Trading Track Record

[Tiney Winey]

Hi,

When a prop firm requests a trading track record for joining a team, what is minimum length of swing trading history you should have before submitting an application?

Thanks

Every firm has different conditions.
You'll need to ask the firm the same
question.

Thanks. I'll include pics from Scores to get a response from them.

That's how they pronounce it in the Appalachian mountains.

When prop firms request a trading track record, they typically look for a history that demonstrates consistent performance and risk management over time. While there isn't a one-size-fits-all answer, a minimum of 1 to 2 years of trading history can be a good starting point. This period allows you to show how you've navigated various market conditions, which is valuable information for prop firms. It's not just about the length, though; the quality of your trading decisions, your risk-to-reward ratio, and how you've managed drawdowns are equally important.
