Why choose TradeDay over everyone else?
Today, there are lots of options in the market to get your trading evaluated and funded. Its a great time to be a trader!
From speaking to our traders, this is the feedback we have gotten on why they choose TradeDay over its competitors:
- We have the best payout policy in the industry - we checked!
− - We don’t change the Trailing Maximum Drawdown Limit on you when you are funded - Unlike some other prop firms, your funded account will look exactly like your evaluation account.
− - There is only one rule at TradeDay - Don’t break the Trailing Maximum Drawdown Limit.
+ - No activation fees. Once you successfully complete your evaluation, there are no additional activation fees required to access your funded account.
+ - Your drawdown rules remain transparent after passing. For Fast Pass accounts, your funded account maintains the same Trailing Maximum Drawdown Limit as your evaluation account. For Quick Pay accounts, once you pass, you move into a Funded Sim account with an intraday drawdown structure, which may differ from the drawdown rules applied during evaluation.
- We are trusted - We have been in business since 2020 and make payouts daily.
- We supply our members with the tools they need to succeed - inside our members area, you will find a wealth of resources to help you find your edge in the market.
