Only 39 of the 102 firms in the census appear in the on-chain aggregator. A firm that pays by bank transfer does not show up here, and that does not mean it does not pay. It means this figure cannot be checked on a blockchain.

Questions about Alpha Futures

Is Alpha Futures worth checking, and where do these numbers come from?

We do not rate firms. What we can tell you is what it publishes and where we read it: 4 account models on this page, 24 official pages of theirs cited, and 90 dated readings behind the figures. Anything they do not publish is shown as a gap, not filled in.

How much does a Alpha Futures challenge cost?

From $349 for a $25,000 account up to $859 for a $150,000 one, across their 4 models. A cheap fee on a small account is not a cheap account, so the table on this page keeps size and price together, and every figure links to the page it was read on. The fee buys the attempt, not the account.

Can you hold positions over the weekend at Alpha Futures?

No. Alpha Futures requires positions to be flat before the weekend close. If your strategy holds for days, this rule alone rules the firm out, and it is easier to check now than on a Friday evening.

Does Alpha Futures allow bots and expert advisors?

No. Alpha Futures forbids automated trading. Read it before you bring anything that clicks for you, including copy tools and semi-automatic execution helpers.

What profit split does Alpha Futures pay?

Up to 90% on their best model, not on all of them, so check the model you are buying in the table above. A split only pays out if you also clear their payout conditions.

What does Alpha Futures forbid outright?

8 practices that they name themselves. They are listed on this page with their own wording, because the wording is the rule: “high-frequency” and “latency arbitrage” are not the same thing.
