All prop firms, old and new, should take pages out of TradeDay’s book on how to run a prop firm. Though be it my relationship with TradeDay has been short, for now, I will say that I would highly recommend them over the other prop firms that I have been a part of. I am currently in their evaluation, everything has been smooth, the only “cons” per say that I had with them had been updated in their most recent changes. These include a new 90-10 profit split, less minimum trading days, and changes in the combine that helps promote better habits while still allowing traders to trade fairly and with less restrictions. They truly listen to the feedback of both their traders and potential traders who are in the combine. With that said, I can honestly say there is nothing negative I can say about TradeDay. Truly feels like your development as a trader is their priority, unlike other prop firms who have strict business models that prey on new traders and monthly/reset fees to turn a profit. Their free courses that you can access with a 14 day free trial can be insanely valuable to both new traders or experienced ones that sometime need a reminder of the basics and fundamentals. Customer support has been faster than any other firms, James has personally replied to all, if not almost all of my support tickets. You are not just a number when you partner with TradeDay, unlike the other bigger firms. I look forward to going through my evaluation and getting into a funded account with them in the weeks to come. Level of professionalism is unmatched, level of integrity is unmatched, and overall effort put towards the development of potential partners (traders getting funded) is unmatched. I would absolutely highly recommend if anyone is looking for a prop firm to work with! Will definitely be back to update my experience with them after my evaluation period.

I just blew up another account. This time for the second time, I cleared the 4K number. I earned 5K on my way to 6K when the carrot size of seven units dangled in front of me, and I pushed the limit instead of scaling back and waiting to reach the thirty percent mark. At that point, the dashboard still needed to be updated from the day prior. The days traded showed 14, and I was completing day 15, the required number of days to qualify for funding. The inconsistent days were showing two days. That meant I still needed to reach the thirty percent required, at least from the previous day’s stats. Failing was okay for me. Why? I was more focused on better understanding the inner me—the chatter inside my head and my intuition to take action. And why it was so difficult for me to accept a slight loss or click the exit button when the market was going against my position before it reached my stop loss. After all, I failed since signing up in June 2022, and it’s now March 2023.There are answers to it all, but they are not crucial for the review of TradeDay®. I have no problems with TradeDay®. I believe TradeDay® to be an excellent professional provider unmatched by others. I recommend it to anyone looking to trade someone else’s money. Unfortunately, my journey is reaching a close end. I decided to reset, and if I fail to overcome what has been in my way. The odds are I will end my membership with TradeDay® for now. Why? I’ve run out of money and have accumulated too much credit card debt to continue a monthly subscription. So take your time, and plan accordingly. Work the process that aligns you with your inner self as you interpret and acts on market-generated data. The journey never ends. Secure the leap before taking the leap that cancels the efforts put forth. Good Luck to you on your journey to becoming a funded trader.

TradeDay has recently come out with some new evaluation accounts to choose from, and the choices are great. The trailing drawdown trails the account’s end of day balance, rather than unrealized intraday like most other prop firms. And another thing to note, after your trailing drawdown reaches the account start balance, the drawdown stops trailing, even for the evaluation account! So for example: in the 100k account, the trailing max drawdown is $2,000. So if you get the account to $102,000, the drawdown stops at $100,000, and now you just have to worry about keeping the balance above where the account started. Not only are the evaluation rules the best I’ve seen, but the payout rules for a Live funded account are the best you’ll find as well. No restrictions on payouts! You make money the first day you got funded? Well guess what, you can take a payout on day one!And as the cherry on top, I have never experienced a more thorough, and helpful, customer support from a company. TradeDay always responds to a help ticket within a couple hours, if not minutes, and James or Steve typically are dealing with support tickets themselves! I have never received such amazing customer support from any company, so thought it was worth mentioning. I highly recommend TradeDay to any futures trader that is looking to get funding.

