Funded Trading Plus
Forex / CFD
A London firm founded in late 2021 and bought by Instant Funding in May 2026, Funded Trading Plus pays every 7 days on its 1-Step Express and Instant programs, with the split rising from 80 to 100% and scaling up to $5 million.

Take Profit Trader
Futures · Trustpilot 4.3/5
Founded in Florida in late 2021, Take Profit Trader runs a three-tier path — Test, then PRO, then PRO+ on the live market — with withdrawals available from day one on a funded account. It excludes no countries, which is rare. The point to watch is the drawdown type changing between tiers, which catches many traders out.

Our analysis
The price question
Funded Trading Plus opens at $89 against $150 for Take Profit Trader, a substantial gap on the smallest account. At the reference size of 100 K the comparison is $549 for Funded Trading Plus against $330 for Take Profit Trader. The headline fee is rarely the real cost, though: what matters is the price of a reset after a failed attempt, whether the fee comes back on the first payout, and whether an activation fee appears when you move to a funded account. Compare those three lines in the table above before deciding on price alone.
How the loss limit behaves
Funded Trading Plus applies a trailing intraday drawdown capped at 6 %, with a 4 % daily limit. Take Profit Trader applies a trailing (end of day) drawdown. 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.
Getting paid
Funded Trading Plus keeps 100 % of profits, then pays Tous les 7 jours sur 1-Step Express et Instant ; tous les 10 jours sur 2-Step Classic. Take Profit Trader keeps 90 % of profits, allows a first withdrawal after 0 days, then pays quotidien, a la demande des le premier jour. 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.
Tooling differences
Funded Trading Plus is the only one of the two to offer mt5, ctrader, dxtrade, match-trader. Take Profit Trader covers ninjatrader, tradingview, tradovate, rithmic, quantower, 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.
How much history each firm has
Our trust pillar scores them 74/100 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.
