Willis capital is the best prop firm…

Willis capital is the best prop firm out there. In a world full of scammers, Willis capital has proven to be authentic and legit. I have received my payouts in a timely manner. Also, the team is top notch in helping with any issues or errors. I would recommend to any trader lacking capital. The rules are reasonable as it is designed to keep the impulsive gamblers away.

Willis Capital is a scam due to drawdown hidden rules

Willis Capital is a scam & deceptive prop firm because they have a hidden rule regarding daily and maximum drawdown calculation.
Once you enter a trade, the daily and maximum drawdown starts accumulating from any negative during the trade even if the trade eventually became profitable.

What kind of a evil hidden rule is that, dapo William is such a liar. This is design to make it almost impossible to pass the challenge.

I bought the prop account 30th October and have traded for 1 week, with well over 80% win rate, yet my max drawdown way more than my profit, because of their deceptive hidden drawdown rule.

I'm sure all the positive reviews about this company is fake, TRUSTPILOT why allow it? Because so many clients are also complaining.

Their customised trading platform is also rubbish, makes the trading experience horrible for no reason.

Nothing Good about this propfirm, don't waste your money, they are liars

Hi Grateful,

We understand that traders can get frustrated when disappointed. However, it would be wrong to make false claims about our program or the firm.
Our drawdowns are clearly stated in various pages on our website. On our YouTube channel, we have also painstakingly created detailed videos to help explain our drawdown rules in much simpler terms. These videos were created months ago (lest you say we only created them after your review).

With regards to our customized trading platform, we have received and continue to receive positive responses from other traders who ABSOLUTELY love the features we've worked hard to embed. Of course, what is good for the goose may not be good for the gander, and so, it is possible that some people may not find the platform as appealing as others. Yet this does not mean that you should demean or nullify the opinions of these other traders and term them as 'fake' or 'false'.

We'll continue to do our utmost to make "skilled and profitable" traders even more profitable.

We wish you all the best!

Sincerely,since the lunching of the app…

Sincerely,since the lunching of the app and no longer Mt4 been used,it’s been terrible. I don’t know if the broker is also affecting the trades but I think Mt4 was much better than the app. There are other good prop firms who uses mt4 with a one time challenge who also splits profits and are good.Would be trying others out. Also it’s hard to log into your account on two seperate devices. For example,I have a phone whose IP address Is Nigeria and the other abroad, if you log in on both phones,your account is flagged like you was giving someone else to trade for you. They should work on that. We pay so much to get this prop firms. We even pay commissions on every trade even on the first challenge. I understand you wanna make money but you can do it in a good way. This is my honest review. Willis capital can do better

Hey Shay,

Our Terms and Conditions clearly discusses the issue with multiple IP addresses. The simple solution to this problem would have been to inform our support team of your travel plans. We've had situations where some traders have complained about having their accounts tampered with and our IP clause was designed to avoid such situations.

Regarding our current pausing of MT trades, you'll find a lot of positive reviews about our new platform. We encourage you to give it a try!

This has been the worst pro firm I have…

This has been the worst pro firm I have ever used in recent years. Their main tactics to make you lose are the spreads. Never trust a company like this, as it has resulted in me losing a lot of money. I have found light with BestTrading llc and never had to be sad over losses anymore.

Hi Mike,

We're surprised that you've complained about spreads being too high. Any experienced trader knows that they are to expect high spreads when no commissions are charged on the trades (it's very basic in the forex industry). Still, we've done our best to make sure that the spreads were not too high.

However, you can now try out our all new trading platform with very low spreads and see your losses turn to profit!

Worse Prop firm ever

Worse Prop firm ever , they will let u pass the first challenge and then second obviously a fail. Daily drawdown and account drawdown is same .70/30 profit while others do 90/10. Don’t try Willis capital unless u just to be wasting ur money

Hey there,

We understand the disappointment that comes with failed expectations. Our 70/30 profit split has always existed long before we started accepting traders and we're 100% sure you knew about it even before you enrolled for an account. The drawdown rules are clearly stated on multiple pages of our website.
Your claim that we fail people at the second phase is also unfounded, as there have been many people who have not only passed that phase but have gone on to the Live phase and even made withdrawals.
Our humble suggestion would be for you to review your trades, recognize and accept your mistakes, and then figure out to be better and even more profitable.
Our goal is to see all traders succeed, including you!

