Multiple prop firms have publicly spoken out against the arbitrage exploitation of their platforms. Additionally, several groups are offering services that claim to guarantee profits from prop trading activities.

Although such exploitations are known, PipFarm’s CEO, James Glyde, recently pointed to the organised nature of such groups.

“A very important feature of this scheme is the ability to pressure firms into paying out after they are caught to avoid negative publicity and firms find themselves in a lose-lose situation,” Glyde wrote in an X (formerly Twitter) post.

“It makes it incredibly hard for traders to see the truth.”
