86 Coming in at number 1, The5ers has been operating since 2016 and scores 86/100 on our scale. Entry starts at $39 for a 2-phase evaluation. The risk envelope is a static drawdown capped at 10 %, with 5 % allowed per day. Funded traders keep 100 % of profits, with a first withdrawal available after 14 days. Notable freedoms: no time limit, no consistency rule. Available on mt5, ctrader, tradingview.
Founded in Israel in 2016, The5ers is one of the oldest forex prop firms still operating. Its strongest asset is the rulebook: static drawdown across every program, no time limit and no consistency rule. The tradable universe stays narrow, though — forex, indices, metals and futures, with no crypto and no equities.

85 Ranked 2 on this list, FundedNext has been operating since 2022 and scores 85/100 on our scale. Entry starts at $59.99 for a 2-phase evaluation. The risk envelope is a static drawdown capped at 10 %, with 5 % allowed per day. Funded traders keep 95 % of profits, with a first withdrawal available after 5 days. Notable freedoms: no time limit, no consistency rule, expert advisors allowed. Available on mt4, mt5, ctrader, match-trader.
On the forex and CFD side, FundedNext runs just two routes: Stellar 1-Step (10% target, 6% max loss) and Stellar 2-Step (8% then 5%, 10% max loss). Both use static drawdown, carry no deadline and come with refundable fees. Pricing is on the high side, and the headline 95% split needs a paid option — the contractual base is 80%.

83 Ranked 3 on this list, City Traders Imperium has been operating since 2018 and scores 83/100 on our scale. Entry starts at $29 on an instantly funded account. The risk envelope is a trailing intraday drawdown capped at 6 %. Funded traders keep 100 % of profits, with a first withdrawal available after 7 days. Notable freedoms: no time limit, no consistency rule, expert advisors allowed, news trading allowed. Available on mt5, match-trader.
City Traders Imperium has funded forex traders since 2018 through four routes — 1-Step, 2-Step, Instant Funding and Direct Funding — with no time limit and entry from $29. The profit split starts at 80% and can reach 100%, but the 1-Step allows only 5% trailing drawdown and every trade must carry a stop loss.

76 In 4th place, BrightFunded has been operating since 2023 and scores 76/100 on our scale. Entry starts at €47 for a 2-phase evaluation. The risk envelope is a static drawdown capped at 8 %, with 4 % allowed per day. Funded traders keep 100 % of profits, with a first withdrawal available after 30 days. Notable freedoms: no time limit, no consistency rule, news trading allowed. Available on mt5, ctrader, dxtrade.
Set up in 2023 by a Dutch team and operated out of Dubai, BrightFunded keeps its rulebook short: no consistency rule, no time limit, static drawdown on both 2-Step plans. The model leans instead on paid add-ons — fee refund, 90% split, waived minimum days — and the first payout only lands 30 days after the first trade.

75 Coming in at number 5, ThinkCapital has been operating since 2024 and scores 75/100 on our scale. Entry starts at $39 on an instantly funded account. Funded traders keep 90 % of profits, with a first withdrawal available after 14 days. Notable freedoms: no time limit, no consistency rule, expert advisors allowed. Available on tradingview, mt5.
Launched in 2024, ThinkCapital is the prop trading brand of broker ThinkMarkets, whose liquidity and technology it uses. That backing gives it five well-differentiated programs and a maximum allocation of one million dollars. Two reservations weigh on it: news trading is only available through a paid add-on, and Trustpilot removed its rating over fake reviews.

72 In 6th place, Apex Trader Funding has been operating since 2021 and scores 72/100 on our scale. The risk envelope is a trailing intraday drawdown capped at 5 %. Funded traders keep 100 % of profits, with a first withdrawal available after 5 days. Notable freedoms: no consistency rule. Available on rithmic, tradovate.
Apex Trader Funding trades futures only, on Rithmic and Tradovate, through a single 30 calendar-day evaluation with a 6% target. The Apex 4.0 rework of March 2026 swapped the monthly subscription for a one-off fee and added an end-of-day trailing drawdown alongside the intraday version. First payout comes after five qualifying trading days.

72 Coming in at number 7, Moneta Funded has been operating since 2025 and scores 72/100 on our scale. The risk envelope is a static drawdown capped at 6 %, with 3 % allowed per day. Funded traders keep 100 % of profits, with a first withdrawal available after 14 days. Notable freedoms: no time limit, no consistency rule. Available on mt5, match-trader.
Moneta Funded was launched in late 2025 by broker Moneta Markets' group, advertising an 88 % profit split and allocation of up to two million dollars. Attractive terms on paper, but the firm is too recent to have a payout track record, and its site blocks automated verification of its pricing.

59 Ranked 8 on this list, Audacity Capital has been operating since 2012 and scores 59/100 on our scale. Entry starts at $49 on an instantly funded account. The risk envelope is a static drawdown capped at 10 %, with 5 % allowed per day. Funded traders keep 90 % of profits, with a first withdrawal available after 14 days. Notable freedoms: no time limit, no consistency rule, expert advisors allowed, news trading allowed. Available on mt5, dxtrade.
Audacity Capital has run funded programs from London since 2012, which makes it one of the oldest forex prop firms still trading, yet its legal entity is registered in the Comoros with no UK or European regulation. Conditions stay permissive — 15% static drawdown, no time limit, payouts every 14 days — while the Trustpilot rating has been suspended since 2026 over fake reviews and disputed payout refusals.

59 Coming in at number 9, FundedElite has been operating since 2023 and scores 59/100 on our scale. Entry starts at $19 for a 2-phase evaluation. The risk envelope is a static drawdown capped at 8 %, with 4 % allowed per day. Funded traders keep 95 % of profits, with a first withdrawal available after 14 days. Notable freedoms: no time limit, no consistency rule, expert advisors allowed, news trading allowed. Available on mt5, tradelocker, match-trader, ctrader.
FundedElite is an Italian prop firm founded in late 2023, running static drawdown across all six of its challenge formats with no time limit attached. The sticking point sits elsewhere: Trustpilot withheld its score in August 2026 after finding a guidelines breach and removing fake reviews among the 735 published. No payout incident is documented on its side.
10
59 Ranked 10 on this list, OFP Funding and scores 59/100 on our scale. Funded traders keep 100 % of profits. Notable freedoms: no time limit, no consistency rule, news trading allowed. Available on ctrader, match-trader, tradelocker.
OFP Funding specialises in instant funding, with no evaluation, no profit target and an advertised 100 % profit split. This unusual positioning comes with signals that call for caution: Trustpilot has suspended the firm's rating, and 36 % of its reviews are one star. We classify it as under watch.
