Where do these scores come from?
Each score comes from a scale published in the ranking methodology, applied to a public source: regulator lists, company registers, the firm's public pages, Trustpilot, Google, Common Crawl, GDELT, Wikipedia, YouTube. Each criterion shows its source and date above. The ranking cannot be bought: no payment, partnership or promo code enters into a score, and these pages carry no affiliate link. Tradoshi connects the accounts of many prop firms to its trading journal and offers a plan to prop firms: none of this enters into the ranking.
