22 challenges from 5 firms, every rule checked on the firm's own site. One trader, 20,000 simulated attempts per plan, ranked by what getting funded actually costs.
Independent. Rules checked on each firm's own site. Ranking is never paid for.
For a trader with 45% win rate, 1:2 R:R, 1% risk per trade, 2 trades a day, the cheapest routes to a funded $100K account are FundedNext Stellar Lite ($439), The5%ers High Stakes New ($446), Alpha Capital Alpha Pro 10% ($468). The cheapest fee is not the cheapest route: a plan you fail more often costs more in retries.
