What Sets Us Apart

We're Not a Prop Firm

IFT is an institutional-grade trader incubator backed by a regulated hedge fund. We develop professional traders through structured evaluation and progressive capital scaling.

Hedge Fund Backing

Backed by Zentra Capital, an ASIC-regulated hedge fund. Your capital comes from a legitimate financial institution, not challenge fee revenue.

First-Loss Capital Model

We provide genuine first-loss capital. Your deposit protects our allocation, but you trade real, allocated funds with institutional-grade risk management.

Aligned Incentives

Our model is transparent: we succeed when you succeed. Prop firms often profit from failures (challenge fees). We only profit from your trading performance.

Real Capital from Day One

No demo accounts, no simulated trading. From Stage 1, you're trading real allocated capital backed by institutional infrastructure.

Simple, Clear Rules

10% static drawdown. That's it. No daily limits, no trailing drawdowns, no time restrictions. Trade with the freedom of a professional.

Path to $1M+

Scale from a single deposit to $1M in allocated capital. No additional purchases needed. Just consistent trading performance.

Institutional Backing
