Last reviewed: 14 July 2026. Checked against Earn2Trade’s official terms, help centre, withdrawal policy and live purchase pages. Figures below reflect the products on sale at the time of review; prop firm rules change often, so always confirm on the firm’s own pages before you buy.
Firm Overview
Earn2Trade is a futures evaluation and education firm, operating as Earn2Trade LLC from Sheridan, Wyoming, with disputes arbitrated in Austin, Texas. It is not regulated, and its terms say so directly: “E2T is not a broker-dealer… nor does E2T directly offer any financial advice.”
The structure is unusual and worth understanding. Earn2Trade runs the evaluation; the funded account is then issued by one of three partner proprietary trading firms — Helios Trading Partners, Appius Trading Limited and Kronos Proprietary Trading. Our earlier review described Helios as a clearing house and named it as the only partner. Both were wrong: Helios is a prop firm, and it is one of three.
The firm deserves real credit for one thing. It publishes its own pass rate in the site footer: 8.89% for 2025. It also discloses that only 18% of funded accounts ever took a withdrawal. Almost nobody in this industry publishes numbers like that.
The Profit Split Is Tiered By Withdrawal Size
This is the most important correction to our earlier page, which described a flat 80/20 split. The current structure is tiered — and, unusually, the tier is set by the size of each individual withdrawal, not by your accumulated profit.
“The profit split depends on withdrawal size, is not based on accumulated profit, it is based on the single withdrawal size.”
| Account | 50% split applies | 80% split applies |
|---|---|---|
| TCP25 | Under $1,500 | $1,500 and above |
| TCP50 / GM50 | Under $2,250 | $2,250 and above |
| TCP100 / GM100 | Under $3,000 | $3,000 and above |
| TCP150 / GM150 | Under $4,000 | $4,000 and above |
| TCP200 / GM200 | Under $5,000 | $5,000 and above |
| TCP400 | Fixed 60/40 split, whatever the size | |
The practical consequence is the part nobody reports: a trader who takes small, frequent withdrawals is permanently on 50%. To reach 80% you must let profit accumulate and withdraw in larger blocks. That is a meaningful change in how you should plan your payouts, and it is the opposite of the “take profit early and often” instinct.
In fairness to Earn2Trade, two of its own older help articles still say 80/20 — which is very likely why most reviews of this firm, including our previous one, still repeat it.
The 10-Day Minimum Has Been Removed
Our earlier review listed “10 minimum trading days” as a drawback. Earn2Trade deleted that rule on 6 July 2026, and we were criticising them for something they no longer do. Their own announcement:
“Big news: You can now pass your evaluation without waiting out 10 trading days.”
Two honest caveats. The removal applies only to evaluations purchased on or after 6 July 2026 — earlier buyers are still on the old rule. And there is a practical floor: because of the 30% consistency rule, Earn2Trade itself notes that “a trader will need at least four profitable trading days to complete an evaluation.”
The Product Line
| Plan | Balance | Profit goal | EOD drawdown | Daily loss limit | Max contracts |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| TCP25 | $25,000 | $1,750 | $1,500 | $550 | 3 |
| TCP50 / GM50 | $50,000 | $3,000 | $2,000 | $1,100 | 6 |
| TCP100 / GM100 | $100,000 | $6,000 | $3,500 | $2,200 | 12 |
| GM150 | $150,000 | $9,000 | $4,500 | $3,300 | 15 |
| GM200 | $200,000 | $11,000 | $6,000 | $4,400 | 16 |
The fee is a monthly subscription, auto-renewing every 30 days until you pass or cancel. List prices run $150 to $550 a month, currently halved by a promotion. Resets are $100 as standard, and the Trader Career Path includes one free reset after each rebill. Nothing is refundable: “we do not provide refunds after purchase.”
A $139 setup fee applies on LiveSim, but it is deducted from your first withdrawal rather than paid upfront — so you only pay it if you profit. That is a fair arrangement and worth noting.
The Drawdown Changes Once You Go Live
Our earlier review described end-of-day drawdown throughout. That is not quite right:
- Evaluation and funded LiveSim: end-of-day trailing, updated on closed positions at the close.
- Funded Live accounts: intraday trailing — “updates your minimum balance continuously, based on both open and closed positions throughout the trading day.”
- Top of the ladder: the drawdown becomes fixed ($194,000 on a $200K account).
