Real talk

What traders actually experience beyond the marketing copy.

Overall

Most plan variety. Static drawdown is unique and valuable. Fast Track at $75 is cheapest entry anywhere. But: $87/mo funded fee, 10-second hold time, $25K total sim cap, and the complexity of 6 plan types can be confusing.

Drawdown reality

6 plan types give real flexibility. Static drawdown (floor never moves) is genuinely unique. 1-Step intraday trailing is harsh. EOD is more forgiving but adds DLL. Safety Net locks drawdown once you profit enough.

Payout reality

100% on first $12.5K is generous. But $87/mo funded fee eats into profits. $25K total sim cap means you transition to live ($2K-$5K starting capital) relatively quickly. 10-second hold rule is enforced.

Watch out for

$87/mo funded fee (one of few firms charging monthly). 10-second minimum hold on ALL trades. $25K total sim payout cap. Fast Track has NO resets and 14-day time limit. After 20% profit growth, losing 35% triggers disqualification.

Overall

$26/mo Entry is the cheapest way to try prop trading. $77 Express is great value for 14-day challenge. But: unrealized-P&L trailing drawdown, 30% consistency, $88/mo funded fee, 30-day first payout wait, and monthly payouts make funded accounts frustrating.

Drawdown reality

Trailing drawdown follows UNREALIZED P&L in real-time. If your trade goes +$600 unrealized then you close at +$100, the floor already moved up $600. This is worse than EOD trailing. Locks at starting balance + $100.

Payout reality

100% first $12.5K then 90/10 is good. But $88/mo funded fee, 30-day wait for first payout, and monthly payout schedule (last Saturday) make it the slowest payout firm in the industry.

Watch out for

Drawdown trails UNREALIZED P&L (worst drawdown type). $88/mo funded fee. 30% consistency (tight). 30 traded days before first payout. Monthly payouts only (slowest). Automated trading PROHIBITED. 5% flipping rule.
