We wont name names 👀 but what we will say is our Elite LIVE Program is one of the best in the industry. ➡️ No Sim-Profit Cap ➡️ Multiple Live Transitions ➡️ One Live Account Per Funded Account ➡️ Get paid twice with our Performance Reward Pool

I could write a full easy 😀. From my own experience and personal opinion, also I trade only 150k accounts with every company, comparing with other companies, some details stands out. Platform, reliability, cost-value, payout caps, plans, live program, no frequent change in the programs, new plans or other marketing gimmicks. Not lately, but in general. And some other details. Of course you could argue every point with other companies, but to me always has been my 1st choice.

@IonJV @Topstep Topstep is obviously the OG: big, established, well-known. But what actually made you pick them? Curious what the deciding factor was for you personally.

🥇 Best prop firm right now? If not on the list, drop a comment below!

@Propfirm Thanks.

Yes, that's the overall max across all accounts combined. But most sim plans cap payouts at $1k-$2k per payout, and after a certain number of payouts you get moved to live. Rapid has no payout cap but you become eligible for a move to live once you hit $10k in payouts. Pro is the only plan that can get you up to $100k in a single payout. And of course once you're on Live, there's no cap at all.

Did you know you can get a $100,000 payout from a single 50k Pro account by @MyFundedFutures? New users: $114 (50% off) Existing users: $158 (30% off) Code: LAB You have no excuses. Get to work.

Equal distant swings are SUPER important. The yearly OR is 6902. The low is 6353. 6902-6353=549. After we had 2 closes above 6902 we are looking for an equal distant swing of 549 pts which takes us to 7451. What the market does in the downside it will do on the upside and it will do so in equal measure. 2 closes above 7451 targets 8000.

FundedNext is dropping something pretty nice tomorrow. We already know what it is — and trust us, you're going to like it. What's even better? It comes with a big launch discount. Check back tomorrow.

@Propfirm Static drawdown and an increase of cap per account per payout.

What would make you switch prop firms tomorrow?

@francisbacon912 @TraderSumo1 I stay away from MFFU, I think is one of the worst.

@TraderSumo1 think MFFU. I passed a rapid, instant upgrade to sim and payout all in that 2nd day.

Who do you think has the shortest time from sign up to payout in the funded prop world, and how long?

Personally, time to payout and no DD, I can work with the consistency rule. But in this case , trading with no DD and consistency. For me, when I look at the rules and time to payout, I take in consideration , what is the minimum buffer I have to leave after 1st payout, what is the maximum payout I can take. Based on that when a company has multiple options, I look at that to make a decision what type of account I buy.

@IonJV What's more important, time to payout from signup, or trading with no DD and consistency rules?

@TraderSumo1 Indeed. All of them are using marketing slogans. Just hate it when I see it and people are falling for it.

@IonJV Figures. They all have terrible models, so they punish their best traders.

@TraderSumo1 So far I managed to avoid that, but yes.

@IonJV Eventually they eval ban you and banish you to their live program?

@TraderSumo1 Topstep, you can do it in 4 days.

@IonJV @E8Markets Actually 3 days, or is that just marketing, where it's more like 6-9 calendar days?

@TraderSumo1 It’s actually 3 days. Because you don’t have to wait end of day to activate the funded account. Once you pass the account, within minutes ,you have the funded account, make profit and you have your 1st day.

@trades_sage @TakeProfitLLC @Tradeify @TradingLucid Indeed.

If I was starting in prop today and actually trusted my edge, I’d stop chasing random discount codes and do this: Buy 5 accounts at each: • @TakeProfitLLC 50K • @Tradeify 50K Select • @TradingLucid 50K Flex Why these three? - They have volume. - They actually pay. - And more importantly, they all give you a real path to 5 live accounts with fewer games. The goal isn’t “pass an eval.” The goal is to stack live accounts. - 5 live at TPT - 5 live at Tradeify - 5 live at Lucid That’s 15 live accounts. Now do the math: $500/day per account 15 accounts = $7,500/day Most traders are still fighting over who has the cheapest account. The real play is building a live account portfolio. Wake up.

@E8Bruin @E8Markets The Dynamic Drawdown, its very confusing. It took me a few tries to fully understand. You can’t have a break even day if you made some profit, that will yet some of your drawdown, and next day you have less.

This year, we’ll make @E8Markets number one. What do you recommend to change, add, or remove to achieve this? 👀👀👀

@TraderSumo1 Yes.

If you could only trade MNQ with 5 micros max, do you think you could make 2K in 3 days?

@TraderSumo1 Looking forward to it.

Do most prop traders not know that getting moved to live is bad for them? Significant loss of margin. No eval cost/ROI asymmetry. Eval ban. These firms managed to convince these traders that this is better for them? I can't wait for you guys to see what I've been cooking. Move to live. Scale your live account with evals. Copy trade as many evals as we can facilitate. Never get eval banned. I have a huge list of how we beat everyone. Too good to be true they'll say. You guys have no idea. Follow for more to come.

@E8Andrew @E8Markets A

No consistency rule on the sim-funded stage. That’s our next mission at @E8Markets . We’re currently preparing a version of our Signature accounts that will remove the no consistency rule on sim-funded accounts. That’s why we want to ask our community what you prefer. Option A = Higher payout caps, but a higher price Option B = Lower payout caps, but also more budget-friendly accounts Vote and comment. Will choose one comment to win free $50,000 Signature account.
