Pros & Cons
Main Benefits
  • On-demand payouts. Up to 100% profit split. No time limit on challenges.
  • Pay After You Pass Flex Challenge ($9 entry); Instant Funding option; on-demand payouts; no stop-loss requirement; news trading allowed; weekend holding allowed; up to 80% profit split; scales up to $6.4M; supports Forex + Futures.
Main Drawbacks
  • Originally London UK, now Dubai UAE. 3-Step challenges have low profit potential.
  • Acquisition of TradingFunds in 2026 produced migration friction (server reconfiguration, account access issues per TrustPilot). Strict consistency rules (largest day 20-40% of profit). Profit split starts at 60-65% in lower tiers; 80%+ requires scaling.
