More details +The Trade Pool
Trade The Pool is one of the very few prop firms built specifically for stock and ETF traders, the equities-focused arm of the 5%ers group (Five Percent Online Ltd). It offers simulated trading of more than 12,000 US-listed stocks and ETFs, including short-selling and penny stocks, with no Pattern Day Trader rule, on its own platform built on TraderEvolution. Its defining feature is a buying-power model paired with a Pump scaling engine that grows your buying power and daily-loss allowance by 10 percent at each 10 percent profit milestone. You pick a Flex track with unlimited time and fewer rules, or a cheaper Max track with a 60-day window and a stricter consistency rule, with day-trade buying power from 5,000 to 200,000 plus swing tiers. The profit split is 70 percent, payouts start 14 days after inception with a 300 dollar minimum, and US traders are welcomed. It is simulated and does not offer futures or crypto.PROS:
- One of the few genuine stock and ETF prop firms
- Buying power for 12,000-plus US stocks and ETFs, including short-selling, no PDT rule
- Pump scaling grows buying power with performance
- Flex (unlimited time) or cheaper Max (60-day) tracks
- US traders explicitly welcomed
CONS:
- Simulated, not real share ownership, and unregulated
- Modest 70 percent profit split by current standards
- Up-to-72-hour risk review before payout
- Slovak prop firm (RIFM s.r.o., Bratislava) with simulated forex/metals evaluations on its own RF-Trader platform; capital to ~$320k; funded RCF stage managed by RIFM or FRCSM s.r.o.
- Signature: a patient-trader model — no time limit (up to ~999 days/phase) plus a headline “200% Maximum Refund”
- Unusually wide ladder: 1-phase Gold to 4-phase Copper, plus an 8-level Diamond scaling program
- Split not stated on its own pages (third-party ~75–90%); payouts first ~14 days then bi-weekly
- Watch: “funded” marketing vs fictitious-trading Terms; inconsistent refund figure
★★★★★
More details +Rebels Funding
Rebels Funding has a genuinely distinctive, trader-friendly pitch: no time limit on evaluations, an oversized 200% refund, a wide 1-to-4-phase-plus-scaling ladder, and a broadly positive reputation (around 4.3 Trustpilot, with platform lag rather than non-payment the main gripe). Go in with two things clear: it is an unregulated, fully simulated firm whose Terms disclaim any entitlement to payout and whose split is not stated on its own pages, and its funded stage runs under a two-entity structure, with RIFM s.r.o. providing the evaluations and RIFM or FRCSM s.r.o. managing the funded RCF stage. Verify the key terms directly before buying.PROS:
- Patient-trader model: no time limit on evaluations (up to ~999 days per phase)
- Headline 200 percent maximum refund, higher than the usual 100 percent
- Unusually wide ladder: 1-phase Gold to 4-phase Copper plus an 8-level Diamond program
- Simulated capital to about $320,000; standing 30%-off first-challenge promo
- Broadly positive ~4.3 Trustpilot, with platform lag rather than non-payment the main gripe
CONS:
- Profit split not stated on the firm own pages; must be verified directly
- Fully simulated with Terms disclaiming any entitlement to payout
- Refund figure quoted inconsistently (100% / 150% / 200%)
- Austria-based prop firm (TradersYard GmbH, Vienna) with simulated forex/CFD challenges on YardPlatform, TradingView and MT5
- Current lineup: preset Instant, 1-Step and 2-Step challenges from $5K to $100K, with Build Your Yard still available for custom setups
- Tiered split: 100% first $300, 90% to $1,000, then 80% (effective 80%)
- Unusual perks: 48-business-hour payout guarantee (or they pay you) and a reward even if you fail
- Watch: “Swiss-backed” but Austrian entity; “up to 100%” and “up to $300k” are best-case framings
★★★★★
More details +Traders Yard
Traders Yard is one of the more genuinely innovative firms in this batch. The preset challenge lineup is now clearer, futures accounts are live, and the Build Your Yard configurator still gives advanced traders control over custom rules. Read the details rather than the headlines: the account is simulated under a signal-provider model, the split is tiered, and the up-to-$300k claim depends on allocation/scaling rather than one simple account headline. TradersYard also publishes several scale signals: $410K+ in total rewards, an 8-hour average reward time, $76M in challenge volume and 25K+ active traders, plus iOS and Android apps. Treat award claims as firm-supplied unless independently verified.PROS:
- Preset CFD challenges are now clearer, while Build Your Yard still supports custom setups
- Published 8-hour average reward time, with a 48-business-hour guarantee if missed
- Loyalty scheme gives a reward even if you fail a challenge; iOS and Android apps are available
- One-time fee, no monthly or data fees; 14-day money-back if no trades placed
- Static or trailing drawdown, chosen at purchase; strong Trustpilot record
CONS:
- Tiered split needs context: a $1,000 reward pays $930, while larger payouts move closer to 80% only above $1,000
- Simulated and unregulated structure requires careful terms review before buying
- 48-business-hour payout guarantee can be longer across weekends and public holidays
- Not a challenge firm: a US prop firm (founded 1997) that trains and funds traders with its own real capital
- You apply, interview and complete a paid qualification program before real capital is allocated
- Real firm money, not a simulator — a 1099 contractor role starting ~$25k, scaling with performance
- 65–90% split (60–90% on currencies), paid monthly by ACH with bonuses
- A $199 desk fee plus a trading bond and tuition — but the exact figures are not published; you apply to learn them
★★★★★
More details +Maverick Trading
