PTG Funded is a modern prop trading firm that provides capital to skilled traders through a flexible and fair evaluation model. With a strong focus on transparency, technology and supporting the next generation of traders, PTG aims to bring a more professional and accessible approach to the prop trading space.
We spoke with Nart Gërdovci, Founder and CEO, about the vision behind PTG Funded and the opportunities it offers to traders around the world.
Can you briefly introduce PTG Funded and what you offer to traders?
Nart Gërdovci: PTG Funded is a proprietary trading firm that provides capital to skilled traders in a fair and transparent environment where talent and hard work are truly rewarded. We believe that by democratizing access to trading capital, we’re empowering skilled traders and unlocking opportunities for individuals around the world, regardless of their background or financial status.
Opportunity should be borderless, and everyone deserves a real chance. We believe that capital is not always where the talent is. Our mission is to close that gap in a merit-based way, by putting resources in the hands of traders who’ve earned it through skill and not circumstance.
What makes you stand out from other prop firms in the industry?
Nart Gërdovci: What makes PTG Funded stand out is flexibility, both in how we evaluate traders and how we support them after funding. We don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all model. That’s why our challenges are structured to accommodate different trading styles, trading profiles, and timeframes. We know that every trader’s recipe to success is unique and individual, and our mission is to accommodate as many of those as we can.
Our rules stay fair and consistent, without sudden restrictions and with constant support. The flexibility we offer makes it possible for more traders to thrive and grow with us long term.
What kind of trader profile are you looking to fund?
Nart Gërdovci: PTG Funded takes pride in being the most diverse firm out there. Our vision was to build an infrastructure that is not limited to only one trader profile, but is able to support a variety of trader profiles, giving our traders the freedom that we believe is necessary for performance and success.
Our conditions stimulate smart risk management, consistent trading, and a fair environment, which is a completely opposite approach to the latest trends of gamifying prop trading. We believe that trading is a practice that, when driven by skill, can be a long-term source of income and even a full-time occupation for traders willing to put in the effort.

PTG Funded is also strongly focused on funding a newer generation of traders. That’s why we’re working on the PTG Traders Academy and partnering with other institutions that share the same vision as us in this regard – supporting the new generation of traders through education.
What can traders expect once they pass the evaluation? How do your payouts work?
Nart Gërdovci: After a trader meets our evaluation criteria and successfully passes the evaluation stage, they’re issued a funded account with no extra requirements. From there, they can start trading without any profit targets and are eligible to request a payout from PTG Funded.
Our payouts follow a bi-weekly schedule, meaning traders can request and receive payouts every two weeks.
What’s your vision for PTG Funded in the coming months? Should we expect any new features or updates?
Nart Gërdovci: PTG Funded is a long-term project that was built by a team with innovation and excellence in mind. Business as usual – we’re always focusing on improving trader experience, adding smarter tools, and increasing transparency even further.
We’re also proud to announce that PTG Funded is becoming the first prop firm to introduce hedge-fund grade technology and tools, bringing a completely new perspective to prop trading. Our goal is to empower traders with the same advanced tools used by the world’s top professionals, adapted for simple yet highly effective use. As always, democratizing trading remains our number one priority.
Every trader, no matter their background, will have access to this powerful technology, giving them the edge to trade smarter, faster, with more confidence, and less effort and errors.
PTG Funded’s next chapter is about more than just capital or market share. It’s about innovation, elevating the entire space and further contributing to the success of our traders while being backed by a strong infrastructure.
