The5%ers has announced Trade Set Go, a new CFD broker built by the team behind the firm, and its headline product is the Superpower account, which is described as multiplying a trader’s own deposit by up to eight times. The launch was set to be presented at a live Discord event at 12:30 GMT on 13 November, with giveaways during the session. It matters because The5%ers is best known for evaluation programs, and a broker where traders deposit their own money is a different business model from a challenge that unlocks a funded account.
What Trade Set Go Is, Based on What Has Been Published
According to reporting by Forex Prop Reviews on the announcement, Trade Set Go is presented as The5%ers’ own broker. The brand positions itself around simple trading rules, transparent conditions and no hidden fees. Those are marketing claims from the firm, and JoinProp has not seen a fee schedule or a client agreement that would let a trader test them.
The5%ers already runs several funding routes, including High Stakes, Bootcamp, Hyper Growth and Pro Growth. All of them follow the familiar prop pattern: a trader meets rules set by the firm and, if successful, trades firm capital. Trade Set Go moves in a different direction. The trader brings a deposit, and the account is built around that deposit rather than around an evaluation fee.
The announcement also names two further account concepts on the broker’s website, Power Up and Hybrid. Power Up is described as built around fixed risk. Hybrid is described as linking trading activity to the chance of earning a funded account with The5%ers. The firm has not, in the material JoinProp reviewed, set out how either one works in practice.
How the Superpower Account Is Described
The Superpower account is the part of the launch that carries the most weight. The reported claim is that a trader can multiply a deposit by up to eight times. In plain terms, a trader who deposits a given amount would be able to trade with exposure up to eight times larger than that amount, though the exact mechanism has not been explained in the coverage JoinProp has read.
That gap matters. A multiplier can be delivered in more than one way. It could be ordinary leverage, it could be a credit line, or it could be a structure with its own loss limits and profit sharing. Each of those carries a different risk profile for the person depositing money. The5%ers has not confirmed, in the material reviewed, which of these applies, whether losses are limited to the deposit, or what happens when an account falls below a threshold.
JoinProp has not calculated any example outcomes here, because the inputs needed for a fair calculation, such as fees, spreads and stop-out levels, have not been published in the sources we saw. Readers should treat the 8x figure as a ceiling that the firm advertises, not as the multiple every trader will receive.
Why a Broker Is Different From a Challenge
In a typical challenge model, the trader pays a one-off fee, trades a simulated or firm-controlled account against rules, and can lose only the fee. A broker account is a different relationship. The trader deposits capital, and that capital is exposed to market losses, spreads, commissions and any financing costs.
Regulation also changes. A prop firm usually describes its service as an educational or evaluation product, while a CFD broker normally operates under a licence in one or more jurisdictions and owes clients specific protections. The coverage JoinProp reviewed does not say which entity operates Trade Set Go, where it is licensed, or which countries it accepts clients from. The5%ers has not confirmed those points in the sources we saw, and they are the first things a prospective client should look for.
For traders who have been through several challenges, the appeal is easy to see. A deposit-based account removes the pass or fail evaluation and the pressure of a time limit. The trade-off is that the money at risk is the trader’s own savings, not a refundable challenge fee. Our guide on regulated versus unregulated prop firms explains the questions worth asking before sending capital to any provider.
The Hybrid Concept and the Link to Funded Accounts
The Hybrid account is the concept most likely to interest existing prop traders, because it is described as connecting trading activity to an opportunity to earn a funded account through The5%ers. If that works as the name suggests, trading performance on a deposit account could become a route into funded capital without a separate challenge.
The unanswered questions are the practical ones. What performance would count? Is there a minimum deposit or a minimum number of trading days? Does the funded account carry the same rules as other The5%ers programs? The firm has not published those details in the material we reviewed, so none of this can be assumed. When the rules appear, comparing them with the existing programs in our comparison of prop firm challenges will show whether Hybrid is cheaper, faster or simply different.
What This Means for the Broader Prop Industry
Trade Set Go points to a pattern that has been building for a while: prop firms looking for revenue that does not depend only on challenge fees. Owning a broker lets a firm earn from trading activity on client deposits, and it can keep traders inside one brand as they move from evaluation to live capital.
For traders, the sensible response is to separate the brand from the product. A firm with a good record on payouts does not automatically run a safe broker. Check the licence, the client money arrangements, the full fee list and the terms of any multiplier before depositing. Our prop firm trust index is a useful starting point for judging the track record of a firm, though a new broker will not yet have a history of its own.
Until The5%ers publishes the account terms, Trade Set Go is an announcement, not a proven product. It will be worth revisiting once the rules, regulation and fees are public.
