Real talk
What traders actually experience beyond the marketing copy.
Most restrictive firm overall. 80/20 split, $4K withdrawal cap, 30% consistency on eval, 2.2% daily loss limit, copy/automation prohibited. But: TCP free monthly resets and scaling to $400K are genuinely unique. Widest platform support. Very reputable.
EOD trailing on eval/LiveSim is fair. But Live funded switches to intraday trailing. Most traders stay on LiveSim to avoid this.
80/20 split is the worst in the industry. $4K max per withdrawal on LiveSim. Email-based process feels outdated. Live account data fees ~$140/mo per exchange make live transition expensive.
80/20 split (worst in industry). $4K max withdrawal. Copy trading PROHIBITED. Automation PROHIBITED. 2.2% daily loss limit. Live account data fees ~$140/mo. Email-based payout process.
Strong newer firm. 6 plan types give lots of flexibility. Elite Daily with no funded consistency is great. S2F PRO copy trading (5 accounts) is most generous in industry. Same-day payouts. But: daily loss limits on everything, 10-sec hold minimum, payout split drops to 80/20.
Most plans use EOD trailing (favorable). S2F PRO uses INTRADAY trailing (much harsher). EOD locks at starting + $100 once reached.
Same-day payouts via Rise. Tiered profit targets get easier (6% first, then 5%, then 4%). Split drops from 90/10 to 80/20 after $10K cumulative. S2F PRO allows copy trading across 5 accounts.
Overnight holding NOT allowed on any account. Daily loss limits on all plans. 10-second minimum hold. Payout split drops to 80/20 after $10K cumulative. Automated trading prohibited. 14-day inactivity = account terminated.
