FTMO’s new Instant account has some of the best instant funding rules on the market, with a 10% max loss, a 30% consistency rule and balance-based trailing. But at about $1,676 for a $50,000 account, it costs nearly 4.5 times Tradeify FX’s Direct account with code TPJ.
Most prop firms never say how many traders pass. We checked 50 and found every official pass rate, from Topstep’s 16.8% to Take Profit Trader’s 36.22%, then followed the numbers through to the traders who actually get paid.
Topstep’s No Activation Fee path costs more per month but skips the $149 fee. We work out exactly when each path is cheaper at $50K, $100K and $150K.
My Funded Futures Rapid and Rapid EOD cost the same, but the rules differ significantly. Rapid has the easier evaluation, while Rapid EOD is much easier once funded.
