MyFundedFX has completed integrating cTrader following
weeks of turmoil in the industry. According to a statement on X, the proprietary
trading platform will be “stress testing it and ensuring it is bug-free.”
MyFundedFX mentioned: “Later next week, we aim
to go live with CTrader powered by Purple Trading SC. We have also been handed
over our MatchTrader server license and have begun the integration work for
that. Thank you for your patience as we provide more options for everyone!”

Adjusting to the Transition
On February 19, MyFundedFX, announced that it was
restricting US traders effective immediately. The platform exclusively restricted
users in this region to trading DXtrade challenges.

Currently, most proprietary trading firms are

Blackbull Markets’ decision to sever ties with
Funding Pips, a Dubai-based trading firm, underscored the severity of the
regulatory challenges faced in the industry. MetaQuotes’ actions have resulted
in a broader diversification trend among proprietary trading platforms, as they
integrate alternative trading platforms such as cTrader and Match-Trader.
Adapting to Regulatory Pressure
Some platforms, including The5ers and FTMO, have
halted services to US-based clients altogether, reflecting the broader industry
response to the restrictions.
Currently, many firms are dealing with this challenge, either ceasing operations or finding an alternative
solution. At Finance Magnates, we have created a live table to track the
changes by major proprietary trading companies.