I will be fair with Trade Day, as I signed up for the highest tier Evaluation program possible, but was disappointed in my experience.I was told by an auto-response email that I failed after day 2, due to an open trade outside their allotted time frame; a trade to which I never entered. As a result, not only did I lose +$1,300 progress towards my Challenge, I also wasted $600, actual cash, in the process by signing up. And while submitting a ticket to review, was politely told to by James, the CEO, to (by expression) ‘buzz off’.I get it, it’s a business and they have rules and revenue to make. But it didn’t sit well with me, after I used their recommended Tradovate platform. And even after pointing out that I exited via their recommended Tradovate app, received the response ‘you shouldn’t trade via the app’. Again, not looking to bash them, as from what I’ve heard, they are a fair business and likely good people. But I didn’t experience as such, and wanted to relay for those giving them consideration.Wish I could say better, however, that was just my honest experience.

One of the things that sets Tradeday apart from other prop trading firms is their focus on providing personalized support to their traders. Whether you need help with a specific trading strategy or simply have questions about the market, Steve or James are always available to provide guidance and advice in the forum. This level of support is invaluable to traders, especially those who are just starting out and may be feeling overwhelmed by the complexity of the markets. But even if you already know how to trade and pass the eval there is most certainly no “hidden rule” like that one guy from here said. They want you to succeed and help you in every form within their capabilities.

Fair and Seems Legit. They have the best rules I have seen. I have been trading prop firms for almost 10 years. Only 10 days. No Daily Loss Limit. End of Day Drawdown, and you have all your contracts both in evaluation and in Funded. As soon as I am funded. I will continue to give updates. Final plus is that they give you live account when you’re funded. They take real risk on traders, and that means they can pay quickly. Tradovate has been excellent. There’s no lag, or any issues that I have experienced in the platform. Don’t have to deal with Rithmic issues either.

Unlike the last prop company I was with, the max drawdown was not a penalty of cancellation of trading permission. The cancellation of trading permission wasn’t clear to me in the rules. What a waste of my capital. I also sent two tickets of inquiry on another issue, but never heard back on them.

Tradovate had issues where the platform was bugging and I couldn’t see my active orders. Tradeday responded very fast and professionally, but they couldn’t offer me anything since the issue was “local”. I don’t hold anything against tradeday as I tried the firm due to a friend’s recommendation and the content they provide is great but I do feel as if the situation is somewhat unfair since it was not my fault, but Tradovate’s fault. Users from other prop firms also reported the same issue during the past week but was given a free reset.

TradeDay is built by trader to help trader. Yes, they might be a bit expensive but I prefer to choose them because of their transparent and real “LIVE” account. Therefore, we as trader have nothing to worried about after passing evaluation. Furthermore, you can withdraw even on the first day of your “LIVE” account profit once you get funded. I believe the most that attract me was all “LIVE” order are direct to regulated open market exchanges, for instance like CME, CBOT, NYMEX etc. The only downside to me is they don’t have a one time fees after transition to LIVE and we as trader have to fully bear on market data fees. It’s my first experience with a new revolution on prop firm because we don’t need to pay anything when I work for ground firms (tools like Bloomberg Professional etc.). It’s ok tho since we have much much higher profit sharing percentage with this relatively new industry and higher EOD DD risk tolerance compare to those ground (Usually only 3-5% max per annum).I advise those who really have a good strategy should give it a shot, don’t go for evaluation blindly and don’t know what you’re doing. Back to 10 years ago when I need an employment with ground firms, you usually need to provide at least 2 years of consistency track record. In nowadays online prop firm, you just need to pay a small fees and proof your ability in minimum of 7-15 trading days, it was such a great deal in my opinion.Good luck guys and happy trading. Well done TradeDay.

Currently in one of TradeDay’s Evaluation accounts. I do not have much to say considering everything has been normal so far, no issues, no back and forth with customer support, everything has been smooth. With that said I am both impressed with everyone else’s reviews and excited to see if TradeDay lives up to all the positive feedback I have come across. In fact TradeDay was even highly recommended to me from a friend/neighbor. Evaluation rules are definitely very fair while still being difficult enough to weed out any gamblers. I will save most judgement after I get more experience and finish the evaluation. From a first hand experience so far however, TradeDay has been smooth and has not given me any issues. Will definitely update this review once evaluation is done and more experience with them is gained. Best of luck to everyone on your trading journey!

