Trade The Pool is a highly-rated prop firm built for stock traders (trust 96, 4.8★), from the established The5ers team (founded 2022, Israel), on MT5 with a 70% split from $59. Its drawdown is non-standard: the max loss is 3× your daily loss limit and rolls up as you bank profit (a profit-lock), capping at your tier balance — not a static or standard-% line, so read it carefully. Code OC4 takes 10% off plus a free second-chance account on the 5K and 25K Day Trade Flex accounts. Compare the plans below and confirm the live rules before buying.
