CFD Prop Firms

TradeFundrr is a New York-based day trading prop firm founded by Christian Bose, partnered with T3 Trading Group (SEC-registered broker-dealer, FINRA/SIPC member) and T3 Global Group.

Alpha Trader Firm (alphafunded.com) is a proprietary trading firm founded in 2022 offering funded accounts of up to $4,000,000 in total allocation. The firm supports TradeLocker, MetaTrader 5, and Match-Trader, with profit splits reaching up to 100%. Traders benefit from professional coaching, flexible trading rules, and on-demand payouts.

Funded Academy is a clean, straightforward evaluation with several trader-friendly touches: no consistency rule, no time limit, a low $100 payout minimum, 24-hour processing, a strong 85% base split on 1-Step, and a genuinely free education primer with no upsell. The caveats: it is young and unregulated, the accounts are simulated, and the Pro Flex vs Standard choice is LOCKED AT CHECKOUT - get it wrong and you cannot add weekend or news-holding rights without buying a new challenge. There is also a documented mismatch between the FAQ (news trading allowed on challenges) and the binding Terms (news trading listed as prohibited), so confirm with support if that matters. Note it does not accept US or UK traders.
