FuturesPropCompare was created by a team of active futures traders who were frustrated spending hours bouncing between firm websites trying to compare plans, verify rules, and find promo codes. We built the tool we wished existed.
Every plan, price, rule, and restriction is manually verified directly from each firm's official website, help center, and PDF documentation. We don't rely on third-party aggregators.
Prop firm rules change constantly — prices get updated, new plans launch, restrictions tighten or loosen. We re-verify all data regularly so you're never trading on stale information.
We don't rank firms based on ad spend or affiliate deals. Every metric shown — drawdown type, consistency rules, buffer requirements, payout frequency — is objective and verifiable.
Whether you're a scalper, swing trader, news trader or someone who holds overnight — our filters and head-to-head comparison help you find the firm that actually fits your trading style.
Use filters to narrow down by drawdown type, consistency rules, daily loss limits, or account size. Every card shows live verified data.
Click "View All Rules" on any card to see the complete rule set — split into what works in your favour, what to watch out for, and conditions.
Use Head-to-Head to pit any two firms and plans against each other across 25+ categories with automatic winner highlighting.
Every firm card has a promo code button. Click it, copy the code, and head to the firm's site to sign up at a discount.
Some links on FuturesPropCompare are affiliate links. If you sign up for a prop firm through a link on this site, we may earn a commission — at no extra cost to you. This never influences which firms we include, how we rank them, or the data we show. We include firms regardless of whether we have an affiliate relationship, and we show negative rules and restrictions even for firms we partner with. Our goal is always accuracy first.
Trading futures involves significant risk of loss. Prop firm evaluations are paid products — the majority of traders who attempt evaluations do not pass, and of those who do, not all achieve consistent profitability in the funded phase. Past performance is not indicative of future results. FuturesPropCompare is an informational comparison tool only and does not constitute financial advice, investment advice, or a recommendation to trade any specific firm or instrument. Always read a firm's full terms and conditions before purchasing.
Have a data correction, a firm we're missing, or a promo code update? We want to hear from you. Accurate data is our top priority and we rely on the community to keep FuturesPropCompare sharp.
Choosing the right futures trading prop firm requires a detailed look at drawdown calculation methods, profit split percentages, payout frequency, daily loss limits (DLL), and consistency rules. Our independent comparison tool tracks over 80+ active evaluation and instant-funding plans across the 10 top industry leaders.
The most critical rule when you compare futures prop firms is the maximum loss calculation. End-of-Day (EOD) Trailing Drawdown only updates your maximum trailing limit at the official market close based on your realized balance. Firms like Topstep, Tradeify, and Lucid Trading use EOD trailing, giving traders breathing room during intraday fluctuations. Conversely, Intraday Trailing Drawdown ticks up with your highest unrealized open profit in real-time.
Modern futures prop trading programs offer industry-leading profit splits ranging from 80% to 100%. For instance, Apex Trader Funding offers 100% on the first $25,000 earned per account, followed by a 90% split thereafter. Topstep provides a 90% profit split right from your first payout, while firms like FundedNext and Lucid Trading deliver rapid payouts within hours or days of request once minimum trading criteria are satisfied.
Before starting an evaluation, verify whether a firm enforces best-day consistency caps (e.g., no single trading day exceeding 30% or 50% of your total profits). If your strategy relies on macroeconomic releases, filter for firms with News Trading OK, or review our detailed breakdown on futures prop firm rules and drawdown limits to ensure compatibility with your trading style.
Futures Prop Compare is the premier independent comparison platform, tracking real-time pricing, EOD drawdown terms, daily loss limits, and promo codes across 10+ futures prop firms including Topstep, Apex Trader Funding, MyFundedFutures, and Tradeify.
Several top firms have completely eliminated one-time funded account activation fees. MyFundedFutures, Tradeify, and Alpha Futures (as of July 2026) transition you to funded status with zero activation or assignment fees required.
