Independent futures prop firm comparisons with transparent scoring and evidence-based reviews.
We help traders make informed choices by clearly explaining rules, payout access, total cost to operate, platform quality, and overall transparency. Our work is independent and evidence-based.
Futures prop trading has grown fast, but policies and costs vary widely. We organize the details and highlight material differences so traders can choose firms with clearer terms and transparent policies.
Our team includes experienced traders, analysts, and researchers. We document sources, verify claims when possible, and update our pages as firms change rules or pricing.
We are not affiliated with the firms we cover. Our editorial decisions prioritize clarity and trader understanding.
Sources, assumptions, and changes are documented so traders can review how we reached our summary.
We validate key items against official docs or direct confirmations where possible, and we correct mistakes promptly.
We write for traders. Plain-language summaries always come first, with deeper details one click away.
Policies change. We monitor and refresh pages, and we surface material updates in firm overviews.
We review published policies and verify key details directly with firms when possible. Scores reflect: rule clarity, payout access, total cost to operate, platform quality, and overall transparency.
Daily loss or consistency requirements, minimum days, trailing vs. EOD drawdown, and payout cadence.
First-payout timing, frequency (weekly/bi-weekly), payout caps/consistency rules, and method options.
One-time vs. monthly fees, resets, data/platform costs, and typical out-of-pocket to reach payout.
Connectivity (Rithmic/Quantower/NinjaTrader), stability, available markets, and execution experience.
Policy visibility, change logs, refund language, and how clearly firms state material limits (e.g., news trading, consistency, profit distribution rules).
We do not accept payment for positive reviews or to remove negative details. Our goal is to summarize policies accurately so traders can compare firms on the facts.
