The5ers

The5ers (The 5%ers) is a privately held proprietary trading firm founded in 2016 by Gil Ben Hur and Snir Mor. The company operates from Israel and provides funded trading accounts to retail foreign exchange (forex) traders. Detailed public financial data and precise employee headcounts are not publicly disclosed.

The company evaluates retail traders through a structured funding program. Traders participate in an evaluation phase with specific profit targets and drawdown rules; those who pass receive a funded account to trade the firm's capital. Profits generated on these funded accounts are split between the trader and The5ers. The platform focuses primarily on forex, metals, and indices.

The5ers operates in the retail prop trading sector, directly competing with firms like FTMO and Topstep. Following regulatory actions by US authorities against several competitors in the prop firm space (such as the CFTC's action against MyForexFunds), The5ers has maintained its operations, though specific market share metrics remain private.
