A pity that they only allow one account (already have a funded there)

So, in comparing a 2 step forex challenge with a straight to funded futures prop, pretty amazing what a no brainer it is.

Pay $499 for a 100K 2 step offering 10K in DD
Pay $384 for a 150K direct funded futures offering 7500 DD
$$$/DD is close enough to even.
The forex firm and the futures firm both require profit equal to the DD, known as stage 1 in the forex prop and building the buffer in futures.
Here's where the no brainer comes in:
At this point, you can withdrawal 3K from the futures firm, the forex firm you must earn another 50% of DD (5K) to pass stage 2 and then earn a profit on the live account of $3,750 to get paid the same $3K.
Meanwhile, in the futures firm, you may continue to pull 3K every 3K you make.
By the time you pull the first 3K from the forex firm, you've pulled 9K in the futures firm.

Seems like alpha futures also balling with these kinda payouts....... {image}
Monty,
Is Tradeify the same as TickTick on the direct to funded, once you hit the 7500 threshold (150K) you can pull the 3K from within the buffer? Then just make 3K to get it back to the 157500 and withdrawal 3K again......I do now tradeify requires 9000 now on new accounts, but same concept, you pull from within the "safety net"?

There is one more.

FX prop firm... you can keep for ever if you trade consistently.

Futures, after probably 6th payout, it leads to live funded account

the difference is the required consistency of 20% with the straight to funded futures firm , which you dont have with the Forex firm

If you make more than 20% of your profit target in a day , the profit target will increase with the STF futures , so you will have to cut winners if you dont want your profit target to increase

This will slow you down with the STF futures firm to reach your profit target and subsequent payout’s

Here are all the payout requirements with Tradeify ;

 

  1. Consistency Rule: Abide by the 20% Consistency Rule (See: What is the Consistency Rule?)
  2. Minimum Days Traded: You must trade on at least 10 separate days for your first withdrawal and between each subsequent payout request.

    1. If this requirement is not met by the end of the current pay period, you may request a payout in the next period once the requirement is fulfilled.
    2. 5 or more of the Minimum Days Traded must show a profit greater than:

      1. $100 in profit for 25k accounts
      2. $150 in profit for 50k accounts
      3. $200 in profit for 100k accounts
      4. $250 in profit for 150k accounts




With the forex firm , you can pass the 2 phases with a few large trades and get a payout without all those requirements..

The gamblers who hope to pass with a few large trades are better off with the forex firm

Forex firms are notorious of mending rules if you make money and receive large payouts. If traders make 1%-2% they are ok but larger they will make up shit rule like you can't risk more than 1% per trade etc which is worse than 20% consistency and this is from top notch firms like 5ers and FTMO forget about bucket shops.

Triple the pay for the same work........plus as mentioned above the forex firms just change shit whenever they wish.
Even with trailing EOD, a non gambler trader won't even be bothered by it. It becomes static after building the buffer anyway.

The futures firm gives you a live account and the forex firm bans you. Make no mistake, you are a liabilty to the firm until they move you to live. That is why they do it.
Forex props........collect fees from the 95% that fail, the 5% that pass get a few payouts and then potentially get banned to get you off the balance sheet

I guess since I've done both and now fully transitioned to futures, I may be byased. However, the facts are the facts. Perhaps it is simply the futures firms learned from the forex firms mistakes and the live account is the "out" to get rid of you.
Tradeify says they are going to copy you in live, so in addition to the 100% payout, you'll get 10% on top......pretty cool concept.
The way I see it, the forex props were 100% misleading from the get go while the futures firms are far more transparent.
I didn't care about the model of the forex prop and most intelligent traders using them knew the real deal, but it just "feels" better dealing with a transparent company than one telling you things that are not even close to the reality.

It all depends on timing. There was a time when forex firms are like futures firm. Even in futures look at APEX they were so linient.
It is classic casino game more signups less rules and lenient payouts.

{quote} I dont think the 1 step challenge you are hoping is sustainable from all sides. If we get sustainability from props and good access at reasonable prices i think that finally the props will be a long term project that can be used with 10 years in mind and some trust will come back. The wild west period was very negative to the community as it was basically pump.fun but for businesses.
Yes, that's true. I'm just keeping track of information from these broker-backed prop firms according to my criteria. What they offer may differ, but the criteria are clearly outlined in there. Who knows, someone might be interested because of the Black Friday discounts of up to around 30%, regardless of the challenge rules from each prop firm.

Some have offered a target of 5 to 6 percent, some use a 7-day limit, and others have no limit. However, so far, their standard is a 10% target or more. I think achieving 10% normally takes more than a month, if successful. Average gain maybe just 3.2%, a month or half month (https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers....act_id=4965616) (https://www.forexfactory.com/thread/...5#post15069355) . I like the betting model—taking actions with random outcomes accompanied by sufficient skill (it is trading). Ideally, it includes a fair price, a one-month time limit, drawdowns, and profit targets within reach.

Some prop brokers may have a long lifespan. Some have already ceased operations, such as Funded Prop BX, Vantage Elite, and The Forex Funder. Some may not fit the definition of a broker-backed prop firm, but this remains unclear.

No doubt, I would give more weightage to Futures firm.

A consistent FX trader, looking for 1 to 2 % biweekly with less risk can survive too in fx prop firm, a reputed good firm. FTMO.
