Is it possible to get you mtdna/Ydna haplogroups from the raw data of family finder (like people are doing with Ancestrydna raw data files).
If the answers is yes, can someone explain how?
Thanks.

No, but you can try one of those predictors.

What predictors? Do they work with FTDNA?

It's not going to work. That's why it is better to buy AncestryDNA or even MyHeritage.

That depends on haplogroup, for certain haplogroups it's kinda difficult to find the subclade even on 37 markers, such an example is E-V13. SNP tests are best for subclade finding though STRs are most useful when it comes to finding relations
