Real talk
What traders actually experience beyond the marketing copy.
Good for automation/bot traders (allowed on all accounts). 91% off promos make it dirt cheap. Two option types give flexibility. But: copy trading prohibited, high activation fees, no resets, monthly pricing is expensive without promos.
Option 1 and 2 have SAME dollar drawdown but completely different mechanics. Opt1 intraday trailing = floor moves up with unrealized P&L tick by tick. Opt2 EOD trailing = only updates at session close. Know which you're buying.
100% on first $10K is competitive. First 3 payouts are capped ($1K-$2.5K). After 3rd payout: unlimited. $78 mid-cycle reset available. Free reset on billing renewal date. Activation fees are high ($98-$898).
Copy trading PROHIBITED. No resets. High activation fees ($98-$898). Opt1 intraday trailing is unforgiving. Monthly pricing is expensive without promos. Max 11 active funded accounts.
Reliable, no-drama firm. 100% first $10K, no monthly fees, no activation fee. But: strictest consistency in the industry, Rithmic only (no Tradovate), 10-sec hold, no trading 3:15-5 PM CT, news restricted on funded.
Trailing drawdown that locks at starting balance is good. No DLL is a plus. But drawdown is only 3.5% on $100K ($3,500) - tighter than many competitors.
100% on first $10K is solid. No monthly funded fees. Weekly payouts. $0 activation. But the strict consistency rule means many traders can't get funded despite hitting the profit target.
Strictest consistency rule in the industry. Rithmic only - no Tradovate. News restricted on funded (1 min buffer). No trading 3:15-5 PM CT. 10-second minimum hold. Must maintain 50% of eval volume weekly when funded.
