Recommending prop trading to friends definitely requires making sure they understand the risks first, exactly as you said. Trading funded accounts involves strict drawdown limits, consistency rules, and news restrictions that can catch beginners off guard if they are not fully prepared.
Understand the rules: Every firm has unique daily loss limits and drawdown structures.
Manage expectations: Most traders fail challenges on their first tries due to poor risk management.
If you do point friends toward prop firms, encourage them to research thoroughly and check reviews first. We always suggest reviewing detailed evaluations on trusted platforms before jumping in. How do you usually explain the risks to people who ask you about trading?
