How I check the numbers

The firms on the site are the eight I recommend, plus FTMO Futures and Topstep. The rules come from the firm's own page when I can open it. If two numbers disagree, I keep both. Lucid's 50K price is one I refused to smooth over.

The comparison row is one named plan, usually a 50K. Other plans live on the same firm when a list page needs them, such as MyFundedFutures Rapid for daily payouts. They are not mixed into the Builder row.

List price is the sticker, not the coupon price. Promo codes move weekly. I don't store a sale price as if it were the product. Activation fees stay separate, because a cheap monthly sticker can hide one.

Recommended follows the goal you pick: fastest to payout, most flexible rules, or most room to survive. Firms I marked as a top pick come first inside that goal. It is not a commission rank. You can also sort by cheapest eval, largest drawdown, or A to Z. Cheapest eval uses the list price, not a sale price. A missing price or a missing drawdown goes last.

The table, reviews, versus pages, and lists all read the same firm file.
