Seacrest Markets and Seacrest Funded are coming together to form a single firm under the name of Seacrest Markets.
Through this merger, we’re combining the innovation and agility of prop trading with the transparency and compliance of CFD brokering. This creates an entity that serves traders at all stages of their careers—whether they are aspiring professionals looking to access a funded account or experienced traders already operating across multiple asset classes.
This strategic move fulfills our vision of blending innovation with security, creating an ecosystem where traders globally can thrive.
The Story Behind the Merger
Prior to the merger, both entities had already carved out strong reputations in the financial trading world.
Seacrest Funded (formerly MyFundedFX)
Operating since 2022 as a premier prop trading firm, it established itself as a pioneer of community-based prop trading, building a stellar track record for fairness and transparency.
Seacrest Markets (Pre-Merger)
An FSCA-licensed CFD broker offering access to multiple asset classes, advanced trading platforms, and deep liquidity infrastructure. The firm brings a reputation for regulatory compliance.
The merger under the Seacrest Markets banner unites these strengths: the community-driven approach of Seacrest Funded and the unparalleled infrastructure, regulatory oversight, and market access of Seacrest Markets.
CEO Vision
“Our vision is to combine prop trading expertise with regulated brokerage standards to give traders a secure, transparent, and growth-focused platform.”

Understanding CFD Trading
Contracts for Difference (CFD) trading allows traders to speculate on price movements of financial assets without owning the underlying asset. Traders enter into a contract reflecting the difference between the asset’s opening and closing prices.
This mechanism enables profit from both rising and falling markets without the capital requirement of purchasing the actual asset.
Seacrest Markets is a fully regulated FSCA broker offering diverse asset classes:
- Forex: 50+ major, minor, and exotic currency pairs.
- Indices: US30, NAS100, SPX500, GER40, UK100, JP225.
- Commodities: Gold, Silver, Crude Oil, Natural Gas.
- Crypto: BTC, ETH, XRP, LTC, ADA (vs USD).
- Stocks: Selected U.S. equities via CFDs.
Proprietary Trading Explained
Prop trading involves trading with firm capital rather than personal funds. Seacrest Funded provides simulated capital, allowing traders to demonstrate their skills in a structured evaluation program focusing on consistency and risk management.
Qualified traders access a live account to trade real funds and earn a profit share.
