Wall Street Trader Alexander Gerchik Jumps into Prop Trading with New Platform

Gerchik & Co, an international brokerage company managed by WallStreet trader Alexander Gerchik, has introduced a new prop trading program
for traders. This program allows participants to manage up to $100,000 in
company funds, providing a means to trade without using personal capital.

Under the program, traders can access capital ranging from
$5,000 to $100,000. In exchange , they retain 80% of the profits they generate.
To qualify, candidates first complete a demo account challenge, which
assesses their ability to manage risk and grow funds before being given real
capital.

The Prop Trader Challenge

To become a prop trader, candidates must pass a two-stage
challenge. The challenge evaluates their trading skills, specifically their
ability to grow demo capital to a target amount without significant losses.

Participants have up to one year to complete both stages of
the challenge, although they can finish in one week. Entry costs
$69, and candidates can take up to three challenges simultaneously. Success in
the challenge can lead to managing up to $100,000.

No Limits on Attempts

Gerchik & Co offers unlimited attempts for the prop
trader challenge. If candidates do not succeed on their first attempt, they may
re-enter as many times as needed to join the program.

This initiative provides a chance for traders to advance
their experience and earnings without risking their own funds while retaining a
substantial portion of their profits.

Brokers Embrace Prop Trading

OANDA has launched its Prop
Trader program in South Africa
, allowing traders to become signal providers
and earn up to 90% of their profits on a profit-sharing basis, as reported by Finance
Magnates
. Prop trading is gaining traction, with other brokers like Axi
and Hantec Markets also entering the field
, typically through offshore
regulated entities.

Proprietary trading is rising in popularity but remains
challenging. A recent
PipFarm poll of 459 respondents shows
that while interest is high, only 40%
achieve significant financial success in the competitive prop trading
landscape.
