- CLOSED: the firm is no longer operating. Do not buy a challenge here.
- Multi-asset prop firm (Rocket 21 Challenge, US) on DX Trade via Eightcap; simulated/virtual accounts
- 85% base split, up to 90% — but on Apollo 11 the 90% is a paid add-on
- Signature model: à-la-carte Apollo 11 — pay individually for split, drawdown, weekly payouts, early withdrawal
- Apollo 11 refunds the challenge fee on first withdrawal; failed 2-step can be “Revived”
- Caution: independent reviews report slow/delayed payouts and a rough 2025 US migration

Rocket 21
Rocket 21 a-la-carte pricing is genuinely novel: you buy exactly the drawdown room, split, payout cadence and early-withdrawal rights you want, the challenge fee comes back on your first withdrawal, and a failed two-step can be revived. The reservations are real: the accounts are simulated, the attractive terms are paid extras rather than the advertised base, and independent reports on payout speed put its reliability below the sector best. PROS:
- A-la-carte Apollo 11: pay only for the terms you actually need|Challenge fee refunded on your first withdrawal (Apollo 11)|Failed two-step accounts can be Revived rather than repurchased|Broad multi-asset range (forex, indices, metals, oil, crypto) with scaling to $2m|One-time fee, no monthly subscription
CONS:
- Independent reviews report slow or delayed payouts, waits of weeks in some cases|Rough early-2025 US platform migration locked some clients out for weeks|Accounts are simulated/virtual, not real capital|The 90% split, weekly payouts and early withdrawal are paid add-ons, not the base|Unregulated; exact legal entity not stated on public pages
- Appears DEFUNCT — website returns an error, no recent archives, trackers say “no longer available.” Do not buy
- Was an unregulated, simulated forex/CFD prop firm on cTrader (a T4TCapital/Traders4Traders brand); $5k–$1m
- Distinctive (historical): a mandatory minimum win-rate gate (~45%) plus a trader-to-“fund manager” career ladder
- Base 80% split rising toward 90%; monthly-only payouts — its own figures were internally inconsistent
- Kept online as a caution. If you are owed money, treat it as a payout failure and report it

Prop Trader
There is nothing to recommend: Prop Tradr appears to be defunct, its site does not load, and trackers report it is no longer available. Do not buy a challenge or send it money. As a general lesson, even before it disappeared Prop Tradr showed warning signs common to firms that do not last: internally inconsistent published figures (split, drawdown, jurisdiction and funding ceiling all quoted differently) and very aggressive scaling promises. Inconsistency and a quiet disappearance are reasons to be cautious. PROS:
- None - the firm appears to have shut down|Kept online here only as a documented warning|Serves as a cautionary example of inconsistent figures and a quiet disappearance|If you are owed money, the review explains how to report it|A reminder to be wary of firms whose own numbers do not add up
CONS:
- Appears defunct: website returns an error, no recent archives|Independent trackers report the site is no longer available|No official closure announcement to clients|Internally inconsistent published figures even while operating|Aggressive scaling promises (up to $4m) that it did not survive to deliver
- Caution: recurring unpaid/delayed payout complaints (2025–2026) — payout reliability is the main concern
- Unregulated, simulated forex/CFD prop firm on MT5; Hong Kong payments entity
- Signature: an HFT/EA-friendly 1-Step Algo challenge (HFT allowed only on that track)
- 80% split (up to 90%), 4% daily / ~8% max drawdown, no time limits, scaling advertised to $6.5M
- Does not accept US traders; “live trading” marketing conflicts with its own “simulated” wording

Optimal Traders
Optimal Traders is an unregulated, simulated forex and CFD prop firm on MetaTrader 5, with a Hong Kong payments entity. Its distinctive feature is an HFT-friendly 1-Step Algo challenge where high-frequency and EA strategies are allowed to pass, but only on that track. The central concern is payout reliability: through 2025 and 2026 there is a recurring pattern of unpaid and long-delayed payout complaints, alongside repeated platform-maintenance messages and unresponsive support. Reviews are mixed and no regulator action was found, but we advise real caution. The base split is 80 percent, up to 90 percent, with no time limits and scaling advertised to 6.5 million. It does not accept US traders. PROS:
- Dedicated HFT and EA-friendly Algo challenge (rare permission)
- No time limits on evaluations
- 80% split advertised up to 90%
- Wide scaling advertised to 6.5 million
- Frequent discount promotions
CONS:
- Serious, recurring 2025-2026 complaints of unpaid and delayed payouts
- Unregulated and simulated despite live-trading marketing
- News trading needs a paid add-on on newer accounts
- Appears COLLAPSED / closed — site down; trackers warn “do not send funds”; unpaid payouts reported. Do not buy
- Was a UAE prop firm (OneOfOne Funding), fronted by YouTuber “TJR,” launched Feb 2024; simulated forex/CFD on TradeLocker
- Its whole brand was a 100% profit split — structurally fragile, as a firm keeping 0% relies on failed-challenge fees
- Influencer-driven launch flood of 5-star reviews, then a wave of unpaid-payout and no-support complaints
- Kept online as a caution. If you are owed money, treat it as a loss and report it

1of1 Funding
There is nothing to recommend: 1 of 1 Funding appears to have collapsed, its site is down, trackers warn against sending it funds, and traders report unpaid payouts and undelivered challenges. Do not buy a challenge or deposit money. The broader takeaway: its downfall was written into its model, a 100 percent profit split, an influencer-driven launch and a review base inflated by a promotional flood, on top of economics that could not sustain real payouts at scale. When an offer looks too good to be true, slow down. PROS:
- None - the firm appears to have collapsed
- Kept online here only as a documented warning
- Serves as a cautionary example of an unsustainable 100% split
- If you are owed money, the review explains how to report it
- A reminder to distrust influencer-fronted firms with too-good-to-be-true offers
CONS:
- Appears collapsed: website down; trackers warn do not send funds
- Traders report unpaid payouts (3+ months), undelivered challenges and unissued refunds
- TradeLocker platform licence reportedly expired, locking traders out