STARTRADER is killings with spread

STARTRADER is killings with spread. They use massive spread against us. STARTRADER is not a good trader as professed. They are their to make us fail and loss our account. They are against us and not with us. Please WillisCapital you said you are here to make us win yet you gave us a very bad broker that is stifling us and choking us with spread. We loose more when loosing and profit less when profiting. Very terrible broker experience. It will be surely hard to pass prop firm with this type of broker. They are after our downfall not our progress to rip us off. It’s not easy paying that much to buy an account and yet use your broker to rip us off. STARTRADER you have zero rating. Simple.

Hi Kelechi,

Well, that was because you didn't pay any commissions on trades placed. You should check out our all new trading platform with surprisingly low spreads.
We're sure you'll love it!

Unreliable Prop firm.

I had so much confidence in Dapo Willis and his prop firm and thought they really had traders' interests at heart. Unfortunately, they are only after your challenge fee. I purchased a 50k challenge and I passed both phases of the evaluation but was denied a funded account based on hedging and inconsistent trading. I never hedged, and the inconsistent lot happened because I was testing my EA to be sure it was properly sending trades over to the account. Even if their claim is true, they should have either given me a fresh, free challenge or refunded my fee. When they see this review, they will attack it and the person giving the review rather than working to resolve the issues. They didn't even ask me for an explanation of what happened or about my trading system. They just refused to issue me a funded account. I advise everyone to stay away from this prop firm. If you go ahead, there is no guarantee that they will give you a funded account even after passing it. They will come up with all types of excuses not to issue you the account.

Hey there,

We understand your disappointment but it looks like you sadly may have missed out on reading our Terms and Conditions as they clearly state our stance on both hedging and the use of EAs. It is important to note that Willis Capital will not deny any trader their funded accounts if they did not breach the terms of engagement.

I love this challenge is not for…

I love this challenge is not for babies, if you know what you are doing in the market then this challenge should not be a problem to you, if 500$ is the maximum risk for stage one then calculate your percentage in 500 dollars not the 10,000$ if not you will lose the account, remember risk 1% to earn 3% if you are not 100% sure of the market, if you really know what you are doing 1% to 3% is enough, if you are very good then go for 1% to 6%

Even before the Willis Capital

Even before the Willis Capital, and to talk f the Willis capital launching, have been a trader, a trader with one direction... Been many Ups and Downs, thick and thin... Almost feel like giving up, until I met a great Man called Dapo Willis, he changed my trading life through the TDA, he gave me another site of Trading.. am so much indebted to have him,.... The good news is that he completely changed my perspective towards the market ND gave me another path entirely in the forex journey, also launching the Willis capital is going to be a great financial breakthrough for me...... The Willis Capital keeps motivating me that I also can be one of them for the fact that I don't even have a $ now to purchase...... But trust me, Willis Capital is the Best cus I have a testimony concerning it.....

Willis capital to the Moon...
God bless Dapo willi's..

daps you are not in this industry to help


daps is a funny man
your trading environment is not condusive ....
stop saying you gat yr mastery student at heart
when you take money from yr investors do they tell you to get a 15% target
what do you tell them as a monthly return
50% right with a drawdown of 20%
thats whats reffered as a condusive environment
while will other profirms be doing a 13% profit target and you our mentor that wanna help us will be asking for a 15%..mr daps there is something fishy
if you really wanna help the industry draw down of 10% and profit target of 6--7% overall..youre not gonna die ...
in this way yr student can pass yr challenge within a month and withdraw atleast 30-40%....but you dont want it that way....you wanna really feed up from people subscription money ....without stressing their life up ...atleast the can be risking 1.5%

The program has been curated to get the very best. In the first phase we test the trading strategy of the trader, and as such we want them to make a profit target of 5% with a max overall drawdown of 5%. Any trader who can not produce a 1:1 risk to reward is not worthy to be a part of Dapo Willis fund management.
The phase 2 was curated to test the risk management technique, after proving that the traders strategy works, and as such, you are required to work within the risk parameter of 10% max drawdown and 10% target, same 1:1 Risk to Reward.
Willis capital is looking for only serious traders and not gamblers.
We offer real money with reputable broker. Thanks for your review though. Cheers

A Testimony of Gratitude

It is paramount that I begin with gratitude even though I'm yet to save enough to purchase a prop account but I am working miracles on my demo and all gratitude to Dapo Willis for revolutionizing my trading mentality through his remarkable maters class videos. Regardless of my current financial status I am a wealthy young man and I am hopeful.. I believe is the Willis dream and I trust my dream. Thank you Dapo!!

I was not allowed to join (Barbados citizen)

I like Dapo & his vision. I have no issue with him except when I signed up to join I was rejected as my country Barbados seems to be a restricted country. I was one of the first people to buy both of his courses & also be on his youtube channel. Is this for Nigerians only? Please let me know asap. Keep up the good work Dapo.
