Phidias Prop Firm vs Take Profit Trader, round by round

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

Round 1Take Profit Trader

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
Phidias Prop Firm$215
Take Profit Trader$85

Take Profit Trader costs $85 all-in, $130 less than Phidias Prop Firm at $215. That includes the $149 activation fee Phidias Prop Firm charges once you pass.

Round 2Phidias Prop Firm

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
Phidias Prop Firm
End-of-Day
$2,500 of room
Take Profit Trader
End-of-Day
$2,000 of room

Round 4Take Profit Trader

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
Phidias Prop Firm13 days
Take Profit Trader4 days

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 5Take Profit Trader

Payday

How it is scored: More money from one payout wins
Phidias Prop Firm$1,60080% split
Take Profit TraderNo cap80% split
