LifeUpTrading is Korea’s first prop trading-style platform that provides futures trading and education services to help traders minimize risk and maximize profits. Additionally, we conduct AI-based trading strategy research by studying and processing data generated during the trading process. 

Users can purchase a challenge account through the dashboard. The challenge account fee varies depending on the account type and size. For example, a $50,000 Basic Plan account costs $75, and a $150,000 Expert Plan account costs $305. Once the challenge account is issued, users can start trading through the NinjaTrader platform. 

By achieving the target profit with the challenge account, users can receive a reward account. The reward account automatically shares trading data with LifeUp, and users can apply for rewards for providing data. For detailed criteria regarding reward payments, please refer to the Reward Account Benefits and Application section.

Understanding the LifeUp Prop Trading Service

1. Traditional Prop Trading vs. LifeUp Prop Trading

Prop trading traditionally involves financial firms using their own capital to trade and generate profits.

They hire skilled traders to manage these funds and often share a portion of the profits as performance bonuses.

LifeUp offers a similar structure, providing traders with a trading environment and a reward system. However, there are key differences:

  • Simplified onboarding: Instead of a rigorous hiring process, LifeUp uses a simple trading test.
  • Flexible working: Traders can work from anywhere at any time.
  • Data-based rewards: Traders are compensated for sharing their trading data, rather than a portion of their profits.

Not only does LifeUp eliminate the need for large deposits and investments, unlike traditional brokerages, but it also operates within legal boundaries, avoiding the risks associated with illegal rental accounts.

Traders simply pay a test fee to participate.
How does this system work?

2. Understanding the LifeUpTrading Service 

​After paying a test fee, you'll receive a Tradovate/NinjaTrader account to start the challenge. Upon successfully meeting the target profit, you become a rewardable trader. Your trades are automatically shared with LifeUp, and you can request compensation for providing this data. This data is used to develop AI-driven trading systems.

LifeUp benefits from identifying skilled traders and acquiring valuable data, while traders can earn rewards based on their trading data. By utilizing AI and financial engineering, LifeUp offers a next-generation trading system that provides an alternative to traditional prop trading, brokerage firms, and illegal rental accounts, creating a win-win situation for both traders and the platform.
