The article highlights several top Forex proprietary trading firms in Australia, including E8 Funding, Audacity Capital, Blue Guardian, Instant Funding, FTUK, Lark Funding, Ment Funding, Fidelcrest, and FundedNext. These firms provide platforms for traders to leverage substantial amounts of capital with various profit-sharing models and support systems.

Instant Funding, a proprietary trading firm, has announced significant changes to their trading platform for American clients due to a recent decision by their partner broker, ThinkMarkets, to terminate services to US clients. Instant Funding plans to introduce DXtrade, an alternative trading platform, to mitigate potential disruptions. The transition period is expected to last up to three weeks, but efforts are being made to expedite this process. Existing American traders will retain their accounts during the transition. This development is part of a broader trend of restrictions on services to US clients among proprietary trading firms, including Purple Trading, Blackbull, The5ers, FTMO, Blue Guardian, Audacity Capital, and Alpha Capital, amid speculation of pressure from MetaQuotes.

ThinkMarkets will cease to provide services to prop firms' clients in the United States, as requested by Instant Funding’s current trading platform provider. Instant Funding will introduce DXtrade as an alternative trading platform for US traders, with a possible transition period of up to three weeks. Active US traders will receive a free $10 credit to compensate for any downtime.

ThinkMarkets will terminate services to prop trading firms' clients in the US starting February 23. Instant Funding, a prop trading firm, confirmed this decision and advised its clients to close open positions before the deadline. ThinkMarkets will continue offering services outside the US.