Maverick Trading is not a challenge shop. It is a US proprietary trading firm founded in 1997 that recruits, trains and funds traders with its OWN REAL capital as 1099 independent contractors of its trading LLCs. The path is apply, interview, complete a paid qualification program (1,000+ hours, tests, a coach-monitored demo), then get allocated real firm capital (starting around $25k, scaling with no cap). The split is 65-90% (60-90% on currencies), paid monthly by ACH with milestone bonuses, and the firm charges no commission mark-up or spread fees and imposes no volume requirement. The trade-offs are effort and transparency: the exact tuition and required trading bond are NOT published (you apply to learn them), the path is long, and the funded start is modest - but it is real capital, and the firm has done this since 1997.PROS:
- Real firm capital, not a simulated funded account - allocated after you qualify
- Genuine long-form mentorship and a 25-year track record (founded 1997)
- High 65-90% profit split (60-90% on currencies), rising with consistency, no cap on levels
- Paid monthly by ACH, with performance and milestone bonuses
- No commission mark-up and no spread fees - incentives aligned with trader P&L
- No volume requirement; high-frequency trading actively discouraged
- Remote and part-time trading explicitly allowed
CONS:
- Opaque upfront pricing: a $199 desk fee plus a required trading bond and tuition, but the exact tuition and bond figures are NOT published - you must apply to learn them
- A long, effort-heavy path to funding (weeks of coursework, tests and monitored demo) versus a same-week challenge
- Modest starting capital (~$25,000) versus the headline simulated accounts of challenge firms
- No published hard drawdown or daily-loss number - risk control is discretionary and coach-driven
- No regulator backstop (it trades its own capital and is not a brokerage)

★★★★★
More details +PropW
PropW is a crypto-focused simulated prop firm with static-drawdown Standard and Pro programs, USDT payouts and a clear 45% consistency rule. The setup is interesting for crypto-native traders, but the simulated/unregulated model and rule details need careful review before buying.PROS:
- Crypto-focused model with PropW's own simulated trading environment and up to 5x leverage.
- Standard Mode and Pro Mode both use static drawdown, which is easier to understand than trailing drawdown.
- USDT payouts, an 80% default reward split and a stated path up to 90%.
- The 45% consistency rule can delay a payout request, but no challenge restart is required once the ratio is brought back inside the limit.
CONS:
- PropW is a simulated-account firm and says it is not regulated by a financial regulator.
- Some payout and pricing details should be checked at checkout because not every account-size fee is exposed in one clean static table.
- The trading rules are crypto-prop specific, including a 60-second minimum trade duration and a 10-calendar-day maximum holding period.
- US firm (Funder Trading LLC, Chicago) built around options and stock funding — rare in the sector
- Signature: one of the few prop firms that funds options traders, up to $250k advertised, on its TrueEdge platform
- Priced as a recurring subscription (not a one-time fee), with a strict no-refunds policy
- Terms frame it as “solely an educator”; reportedly no overnight holding of positions
- Split, drawdown and payout specifics are behind the login — confirm directly. Different firm from FunderPro
★★★★★
More details +Funder Trading
Funder Trading occupies a genuinely useful niche: one of the few places an options or stock trader can pursue a funded account, with its own platform and an active education-and-community layer. Approach it with clear eyes: the pricing is a recurring subscription with no refunds, the Terms frame it as education rather than real capital, the reported no-overnight-holding rule can undercut options strategies, and the core numbers are not published. Confirm the holding rules, split and payouts directly before subscribing.PROS:
- Rare options and stock funding niche, up to $250k advertised
- Proprietary TrueEdge platform, options dashboard and live trading room
- Bundled education and community for developing traders
- US-based (Chicago) and operating normally as of mid-2026
- A genuine home for options traders the futures-first firms do not fit
CONS:
- Reportedly no overnight holding of stock or option positions - a big constraint for options
- Recurring subscription pricing with a strict no-refunds policy
- Split, drawdown and payout specifics are not published (behind the login)
- UAE-based prop firm (WSF Technology FZCO, Dubai) with simulated forex/indices/crypto challenges on MT4, MT5 and cTrader
- Signature: a permissive funded account — 12% static drawdown, no trailing, no consistency rule
- The catch: funded-stage profits around high-impact news (4 min either side) may be clawed back
- Flat 80% split on the firm’s own pages (third-party “up to 90%” unconfirmed)
- First payout ~15 days then every 10 days, up to 3/month; one-time fee, no monthly
★★★★★
More details +Wall Street Funded
Wall Street Funded gets a lot right for active traders: a wide 12% static drawdown, no trailing, no consistency rule, MT4/MT5/cTrader support, a fast 10-day payout cycle and one-time fees. Two things to weigh: the accounts are simulated despite the funded language, and the funded-stage news-window clawback can undo profits earned around releases. Read your plan drawdown type (instant accounts trail), take the split as 80%, and confirm the clawback rule if you news-trade.PROS:
- Permissive funded account: 12% static drawdown, no trailing, no consistency rule
- Fast payouts: first after about 15 days, then every 10 days, up to 3 a month
- Broad platform support (MT4, MT5, cTrader) and multiple evaluation types
- One-time fee, no monthly subscription; 2-step fee refundable on first payout
- Active operation with a roughly 4.4 Trustpilot on the wsfunded.com domain
CONS:
- Funded-stage profits around high-impact news (4 min either side) may be clawed back
- Headline no-trailing banner does not match instant accounts, which do trail
- Split is a flat 80%; third-party up-to-90% claims are unconfirmed
