Leeloo Trading review: the drawdown that tracks money you never made
Leeloo Trading charges $250-$850 a month and its trailing drawdown tracks unrealised open equity - but it does not publish its profit split at all.
Lark Funding review: the margin rule that is not in the contract
Lark Funding pays out in about six hours, but a 20% margin-utilisation rule that sits outside the signed contract has been used to deny a $5,900 payout.
Funded Futures Network review: two funded states, one unpublished gate
FFN splits funded into Sim Funded Pro at 80% and Live Funded Pro at 90%. What every rival calls funded is FFN's lower tier — and the conversion rate is unpublished.
OFP Funding review: payout rules traders cannot verify upfront
OFP Funding skips the evaluation, then gates payouts on an Inconsistency Score it never defines. Trustpilot has also pulled its rating. Instant funding moves the filter.
Trade The Pool review: real stock fills, the cluster’s worst split
Trade The Pool funds US stocks through Interactive Brokers, not a simulated feed. That is why its rules are microstructure rules — and why 70% is not the whole story.
FTMO review: the only prop firm that owns a regulated broker
FTMO now owns OANDA and its licences in eight markets. But the challenge you buy is still unregulated simulated trading — and the split starts at 80%.
SabioTrade review: weekly payouts, a 6% trailing floor
SabioTrade pays weekly with a $1 crypto minimum, but its 6% drawdown trails from peak closed balance and never stops. The capital is simulated, not real.
TopTier Trader review: the TX3 rebrand reset every term
TopTier Trader is now TX3 Funding, and the rebrand halved the drawdown allowance. Most reviews still quote terms the firm no longer offers.
Topstep funded account review: 30 winning days to real capital
Topstep review: the Combine and Express accounts are simulated, the 50% best-day rule delays payouts, and only the Live account risks the firm's capital.
Nordic Funder review: a Swedish brand, a Forest Park FX contract
Nordic Funder brands itself Scandinavian, but its own terms name Forest Park FX LTD as counterparty — and Trustpilot carries unresolved Tradiac complaints.
Quant Tekel review: an FSCA broker, an SVG prop desk
QT Funded pays: $16m to 105,000 traders. But the FSCA licence belongs to the brokerage, not the St Vincent entity that owns your challenge.
Breakout Prop review: Kraken-owned, no published funding policy
Breakout Prop is Kraken's crypto-native funded-trader arm, offering static drawdowns and on-demand USDC payouts on perpetual futures.
Fintokei review: Japan-first rules and a Seychelles broker
Fintokei is a Czech-run prop firm with 60% of its clients in Japan.
Finotive Funding review: the strikes that cut payouts to 10%
Finotive Funding pairs a genuinely static drawdown with a Section 7 strike system in which several behavioural triggers each cut a payout cycle to 10% of profits.
Audacity Capital review: instant funding terms and a Trustpilot flag
Audacity Capital review: instant funding fees, 80% split, 10% static drawdown, the profit-doubling ladder and the Trustpilot flag traders should weigh.
