Futures prop firms. The questions, answered with the census
What are Futures prop firms?
Firms that fund traders on Futures markets through an evaluation. You pay a fee, trade to a profit target without breaking their risk rules, and if you pass you get a payout-eligible account. The census tracks 31 of them and 125 account models.
How much does a Futures challenge cost?
Only 61 of 125 models state a price you can read for a 100,000 account. They run from $132 to $990, with a median of $300. And 37 of those 61 prices have a source link and a read date.
Do Futures prop firms charge monthly fees?
18 of the 125 models in this market charge a recurring monthly fee on top of the evaluation price, with a median of $273 a month. It keeps charging until you pass, cancel or reset. The comparison table shows it apart from the sticker price.
What drawdown rules do Futures prop firms use?
5 different drawdown types coexist in this market. The most common is Trailing until it locks, on 60 of the 125 models. The type decides whether a winning day raises the level you can be stopped out at, so the same percentage can be two different products.
What profit split do Futures prop firms pay?
The median published split in this market is 90%, and the highest is 100%. Payout frequency, minimum thresholds, consistency rules and buffer requirements decide whether you see the money. The census records the split per model, with its source.
Can you trade the news with a Futures prop firm?
10 of the 31 firms in this market publish a news-trading rule, and 7 of those allow it outright. Another 21 firms are not verified for this rule, and they are named instead of left out.
What platforms do Futures prop firms use?
The most frequent ones in the census are Tradovate (10), NinjaTrader (8), and Quantower (7). Platform support varies by firm, account type and region, and it is one of the fields firms change without announcing it. So each one is dated and linked to the firm’s own page here.
Are Futures prop firms regulated, and how do I check one?
Most are not regulated the way a broker is: they run evaluation or simulated-account models rather than holding client funds, so the firm’s own terms are what you check. Only 11 of the 31 firms in this market publish how long they have been operating.