And a detail that catches people out even on the end-of-day accounts: “traders can still lose their evaluation or funded trading account if their open equity falls below the minimum balance in real time.” So even the EOD drawdown has a live kill switch on open positions.
The Rule That Ends Funded Accounts
Missing from our earlier page, and the most consequential rule on this one:
“Unscheduled absences of five consecutive trading days will result in account termination.“
A week’s holiday, unannounced, ends the account. There is also a 120-day dormancy rule, and a 30% consistency rule during the evaluation (no single day may be 30% or more of total profit — it does not fail you, but you must keep trading until the ratio falls).
Payouts
| Payout term | Detail |
|---|---|
| Minimum | $100 net |
| Cycle | Weekly, processed every Wednesday (request by 2pm CT the Friday before) |
| Split | Tiered – 50% or 80% by withdrawal size; 60% on the $400K |
| Methods and fees | Rise ($50, or 1.5% in the US), Deel ($50), Bayzat ($5-$40), crypto (0.735%) |
| LiveSim caps | $1,750 to $6,000 per account, depending on size |
Note the withdrawal fees are real and not trivial — a $50 flat fee on a $1,000 withdrawal is 5%. Combined with the tiered split, the arithmetic strongly favours fewer, larger withdrawals.
Trading Rules
- News trading: permitted with no restrictions — a genuine advantage for futures traders.
- Overnight and weekend holding: not permitted. All positions must be closed by 15:50 CT.
- Copy trading: prohibited, in the evaluation and after funding.
- Automation and EAs: the rules are discretionary rather than clear. Nothing says EAs are allowed or banned; the prohibited-conduct policy bars software or AI that “could potentially… provide an unfair advantage”. We would not rely on running an EA here without asking first.
- Contract limits: exceeding them is a hard fail.
- Accounts: up to 5 concurrent evaluations, 3 funded LiveSim, and 1 funded Live.
- Instruments: futures only — CME, COMEX, NYMEX and CBOT.

Who Earn2Trade Actually Suits
Earn2Trade is one of the more honest operators in this sector. It publishes its pass rate, it names its partner firms, its Trustpilot score is high and clean, news trading is unrestricted, and the setup fee only bites if you actually make money. For a serious futures trader, the platform range is excellent and the rules are mostly clear.
The economics deserve careful thought. The evaluation bills monthly, so a slow pass is an expensive one. The split is tiered by withdrawal size, which quietly penalises the trader who takes money out often — and the $50 withdrawal fees compound that. Live accounts trail intraday, which is harsher than most people expect. And five consecutive days away from the screen will end a funded account.
Consider it if you trade futures daily, you can pass quickly enough to keep the subscription cheap, and you are willing to let profit build and withdraw in larger blocks to reach the 80% tier.
Avoid it if you want to withdraw small amounts frequently, you hold positions overnight, or you cannot commit to trading most weeks without a break.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is Earn2Trade’s profit split?
It is tiered by the size of each individual withdrawal, not by accumulated profit. Below a threshold you receive 50%; at or above it you receive 80%. The threshold is $1,500 on a $25K account, rising to $5,000 on a $200K. The $400K account is fixed at 60/40. Taking small, frequent withdrawals keeps you permanently on 50%.
Does Earn2Trade have a minimum trading day requirement?
No — it was removed on 6 July 2026 for evaluations purchased on or after that date. In practice, the 30% consistency rule means you will still need about four profitable trading days to pass, as Earn2Trade itself notes.
Is Earn2Trade a monthly subscription?
Yes. The evaluation bills every 30 days and renews automatically until you pass or cancel, at $150 to $550 a month depending on the plan. Nothing is refundable. The $139 setup fee on LiveSim is the exception — it is deducted from your first withdrawal rather than charged upfront.
Does Earn2Trade have a trailing drawdown?
It depends on the stage. The evaluation and LiveSim use end-of-day trailing. Live funded accounts use intraday trailing, updating continuously on open and closed positions. At the top of the ladder the drawdown becomes fixed. Note that even the end-of-day accounts can be failed in real time if open equity falls below the minimum balance.
What happens if I stop trading at Earn2Trade?
Five consecutive trading days of unscheduled absence terminates a funded account. There is also a 120-day dormancy rule. If you are planning time away, contact them first.
Can you hold trades overnight at Earn2Trade?
No. All positions must be closed by 15:50 CT, and agricultural and livestock products have earlier cut-offs. Weekend holding is therefore also not possible. News trading, by contrast, is permitted with no restrictions.
