Questions traders ask

Which $50k futures accounts plan is the cheapest to start?

DayTraders.com Static at $55 for a $50K account, checked November 12, 2026. Cheapest to start is not cheapest to get funded: the table's "cost to funded" column counts resets and fees against the simulated pass rate.

Which firm in this list has the best Trustpilot score?

My Funded Futures, with 4.9 of 5 from 22,692 reviews, among firms with at least 100 reviews.

What does activation and reset fees mean?

The listed price is often not the full cost. An activation fee may be due when you pass, a reset costs money when you fail, and monthly plans keep billing until you pass. Read the full explainer: Activation and reset fees.

How does PropTested rank these plans?

Each plan is scored out of 100 the same way whichever firm sells it: 45% cost until funded (the plan's own rules simulated 3,000 times for a trader with no edge), 35% the firm's record and 20% payout terms. Commission never enters the score. The method is published on the methodology page.
