Build prop operations around explicit account workflows, platform groups, rules, reporting and technical controls.
Separate challenge, funded and operational account states using clear rules and platform group design.
Risk limits and account state transitions need reliable source-of-truth logic and auditability.
Keep participant onboarding, account state and support operations synchronized with platform actions.
Design infrastructure around peak account counts, reporting load, platform operations and integration throughput.
Explore the supporting implementation and evaluation guides for this architecture.
A prop technology stack combines the trading platform with challenge logic, account provisioning, customer dashboards, risk rules, payments and operational workflows. Those responsibilities should remain clearly separated.
Keep customer commerce outside privileged platform administration.
Use versioned, deterministic calculations.
Make workflows idempotent and auditable.
Preserve evidence for rule outcomes.
Concise answers to the architecture questions that commonly affect scope, cost and implementation.
No. MT5 can provide the trading-platform layer, while challenge rules, customer workflows, provisioning and dashboards commonly require surrounding systems.
Rules should be deterministic, versioned and calculated by one authoritative service so CRM, dashboards and operations do not disagree.
Account provisioning bursts, trade-data synchronization, rule evaluation, dashboards and customer status updates should be tested at expected peaks.

| Area | Proposal should define | Acceptance evidence |
|---|---|---|
| Scope | Included components, exclusions and third-party dependencies | Signed responsibility matrix |
| Integration | Interfaces, credentials, data ownership and error handling | End-to-end UAT results |
| Infrastructure | Hosting, monitoring, backup, recovery and privileged access | Operational readiness checklist |
| Support | Severity model, escalation path and vendor boundaries | Production runbook and contacts |
| Commercial | Setup, recurring, usage and third-party costs | Comparable total-cost model |