I am fairly new to the trading game, been investing for a while, but only started trading futures recently. Having a research heavy background, I looked through a ton of prop trading firms. After all that, TradeDay was an easy choice! With nearly half a century of trading between them, Steve, James, and Tera bring an incredible amount of experience to the table. There is a massive library of material they offer with your membership, not to mention the LiveSquawk updates and daily Bull vs. Bear live webinar, giving you the latest news releases, some insight behind them, and a professional Technical Analysts take on what the market is doing that day. In addition to the courses and other resources, they also offer regular live streams and have a great trading community with very active members who, like TradeDay, are genuinely interested in your success, and are capable of taking even the greenest of traders to profit generating machines! And if that is not enough, their service and support is top tier! (Was not expecting Saturday morning replies to questions!)They are the only prop trading firm that I know of to offer the Trailing Max Drawdown, which is calculated using the End-Of-Day trading account balance, producing a truer picture of your success while trading, and decreasing the likelihood of a bad day blowing the account, provided you practice responsible risk-reward strategies (nothing can prevent catastrophe while revenge trading!). And, once your account is funded, the Max Drawdown stays at that level for the life of your account. They are the only ones that I know of that let you keep 100% of the first $10K that you make, and 90% of your profits thereafter!If you are looking to jump in seconds after news releases to scalp the chaotic jumps in the market, this is NOT the firm for you! They are not interested in funding you for that, and let’s face it: if you had the massive AI driven smart computers to really take advantage of this, you are most likely not reading this review! There are only a handful of news releases they won’t let you trade on, and even those, they only ask you to wait 2 minutes before and after, before taking a position on it.Outside of that, there is not much that I came across that they didn’t offer or allow.Sign up for the free E-book and 14-day trial, or jump right in on one of their challenges! Invest in yourself, join the Best Prop Trading Firm in the business, today!

I am currently doing the evaluation and so far so good. The rules are the fairest I’ve seen upon my research, I love how the TDM is at day close, huge difference. The customer support has been great, replies within minutes every time. I think my longest wait was 30 minutes and since that, I think my longest wait was 10 minutes. So very quick replies across the board which is awesome. I did a 1 on 1 call with Steve, he’s very knowledgeable and really went into depth with my questions. I have been trading for a long time and my strategy works well, but there is always room for improvement. So talking with someone with his level of knowledge was great to see where and how I can improve to be even better. I feel I will get funded and I look forward to a long relationship with tradeday. If we succeed, they succeed, so our best interest is theirs as well.

I believe the tools that TradeDay provides will give you the “edge” to succeed in this business. One of the things I’m most concerned with is loosing the hard earned money I’ve saved over the past 40 plus years. I’m into my 70’s now and I can feel more relaxed knowing I’m trading with someone else’s capital. It’s important to note that just because I’m using someone else’s capital doesn’t mean I should learn not to train properly in managing risk and learning HOW to trade. TradeDay gives me all the resources I need to succeed while providing me a way to make money, without loosing all of my own hard earned investments. I’m really comfortable trading on the Tradovate platform and I also use NinjaTrader to place my trades, even in evaluation stage. I can now really imagine myself becoming successful and I feel confident that TradeDay will be the primary reason for my success. I want to thank James and Steve for making this possible for me and so many new Future traders.

I will be fair with Trade Day, as I signed up for the highest tier Evaluation program possible, but was disappointed in my experience.I was told by an auto-response email that I failed after day 2, due to an open trade outside their allotted time frame; a trade to which I never entered. As a result, not only did I lose +$1,300 progress towards my Challenge, I also wasted $600, actual cash, in the process by signing up. And while submitting a ticket to review, was politely told to by James, the CEO, to (by expression) ‘buzz off’.I get it, it’s a business and they have rules and revenue to make. But it didn’t sit well with me, after I used their recommended Tradovate platform. And even after pointing out that I exited via their recommended Tradovate app, received the response ‘you shouldn’t trade via the app’. Again, not looking to bash them, as from what I’ve heard, they are a fair business and likely good people. But I didn’t experience as such, and wanted to relay for those giving them consideration.Wish I could say better, however, that was just my honest experience.

One of the things that sets Tradeday apart from other prop trading firms is their focus on providing personalized support to their traders. Whether you need help with a specific trading strategy or simply have questions about the market, Steve or James are always available to provide guidance and advice in the forum. This level of support is invaluable to traders, especially those who are just starting out and may be feeling overwhelmed by the complexity of the markets. But even if you already know how to trade and pass the eval there is most certainly no “hidden rule” like that one guy from here said. They want you to succeed and help you in every form within their capabilities.

