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.

Recorded in Spanish. We store a reading of these practices rather than the firm’s literal wording, so this is a paraphrase and not a quote. The source link beside each block is the firm’s own page.

  • bots and ATS bought from third parties, and the same ATS across several users
  • strategies that exploit pricing errors or platform delays
  • spoofing, layering and any practice forbidden by the CME
  • very-high-frequency scalping ATS and more than 200 trades a day
  • order splitting: several orders at the same price at once
  • trading gaps and illiquid markets to take advantage of missed fills
  • exploiting the simulation's lack of slippage, e.g. data bracketing
  • trading outside the best bid/offer or with an external or slow feed
  • trading within 2% of a price limit (this ban costs you the funded account)

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.

  • “TradeDay does not charge any additional commission on top of the commission charged by its broker.”
  • “Prices are per lot traded (per side), and include brokerage fee, NFA fee, Clearing fee and Exchange fee.”
  • the simulated commission goes into the P&L of the evaluation and of the Funded Sim, and it is calibrated against the real one

Questions about TradeDay

Is TradeDay 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: 3 account models on this page, 24 official pages of theirs cited, and 85 dated readings behind the figures. Anything they do not publish is shown as a gap, not filled in.

Can you trade the news at TradeDay?

With conditions. TradeDay allows it but fences it, usually with a window of minutes either side of a high-impact release. The condition is what matters, so read it on their page before you size a position around a number.

Can you hold positions over the weekend at TradeDay?

No. TradeDay 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 TradeDay allow bots and expert advisors?

With conditions. TradeDay allows automation but sets limits on it. The usual line is between a tool that helps you execute and a system that trades without you, and firms draw it in different places.

What profit split does TradeDay 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.

What does TradeDay forbid outright?

9 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.
