Tom Nakamura

Prop & Copy Trading Analyst

Active prop trader since 2021. Manages $400,000+ in funded capital across multiple programs simultaneously.

"I'm not here to review prop firms as an outsider. I run funded accounts right now, across multiple firms. When I write about payout delays or rule changes, it's because I've lived through them with real capital on the line."

Expertise

▸ Payout reliability: verified real payouts, delay patterns, dispute outcomes
▸ Rule transparency: drawdown limits, consistency rules, scaling plans
▸ Firm risk: 12-month rolling data on rule changes and withdrawal freezes
▸ Copy trading: signal provider vetting, slippage in live conditions

Methodology

Holds active accounts at multiple prop firms simultaneously. Tracks payout data across 90-day rolling windows cross-referenced with community dispute reports and firm communication history.

Disclosure

Tom may hold affiliate relationships with some reviewed firms (disclosed per article).
