On-chain payouts

Paid to traders, measured on-chain

This firm does not appear in the on-chain payout aggregator.

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.

Leverage, commissions and instruments

Not comparable between firms, so not a sortable column. 6 firms publish commissions in three units: per side, per round trip, and prose per model. Per side versus round trip is a factor of two. Each figure keeps the name and unit the firm gives it.

Only what can close your account, taken from the census. Every line with its source. There is no severity ranking and no recommendation. What fits you depends on how you trade.

Prices

Careful: this firm publishes its prices in euros, not in dollars. It stays out of cross-firm price comparisons until there is a conversion with its date.

  • they scale the buying power with end-of-day profit, recalculated daily at 16:00 CT
  • in the profit phase you start with fewer contracts than in the challenge: on the 100K it is 10 standard during the challenge and 3 when you start earning. You have to generate $5,000 to get to 5, and even then it is half of the challenge

Questions about The Trading Pit Futures

Is The Trading Pit 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: 2 account models on this page, 14 official pages of theirs cited, and 38 dated readings behind the figures. Anything they do not publish is shown as a gap, not filled in.

How much does a The Trading Pit Futures challenge cost?

From $99 for a $50,000 account up to $599 for a $250,000 one, across their 2 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.

What profit split does The Trading Pit Futures pay?

Up to 80% 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.
