Trade The Pool is a stock trading prop firm. It was built by Gil Ben Hur, who also founded The5ers, a well known forex prop firm, and the two brands share the same Five Percent group. Traders pick an account size up to $200,000, pass an evaluation, then trade company money in a simulated setup.
The brand is owned by Five Percent Online Ltd, a company confirmed active on Companies House in London under number 12553363. A second Five Percent Online Ltd entity is registered in Israel under number 515864007, where much of the team is based.
The firm's own website states plainly that it is a proprietary trading firm, not a custodian, exchange, or regulated financial institution, and that all trading in its Hub uses simulated funds rather than real money. Trustpilot reviews are strong, generally above 4 stars, and the firm has run since 2016 without a major public scandal found in this research.
