My Funded Futures vs Topstep, round by round

The five things that decide whether a funded account works for you, in the order you live them.

Round 1Topstep

Cost to get funded

The price after the discount code, plus any activation fee. Most traders fail at least once, so the cheaper account is also cheaper to try again.

How it is scored: Lower all-in price wins
My Funded Futures$105
Topstep$95

Topstep costs $95 all-in, $10 less than My Funded Futures at $105.

Round 2Tie

Room to trade

The drawdown is the line that ends the account. A line that moves less, with more room under it, means a normal pullback does not blow the account.

How it is scored: Static beats end-of-day beats intraday, then more room wins
My Funded Futures
End-of-Day
$2,000 of room
Topstep
End-of-Day
$2,000 of room

Both use an end-of-day drawdown, which only moves when the trading day closes, and both let you lose $2,000 before the account fails.

Round 3Topstep

Rules that can end it

These are the rules that fail accounts or hold back payouts even when you are in profit. Fewer tripwires, fewer ways to lose the account.

How it is scored: Fewer of these rules wins

Topstep has one of these rules. My Funded Futures adds a payout buffer.

Round 4My Funded Futures

Speed to first payout

Days from buying the account to asking for your first payout, if everything goes right.

How it is scored: Fewer days wins
My Funded Futures3 days
Topstep7 days

My Funded Futures can pay you after 3 days at the earliest: 2 days to pass, then 1 calendar day to the first payout. Topstep takes 7: 2 days to pass, then 5 profitable days to the first payout.

Each firm counts payout days its own way: a profitable day needs a winning day, a trading day just a trade, a calendar day nothing at all.

Round 5My Funded Futures

Payday

The most one payout can put in your pocket: the payout cap times your share. A high split means little if the cap is low.

How it is scored: More money from one payout wins
My Funded FuturesNo cap90% split
Topstep$1,80090% split

My Funded Futures: no cap on a payout, and you keep 90%. Topstep: up to $2,000 a payout at 90%, so $1,800 to you.
