TradeDay review

Verdict

TradeDay was founded in Chicago in 2020 by two former institutional market professionals, and that background shows in the rulebook: no daily loss limit, news trading and scalping allowed, and withdrawals available from day one. The May 2026 rework dropped static drawdown accounts in favour of two paths, Quick Pay and Fast Pass.

TradeDay is a good fit for active futures traders who want to cash out quickly and trade news releases without a daily limit in the way. It is a much weaker fit for anyone whose results rest on a few decisive sessions, because of the consistency rule, or who targets an allocation above $150,000.

Pros

  • Withdrawals available from day one on a funded account, from $250 per request.
  • No daily loss limit: risk is framed by the maximum drawdown alone.
  • News trading and scalping are explicitly permitted.
  • Choice between intraday and end-of-day trailing drawdown at checkout, across four platforms.
  • Only six restricted countries, and named founders with a verifiable trading-floor background.

Cons

  • 30 % consistency rule on Quick Pay, one of the strictest in the futures segment.
  • The profit split starts at 50 % on the first $4,000 in a Quick Pay Funded Sim account.
  • No scaling plan: allocation stays capped at $150,000.
  • Non-refundable fees and a monthly subscription model, like the rest of the futures segment.
  • Weekend positions are prohibited: everything must be closed before the weekly close.

Frequently asked questions

Can you trust TradeDay?
TradeDay has been operating since 2020, which is a meaningful track record in an industry where most firms are younger than three years. Its Trustpilot rating stands at 4.6/5 across 1,426 reviews. We score it 80/100, with 85/100 on the trust and track record pillar specifically.
What is the entry price at TradeDay?
The cheapest TradeDay evaluation starts at $131. Account sizes range from 50 K to 150 K, and the fee scales with the size. The fee is not refundable.
How do TradeDay payouts work?
The first withdrawal can be requested after 0 days on a funded account. Payouts are then a la demande des le premier jour, minimum 250 $ par retrait. The trader keeps 80 % of profits, rising to 90 % with scaling.
What drawdown rules apply at TradeDay?
TradeDay uses a trailing intraday drawdown. A trailing drawdown follows the account equity upward, so the loss threshold rises with your gains — check exactly when it updates before trading.
Does TradeDay accept US traders?
Yes. TradeDay does not list the United States among its restricted countries. It does exclude AF, AL, RU, IR, CU, and VE. Restriction lists change, so confirm on the firm's terms page before paying.
What are the main rules of the TradeDay challenge?
There is no time limit to complete the evaluation phases. A 30 % consistency rule applies: no single day may exceed that share of total profit. A minimum of 5 trading days is required.