Incredible Support, great learning content on their platform. They really are day traders so the insight that they can provide surpass many other firms. They are honest and dont lie about what do you need to be a good trader.

Fair and Seems Legit. They have the best rules I have seen. I have been trading prop firms for almost 10 years. Only 10 days. No Daily Loss Limit. End of Day Drawdown, and you have all your contracts both in evaluation and in Funded. As soon as I am funded. I will continue to give updates. Final plus is that they give you live account when you’re funded. They take real risk on traders, and that means they can pay quickly. Tradovate has been excellent. There’s no lag, or any issues that I have experienced in the platform. Don’t have to deal with Rithmic issues either.

There are a lot of Prop firm choices now, some making changes weekly to better their service, reducing costs for challenges and higher/faster payouts.Tradeday’s issue for me is their cost is too high compared with other ‘Very Similar’ competitors. Look around and see for yourself.

Unlike the last prop company I was with, the max drawdown was not a penalty of cancellation of trading permission. The cancellation of trading permission wasn’t clear to me in the rules. What a waste of my capital. I also sent two tickets of inquiry on another issue, but never heard back on them.

Multiple issues with tradovate over the last week (check tradovates site and twitter) Tradeday poor customer service and terrible refund policy. I had hit the profit target and traded for a total of 5 days, all of this effort was lost and they only offered a free reset. DONT BOTHER, GO ELSEWHERE

Tradovate had issues where the platform was bugging and I couldn’t see my active orders. Tradeday responded very fast and professionally, but they couldn’t offer me anything since the issue was “local”. I don’t hold anything against tradeday as I tried the firm due to a friend’s recommendation and the content they provide is great but I do feel as if the situation is somewhat unfair since it was not my fault, but Tradovate’s fault. Users from other prop firms also reported the same issue during the past week but was given a free reset.

Support was good but everything else aren’t that good.The main reason I won’t continue my challenge because of max draw down is too small compare with other prop firms.I’m doing 4 challenges at the same time but my Tradeday challenge reached limit within a week with trading 1 contract only.

Been a great experience thus far. The evaluation is straightforward and most importantly, the rules are easy to understand and abide by. The resources provided by the Trade Day team are well rounded. They do a great job at covering the foundations/basics along with giving you a deeper understanding of the technicals, fundamentals, and psychology.Steve and James are extremely responsive via all modes of contact. Through their regular engagement you get the sense they are really trying to help you as a trader. Proud to be apart of the Trade Day Funded Trader team.

TradeDay is built by trader to help trader. Yes, they might be a bit expensive but I prefer to choose them because of their transparent and real “LIVE” account. Therefore, we as trader have nothing to worried about after passing evaluation. Furthermore, you can withdraw even on the first day of your “LIVE” account profit once you get funded. I believe the most that attract me was all “LIVE” order are direct to regulated open market exchanges, for instance like CME, CBOT, NYMEX etc. The only downside to me is they don’t have a one time fees after transition to LIVE and we as trader have to fully bear on market data fees. It’s my first experience with a new revolution on prop firm because we don’t need to pay anything when I work for ground firms (tools like Bloomberg Professional etc.). It’s ok tho since we have much much higher profit sharing percentage with this relatively new industry and higher EOD DD risk tolerance compare to those ground (Usually only 3-5% max per annum).I advise those who really have a good strategy should give it a shot, don’t go for evaluation blindly and don’t know what you’re doing. Back to 10 years ago when I need an employment with ground firms, you usually need to provide at least 2 years of consistency track record. In nowadays online prop firm, you just need to pay a small fees and proof your ability in minimum of 7-15 trading days, it was such a great deal in my opinion.Good luck guys and happy trading. Well done TradeDay.

