COMPARE FUTURES
PROP FIRMS

FundedNext Futures (FNF) benefits from the reputation of its already established forex division (FundedNext), and traders generally appreciate the straightforward evaluation and consistent payout cycles. FNF was one of the first to introduce no time limits on evaluations. On the downside, they have changed the profit split from 90% to 80% recently. The futures offering is still relatively new, leading to some caution among experienced traders. But FNF is still a good choice in our book.

TradeDay is praised for its educational support and unique coaching model, which sets it apart from most competitors. Traders appreciate the fast payout processing and flexible drawdown options. Intraday Trailing Drawdown is

TakeProfit Trader (TPT) is well regarded for its ability to provide profits from day one, which is a major attraction for many traders. Reviews frequently praise the platform variety, simpler rules and smooth payout process. However, similar to MyFundedFutures' (MFF) Rapid Account, the funded account has Intraday Trailing Drawdown, which can catch newer traders off guard. Due to the Intraday Drawdown, we only recommend TPT to the experienced traders looking to add more accounts to their arsenal. New traders should focus on our top firm suggestions with EOD Drawdown offerings.

E8 Markets has a solid reputation as a multi-asset firm, with traders appreciating its flexibility and customizable evaluation models. 1-day pass can be a plus for users. However, 7 day inactivity rule is a bit harsh on Eval.

Topstep is one of the oldest and most established prop firms, and many traders value its educational ecosystem and long track record. However, their poor response to the platform outages in Oct. 2025 were met with customer dissatisfaction. The mass flagging of customers for hedging in Dec. 2025 might have been the final nail in the coffin. Their Trustpilot rating has declined drastically since then, with users frequently citing rule changes, higher costs, unfair account flagging and dissatisfaction with the transition to the Project X platform. There was a recent price decrease but it did not last long. Where we used to have only 1 rule (Their Tagline: 1 Step, 1 Rule), now we have several rules (consistency rules, payout cap and smaller live capital when moving to live). When you pair that with only 1 trading platform offering, it prevents us from recommending TopStep as the user's First Choice. While still trusted historically, current feedback is more mixed compared to newer competitors. It is going to take a long time to earn the reputation that TopStep used to have.
