Why the Broker Behind a Prop Firm Matters
The broker or execution model decides how your fills, spreads and slippage behave, which platforms you can use, and whether you are trading in a live or simulated environment. Most prop firms today run simulated accounts on real price data, so the important question is usually execution quality and platform choice rather than a household broker name. Knowing the setup at FTMO up front helps you set realistic expectations before you buy a challenge.