Currently in one of TradeDay’s Evaluation accounts. I do not have much to say considering everything has been normal so far, no issues, no back and forth with customer support, everything has been smooth. With that said I am both impressed with everyone else’s reviews and excited to see if TradeDay lives up to all the positive feedback I have come across. In fact TradeDay was even highly recommended to me from a friend/neighbor. Evaluation rules are definitely very fair while still being difficult enough to weed out any gamblers. I will save most judgement after I get more experience and finish the evaluation. From a first hand experience so far however, TradeDay has been smooth and has not given me any issues. Will definitely update this review once evaluation is done and more experience with them is gained. Best of luck to everyone on your trading journey!

Haven’t passed the eval yet but customer service is great and very timely in their responses. My experience with tradovate and integration with tradingview have been flawless as well. Will come back to update this once I’ve had more time with them.

I first signed up for the free trial, the resources in there a amazing. It dosnt seem like a place where they just want your money every month. I get a genuine feeling of them wanting you to become a better trader. The free courses and community once you become a member are sooo good. I was also having issues logging into tradeovate when I signed up for my evaluation and they were answering back my emails within minutes and helping me as much as possible. I feel REALLY good about trade day. Highly reccomend

I am fairly new to the trading game, been investing for a while, but only started trading futures recently. Having a research heavy background, I looked through a ton of prop trading firms. After all that, TradeDay was an easy choice! With nearly half a century of trading between them, Steve, James, and Tera bring an incredible amount of experience to the table. There is a massive library of material they offer with your membership, not to mention the LiveSquawk updates and daily Bull vs. Bear live webinar, giving you the latest news releases, some insight behind them, and a professional Technical Analysts take on what the market is doing that day. In addition to the courses and other resources, they also offer regular live streams and have a great trading community with very active members who, like TradeDay, are genuinely interested in your success, and are capable of taking even the greenest of traders to profit generating machines! And if that is not enough, their service and support is top tier! (Was not expecting Saturday morning replies to questions!)They are the only prop trading firm that I know of to offer the Trailing Max Drawdown, which is calculated using the End-Of-Day trading account balance, producing a truer picture of your success while trading, and decreasing the likelihood of a bad day blowing the account, provided you practice responsible risk-reward strategies (nothing can prevent catastrophe while revenge trading!). And, once your account is funded, the Max Drawdown stays at that level for the life of your account. They are the only ones that I know of that let you keep 100% of the first $10K that you make, and 90% of your profits thereafter!If you are looking to jump in seconds after news releases to scalp the chaotic jumps in the market, this is NOT the firm for you! They are not interested in funding you for that, and let’s face it: if you had the massive AI driven smart computers to really take advantage of this, you are most likely not reading this review! There are only a handful of news releases they won’t let you trade on, and even those, they only ask you to wait 2 minutes before and after, before taking a position on it.Outside of that, there is not much that I came across that they didn’t offer or allow.Sign up for the free E-book and 14-day trial, or jump right in on one of their challenges! Invest in yourself, join the Best Prop Trading Firm in the business, today!

I am currently doing the evaluation and so far so good. The rules are the fairest I’ve seen upon my research, I love how the TDM is at day close, huge difference. The customer support has been great, replies within minutes every time. I think my longest wait was 30 minutes and since that, I think my longest wait was 10 minutes. So very quick replies across the board which is awesome. I did a 1 on 1 call with Steve, he’s very knowledgeable and really went into depth with my questions. I have been trading for a long time and my strategy works well, but there is always room for improvement. So talking with someone with his level of knowledge was great to see where and how I can improve to be even better. I feel I will get funded and I look forward to a long relationship with tradeday. If we succeed, they succeed, so our best interest is theirs as well.

I believe the tools that TradeDay provides will give you the “edge” to succeed in this business. One of the things I’m most concerned with is loosing the hard earned money I’ve saved over the past 40 plus years. I’m into my 70’s now and I can feel more relaxed knowing I’m trading with someone else’s capital. It’s important to note that just because I’m using someone else’s capital doesn’t mean I should learn not to train properly in managing risk and learning HOW to trade. TradeDay gives me all the resources I need to succeed while providing me a way to make money, without loosing all of my own hard earned investments. I’m really comfortable trading on the Tradovate platform and I also use NinjaTrader to place my trades, even in evaluation stage. I can now really imagine myself becoming successful and I feel confident that TradeDay will be the primary reason for my success. I want to thank James and Steve for making this possible for me and so many new Future traders.
