Best prop firms for crypto traders in Australia
Crypto traders need weekend holding, news allowance, and broad asset coverage. Ranked by weekend + news + trust. All 5 firms in our directory accept Australia residents.
Australian traders have native access to every prop firm. The 2024 ASIC rule changes restricted retail FX leverage for personal accounts, but prop trading is structurally different and unaffected. The challenge is timing — the NY session ends at Sydney sunrise, so US-session traders work nights.
Futures prop incumbent. Trading Combine on TopstepX. Long track record. Strict loss-limit rules.
Active US-facing futures prop firm. Multiple paths including Advanced (evaluation) and Lightning/Straight to Sim Funded (instant) plans. End-of-day trailing drawdown per its help center; exact figures vary by plan, so confirm the account type before paying.
Futures-focused prop firm (Lucid Trading Group) with several evaluation and funded paths. Public docs advertise a 90/10 profit split with plan-specific payout requirements. Treat this as the specific 'Lucid Trading' entity — several similarly named firms exist.
Futures-focused prop firm that publishes a detailed public rulebook. NAME CONFLICT: this is distinct from 'The Next Gen Funding' — confirm you are on nexgenprotraderfunding.com. Rule-heavy programme with end-of-day style drawdown.
Newer firm advertising stocks, futures and options access, with an instant-funding model (advertised 80/20 split, end-of-day trailing drawdown, consistency caps and safety thresholds). Public reputation is mixed and harder to verify — treat with higher caution and confirm all terms first.
