Prop firm questions
What is a futures prop firm?+
A proprietary trading firm sells you an evaluation. Pass it by hitting a profit target without breaking the drawdown rules, and you trade a funded account where you keep most of the profits: usually 80-90%, and some firms pay 100% of your first $10K-$25K.
What's the difference between EOD and intraday trailing drawdown?+
End-of-day (EOD) trailing drawdown only moves at the market close, so a trade that dips during the day can't fail your account as long as you finish above the limit. Intraday trailing moves with every new high in real time, which makes it far stricter. Every firm in our table that lists a drawdown type uses EOD.
What is a consistency rule?+
It caps how much of your total profit can come from a single day, typically 40-50%. Some firms only apply it during the evaluation, others only once you're funded. The funded rule matters most because it decides when you can request a payout.
Do all prop firms have a daily loss limit?+
No. In our comparison, 5 of the 8 firms have no daily loss limit on the plan shown. Apex and Alpha Futures cap daily losses at $500 on a 25K account, and Tradeify's Growth plan caps them at $600.
What is an activation fee?+
A one-off fee some firms charge to turn on your funded account after you pass. Several firms in our table charge none. Apex charges a $99 PA fee, and TakeProfitTrader charges $130 unless a promo code waives it.
How fast do prop firms pay out?+
It varies a lot. FFF pays in about 24 hours via Rise. FundedNext Rapid allows a payout every 3 days, and TakeProfitTrader PRO allows daily withdrawals once the buffer is built. Check each firm's payout cycle and minimum before you choose.
Is FirdNation independent?+
Yes. We compare firms on their published rules, and Marc trades funded accounts at FFF and Apex himself. Some links are affiliate links that may earn us a commission at no cost to you. That never changes what the table shows.
How current is the data?+
Rules were last compiled in June 2026 and are being re-verified now. Cells marked "Verify" are still being checked. Prop firms change their rules often, so always confirm on the firm's own site before you buy.
