How to choose
If payout caps are the problem, Take Profit Trader sets no maximum on PRO withdrawals and My Funded Futures states no cap per request on Rapid EOD. If commissions matter, Topstep and Take Profit Trader list lower round trip costs on standard contracts. If you run a bot, My Funded Futures and TradeDay allow automation under their rules and Topstep allows it through its paid API, while Apex, Take Profit Trader and Funded Futures Family ban it. Traders who value Tradeify’s end of day drawdown on funded accounts should note that Take Profit Trader PRO and TradeDay Quick Pay switch to intraday trailing once funded, as the futures prop firm drawdown rules guide explains. The EA and bot rules guide and the payout calculator help narrow the choice.
