[ Managed prop firm trading ]

Automated execution
software for prop firm accounts

We connect institutional-grade algorithmic strategies to your funded futures account or your own crypto
exchange account. Systematic entries, systematic risk limits, no discretionary overrides.
[ Data feed requirement ]
Important — choose Rithmic as your data feed
Our software connects exclusively to Rithmic's R|API+. Accounts set up with any other feed can't be used with our software, and the evaluation fee is non refundable in that case. Unsure during signup?
Contact us before paying.

Paid only from payouts.

No upfront fee. No subscription. No lock-in. We license the software against a share of what the prop firm actually pays out.

[ Why prop firm environments ]

Bounded risk, flexible scale.

Capped downside

Risk per account is capped at the evaluation price. The firm sets the drawdown limits; our software sizes positions within them.

Scalable deployment

Run one account or several, at your own risk tolerance. More accounts means more chances at a payout — and more capital at risk, not less.

Live algorithmic execution

A multi-strategy futures model, executed automatically for consistent ruleadherence — no discretionary overrides.

[ Deployment scale-up ]

Scale at your own pace.

Reinvest cleared payouts into additional evaluations — entirely your call, at every stage.

Stage 3
Stage 1
Initial launch
Start with one evaluation. If it pays out, you
can choose to reinvest into additional
evaluations.
Stage 2
Expansion phase
Scale at your own pace. Running several accounts means more that could fail, and more that could pay out — not lower overall risk.
Stage 3
Long-term run
Move to larger tiers when you choose to, as evaluations clear. This is your call each time, not an automatic progression.
Risk warning. These figures are illustrative, not guarantees. Futures trading carries substantial risk of loss. Past performance doesn't guarantee future results. Slippage, platform constraints, and volatility affect outcomes, and evaluations can fail to reach payout.
[ FAQ ]

Frequently asked questions

How many accounts should I run?
Start with 1 account, scale to as many as you want. No maximum. One account is the simplest starting point. Running multiple parallel accounts increases your probability of reaching a payout in any given month and smooths the variance of any single account failing. There is no upper limit — some clients run two, others run twenty. The software scales identically.
Which data feed do I need?
Rithmic. It is the only feed our software supports. Prop Firm Trading offers Rithmic as a selectable option during signup — make sure it is the one you pick. If you accidentally choose another feed, the account is not usable with our bot and you will have to purchase a new eval.
What if the evaluation fails?
You lose only the eval purchase price — typically around the cost of a single payout from a surviving account. Failed accounts are a normal, expected part of prop-firm trading. Our live data shows roughly 1 in 8 accounts fails before its first payout; the other 7 typically reach payout within a few weeks. Running multiple accounts in parallel smooths this variance significantly.
How is this different from your Deribit software?
The Prop Firm Package is our flagship product: automated directional futures execution running on prop-firm evaluation accounts. The Deribit Software Plan is our original product, still actively supported, which runs market-neutral basis and funding strategies on your own Deribit account. Both share the same principle — automated execution, zero custody handover. Most new clients start with the Prop Firm Package.
Do I send you my money?
No. You buy the prop firm eval directly from Prop Firm Trading under your own name. Funds never enter our accounts. We only receive trading API access to your prop firm account via Rithmic for our software to execute trades.
How is the 22% fee collected?
After every prop firm payout to you, you transfer 22% to InstitutionalHands for the software usage. Most clients use a recurring USDT or wire schedule.
