Pros & Cons
Main Benefits
  • 3 live account types (Zero/Premium/Advanced), Maximum Loss Limit is EOD trailing and stops trailing once it reaches the starting balance (never resets to $0 on withdrawal), 90% flat profit split from day one on all plans, on-demand payouts up to 4x/month after 5 winning days of $200+, industry-large withdrawal caps (up to $15,000/request on Advanced), Zero plan has $0 activation fee permanently and no consistency rule on evaluation (can pass in 1 day)
  • Up to 100% profit split, bi-weekly payouts within 24h, no daily loss limit on standard accounts, EOD trailing drawdown that locks at initial balance after first payout, multiple platforms (Tradovate, NinjaTrader, Quantower, ATAS, Volumetrica) plus proprietary DeepDom + DeepCharts tools, instant account option, customizable challenges, no minimum trading days on evaluation, no consistency rule during challenge phase on Prime plans.
Main Drawbacks
  • Zero plan carries a 2% Daily Loss Guard on evaluation and a 40% consistency rule on the Qualified stage; Premium/Advanced Qualified accounts require a $149 one-time activation fee (Premium traders can instead pay a higher monthly evaluation rate to waive it); reset fees required to retry a failed evaluation; legacy Standard plan (tiered 70/80/90% split) was retired May 1, 2026 and is no longer for sale
  • Italian SRLS micro-entity (not regulated by a financial authority — typical for prop firms), 40% consistency rule on Prime simulated funded stage, 20% consistency rule on Instant funded accounts, monthly recurring billing on evaluations, fully-automated AI/bot trading prohibited.
