Pros & Cons
Main Benefits
  • Equities, options and CME futures in one unified account with a single drawdown. Level 4 options access covering multi-leg strategies. Overnight and weekend holding permitted, positions may be held up to 45 days, so swing trading is supported. One-time evaluation fee with no monthly subscription, refunded on the first valid payout. No time limit on standard evaluations. News trading allowed. Elite plans carry no daily loss limit. Foundation drawdown is static and never trails up.
  • Unique stocks & ETFs prop firm (12,000+ instruments). By The5ers team. 4.3 TrustPilot with 81% 5-star. Scale up to $4M. Both day trade and swing accounts.
Main Drawbacks
  • Not regulated by any financial authority; its own terms say it is not a broker or registered adviser and acts solely as an education firm. The binding Terms of Service state NO REFUNDS, contradicting the help centre 14-day refund window. The homepage advertises scaling to 20 accounts while the help centre caps a trader at 5 evaluations, 3 sim-funded and 1 live. Support is 8:30am-6pm EST weekdays, not the 24/5 claimed. TrustPilot is 3.1 from 50 reviews.
  • Only 70% profit split (low vs competitors). Stocks only — no forex/futures/crypto. $0.005/share commission. Cannot hold through earnings/dividends.
