FTMO: Our Take
FTMO is the prop firm other prop firms measure themselves against. Over $200M paid out since 2015. Static drawdown. Four platforms. A 2-step challenge that practically wrote the rulebook everyone else copied. The 80% base split isn't the highest anymore. The fees aren't the cheapest. But when half the industry disappeared overnight in 2023, FTMO was still processing payouts on Tuesday. That kind of trust doesn't show up on a spreadsheet. It shows up in your sleep quality.
FunderPro Futures: Our Take
FunderPro's futures trading arm offers Daily Rewards (get funded in 3 days), a Daily Pause feature to prevent account failures, and trailing drawdown that locks once it reaches your starting balance. Currently running $0 activation fee promo until August 31, 2026.
