A strategy that is profitable on a personal account is not automatically profitable on a funded one. The imposed drawdown, the daily limit and the consistency rule change the geometry of risk, and a perfectly viable method can become unusable under those constraints.
The articles in this category start from that mismatch: which trading style survives which kind of rulebook, how to size positions when the floor rises at every new high, and which firms suit scalping, swing trading or algorithmic work.
None of these articles offers signals or a system. They deal with the fit between a method and a contract.
