve this.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We take all trader concerns seriously and want to clarify the situation from our side.

After receiving your report, our technical and support teams conducted a thorough review of your account activity and the platform logs. Based on our investigation, no platform-side glitches, order-cancellation failures, or system errors were identified at the time in question. Additionally, we did not find any similar reports from other traders using the same platform during that period.

To help us investigate further, we requested verifiable evidence. Unfortunately, no evidence confirming a platform malfunction was provided, which limited our ability to take corrective action. The video shared later did not demonstrate an issue related to the order execution or cancellation in question.

While we understand how frustrating account breaches can be, especially after taking risk-management steps, we must rely on system data and verifiable evidence when reviewing such cases. Based on all available information, the issue appears to have originated outside our platform, and therefore we are unable to reinstate the account or profits.

That said, we want to be clear: we are not dismissing your concerns. If you are able to provide new or concrete evidence showing a platform error related to this incident, our team remains open to reviewing it.

We remain committed to fair practices, platform stability, and transparent communication with all traders.

Extremely Disappointing Experience – Profits Removed Twice Using Unclear Margin Rules

Update after ForTraders’ public response:

Thank you for your reply.

However, your response does not accurately reflect what actually happened, and I would like to clarify the facts precisely.

First incident:
In the first case, you informed me by email that the 40% margin rule was breached and, based on that, more than $4,000 in profits were removed.
At that time, despite the fact that this specific margin calculation method was not publicly explained or clearly disclosed, I accepted your decision in good faith. We mutually agreed to remove the profits and reset the account, with the clear understanding that the issue was resolved and closed.

Second incident:
In the second case, I traded again after following your instructions, using your own lot size calculator and margin methodology. My account size was $50,000, my exposure was conservative, and no 40% margin breach occurred under any transparent calculation.

Despite this, you removed $3,000 in profits again, without providing any concrete numerical breakdown or evidence of a new violation. What effectively happened is that I was penalized a second time for the first incident, which had already been acknowledged, settled, and closed.

This creates a very serious problem:
• It implies that even after accepting a penalty and resetting the account, any future profits can be removed repeatedly,
• Based not on a new violation, but on a previously resolved issue,
• Making it impossible for a trader to ever trade with confidence or finality.

In other words, under this logic, no amount of future compliance would ever protect a trader’s profits, because the same past event can be reused indefinitely as justification.

Additionally, this is not an isolated experience. There are multiple reports of disputed and denied payouts from other traders publicly available on platforms such as PropFirmMatch, which further supports the concerns raised in my review.

Regarding support, while you state that your team aims to help, my experience was the opposite. The communication felt provocative, dismissive, and focused on delay rather than resolution, despite my consistently respectful and professional tone.

Finally, I would like to state clearly:
I possess all documentation, emails, chat logs, and trade records that support my position. Everything written in my review reflects exact events as they occurred, without exaggeration, misrepresentation, or added claims.

This response is not written out of emotion, but out of concern for transparency and fairness. Traders deserve clear, final, and enforceable rules — not outcomes that can change after profits are made, even when previous issues were already resolved.

This review remains an accurate reflection of my
experience.

I am sharing my personal experience with ForTraders, and unfortunately it has been extremely disappointing.

After receiving a funded account, I faced repeated issues with profit removal based on what they call the “40% margin rule.” Despite carefully calculating margin usage and trading well below the stated limits, my profits were removed twice.
• First incident:
More than $4,000 in profits were deleted, with the explanation that I must use their “own margin calculation method,” which was never clearly documented in advance.
• Second incident:
I strictly followed their instructions, used their official lot size calculator, applied their method exactly as requested, and traded very conservatively.
My account size is $50,000, and I traded 0.3 lot on XAUUSD, which is clearly far below 40% margin usage by any standard calculation.
Even then, after making $3,000 in profit, the profits were removed again for the same reason.

This raises serious concerns about transparency and consistency. Rules appear to be interpreted retroactively, making it impossible for traders to know in advance whether their profits will be honored.

Additionally, my experience with customer support was very frustrating. Despite always communicating politely and professionally, the support responses felt provocative, dismissive, and unhelpful, rather than focused on resolving the issue fairly.

Another major red flag is the lack of publicly verifiable payout proofs. From my experience and from discussions with other traders, it appears that profits above small amounts are frequently disputed or denied, which severely undermines trust.

This is not how a professional prop firm should operate.
A funded trader should not have profits removed after trades are closed, rules are followed, and risk is clearly controlled.

I strongly advise traders to proceed with extreme caution and to document everything if they choose to work with this company.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback.

We respectfully disagree with the conclusions presented in this review. In both instances referenced, our team provided clear and documented evidence that the 40% Margin Rule was breached. This rule is not retroactive, nor is it applied arbitrarily.

The 40% Margin Rule is clearly and consistently communicated across our:

Website

Help Center

Terms & Conditions

All traders are required to review and agree to these terms prior to purchasing and activating an account. By proceeding, the trader explicitly acknowledged understanding and acceptance of these rules.

Regarding margin calculations, we apply a standardized internal margin usage calculation, which is fully aligned with our risk framework and applies equally to all traders. While we provide tools such as a lot size calculator to assist traders, responsibility for compliance ultimately remains with the trader. In this case, the trading activity exceeded the permitted margin usage as defined in our rules, which resulted in the removal of profits in accordance with our policies.

We also want to clarify that profit removals only occur when a rule violation is confirmed and verified, never without cause. Our support team’s role is to enforce rules fairly and consistently, not to provoke or dismiss concerns. We regret if the interaction felt unsatisfactory, but all communications were based strictly on factual rule enforcement.

Finally, we strongly reject the implication that rewards are denied arbitrarily. ForTraders processes rewards daily for traders who follow the rules, and verified reward records are regularly shared through our official channels.

We believe it is not fair to characterize our company negatively based on a situation where established rules were not followed, despite being clearly disclosed and agreed upon in advance.

We remain committed to transparency, fairness, and equal rule enforcement for all traders.

Great Experience!

Overall, I’ve had a good experience with this prop firm. At one point my account was breached, but after reviewing what happened, they gave me another chance since I genuinely didn’t fully understand one of the rules at the time. I really appreciated that, because it showed they were willing to be fair and not just immediately disqualify traders without hearing them out.

Their challenges are a great way to get started and dive straight into trading a funded account, which is what most traders are really aiming for. The rules are flexible enough compared to many other firms, and the profit split is reasonable and competitive.

Like with any prop firm, you still need to make sure you fully understand the rules before trading, but once you do, it’s a solid opportunity for traders who are serious about improving and getting funded.

I recently had an issue with my trading…

I recently had an issue with my trading account due to my own negligence, and I reached out to ForTraders’ customer care team for assistance. I was fortunate to be helped by TONY, who provided outstanding support, resolving the problem quickly and professionally.

The level of patience, clarity, and dedication shown during the process truly stood out. It gave me confidence that ForTraders not only values its traders but also ensures that their concerns are handled with care and efficiency.

I’m grateful for the assistance I received and highly recommend ForTraders to anyone looking for a reliable prop firm to trade with. Their customer service is top-notch, and the support team—especially TONY—demonstrates the kind of professionalism every trader hopes to find.
Thank you, ForTraders, for making the trading journey smoother and more reassuring!
