About CobraSight

We exist to bring rigour, transparency, and independent analysis to an industry that has grown faster than the data covering it.

Our story

CobraSight was founded in 2024 by a small team of former Wall Street analysts who recognized the rapid growth of the retail prop firm industry. When they could not find reliable, independent research on the funded-trader market, they launched an internal newsletter that has since become a reference research provider for the sector, used by founders, investors, regulators, and the press.

Independent, enterprise-grade research done right.

Principles

  • Independence
    We are not a commissions based operation thus our research is independent and free from bias.
  • Primary research
    Every number we publish is sourced and cited then triangulated against multiple inputs.
  • Plain language
    We write for decision-makers, not for the academy.
  • Coverage breadth
    180+ operators across 42 jurisdictions, refreshed continuously.
