How this list is built

  • Programme type: one-step evaluation
  • Billing: one-time
  • Drawdown: trailing, end of day

Keep comparing

Every firm in the ranked lists on this page is a PFT Prop Scout partner: if you buy through our link or code we may earn a commission, and that commission changes neither the order nor the PFT Scout Score (see how we compare and the affiliate disclosure). Nothing here is financial advice or a recommendation to trade with any firm. Prop firm terms change often; read the current rules on the firm’s own site before you pay for an evaluation.
