How to read it. A lower loss limit is stricter. A higher profit split means you keep more of what you earn. Static max loss never moves. Trailing max loss moves up as your balance grows. End-of-day trailing moves up only once a day, at the daily close.
“Not published” means the firm does not state that rule. “Some values from review sites” means at least one figure comes from independent review sites, not the firm’s own pages. Rules change often: open a firm for sources and confirm on its site before you buy.

Rule-by-rule tables, where each firm is stronger, and the sources behind every number.
How we compare
- 01
We use each firm’s official website, rules and help center first; independent review sites only when official pages were unavailable, and we say so.
- 02
We compare entry-level published plans. Promotions and discount codes are excluded.
- 03
Where a rule is not published, we write “not published” rather than guess.
- 04
QATS figures come from our live plan catalog — the same numbers you see on the Challenges page.

Perpetual futures track exchange order books, trade 24/7 and charge funding between longs and shorts. Crypto CFDs at forex prop firms are priced by a broker feed and usually carry 1:1 to 1:5 leverage.
04How often is this comparison updated?
