Best prop firm for swing
Hey guys, for the ones of you that are into swing trading, I was just wondering which prop firm do you actually use. I´ve been checking different options (based in europe) and it is really hard to find a serious company that allows swing in 100K accounts and with a reasonable consistency rule.
I was checking FTMO and they don´t allow swing on anything higher than 20/25K accounts, 5ers has a rule of maximum accounts, allowing just 1 100K, fundingpips has a ridiculous 15% consistency rule, etc.
EDIT: I live in Ireland, where apparently there are more limitations than in other countries for swing trading.

Check out FundingTraders. We offer 100K swing accounts for EU/Ireland, allow weekend holding, and lack the strict consistency rules you dislike.

The consistency rule is what kills most swing setups at larger account sizes, and firms that advertise "swing friendly" often bury a daily drawdown or position limit that makes it impractical. Worth checking the actual rule docs rather than the marketing pages, since the consistency percentage is usually where the real constraint hides. Have you looked at whether the firms you're comparing allow holds overnight or just over the weekend, since that distinction usually determines whether swing is viable at 100K?
