Choose Elite Trader Funding if… Choose My Funded Futures if… Elite Trader Funding applies a trailing intraday drawdown. My Funded Futures applies a trailing (end of day) drawdown capped at 4 %. This is the single most consequential difference between the two. A static drawdown is measured once, from the starting balance, and never moves; a trailing drawdown follows your equity upward, so a winning streak raises the floor you can no longer fall below. Intraday trailing is stricter still, because it tracks unrealised peaks reached inside the session — profit you never actually banked can permanently raise your loss threshold.
Elite Trader Funding keeps 100 % of profits, allows a first withdrawal after 8 days, then pays On demand, approved the same day. My Funded Futures keeps 90 % of profits, allows a first withdrawal after 1 days, then pays Rapid: every 24 h (minimum $500); Builder: every 48 h; Pro: 14-day cycle (minimum $1,000, capped at $100,000 per cycle). Payout frequency deserves as much attention as the split itself: a slightly lower share paid every two weeks compounds faster than a headline percentage locked behind a monthly cycle and a long first-withdrawal delay.
Elite Trader Funding is the only one of the two to offer rithmic. My Funded Futures covers quantower, volumetrica, which its rival does not. Platform choice is not cosmetic: order execution, available order types and the reliability of your automation all depend on it, and switching mid-evaluation is rarely possible.
Elite Trader Funding has been running since 2022, 1 years longer than My Funded Futures. On Trustpilot they sit at 3.8/5 and 4.9/5 respectively. Our trust pillar scores them 67/100 and 83/100, which weighs age, corporate transparency and public payout evidence. In an industry with no financial regulator overseeing these evaluations, longevity and a verifiable payout history are the closest thing to a guarantee.
