The forex CRM provider UpTrader has added support for proprietary trading to its platform to cater to the growing demand for prop trading services. According to the company, this development opens up a new avenue for brokers to enhance their trading capabilities and expand their revenue streams.

Proprietary trading significantly differs from retail trading. Unlike retail traders, who trade with personal funds, prop traders utilize the firm's capital. Traders, often contracted rather than employed, execute trades following the firm's strategies and risk management protocols.

UpTrader's Prop Trading Integration

UpTrader's CRM ecosystem now supports Prop Trading with the integration of MetaTrader, cTrader, and dxTrade platforms. This integration aims to simplify the process of establishing or integrating prop firms. With UpTrader's support, brokers can optimize their operations and capitalize on the advantages of Prop Trading, the company mentioned.

With over a decade of experience, UpTrader offers CRM solutions for the forex market and specializes in cloud-based solutions. The firm offers a suite of services, including white labels, liquidity solutions, and copy trading platforms.

Vasily Alexeev, the CEO of UpTrader, mentioned: "In 2022, when prop firms began to emerge, they didn't seem to me like they would have a long lifespan. However, now in 2024, we can all see that prop trading is thriving."

"At UpTrader, we are not only creating a fundamental infrastructure for brokers that provides everything required to build a strong business, but we also respond to highly demanded services if we see sustained demand from the market and a promising future perspective. I'm pleased to announce that we have finally launched a Prop Firm Module for our UpTrader CRM."

Expanding Offerings

In January, UpTrader integrated DXtrade into its CRM system to offer brokers flexibility in their trading operations. This integration, announced at the onset of 2024, aims to accommodate diverse business models within the brokerage industry.

Alexeev stated: "At UpTrader, we aim to be as flexible as possible so that brokerages can run their business with us in their own unique way. Adding DXtrade support is a major milestone on our way to allow our clients to work with the tools that are best suited for their business model."

Developed by Devexperts, DXtrade is a multifunctional trading platform tailored for forex, CFD, and crypto brokers. It features frontend and back-office operations, trading journals, performance dashboards, and mobile trading apps.
