Best prop firms, ranked on real cost and rules The fine print,
scored.
On our score out of 100, the best futures prop firm is DayTraders.com (78), ahead of Topstep (71) and Alpha Futures (64), and WeMasterTrade (69) ranks first among forex firms. WeMasterTrade and Audacity Capital tie on 69, and WeMasterTrade goes first on its lower real cost per $1,000 of max loss ($96.00 against $104.90). We don’t call WeMasterTrade the best forex prop firm yet: the title needs a published founding year and 12 months operating, and WeMasterTrade’s founding year isn’t on record.

Real cost: the fee × 3 (or 3 months on a monthly plan) plus activation. Per $1K: that cost per $1,000 of max loss. A “+” means the activation fee isn’t on record, so the figure is a floor. A dash means it isn’t in our data yet.

Best forex prop firms
Forex firms, ranked apart from futures on the same score out of 100. Each is scored on its best account size, which the table names; open a row to see how.
Read forex rule scores as a guide. Forex rules come from curated rule flags in our catalog, yes-or-no and without a source linked for each rule, where futures rules come from each firm’s own pages. A forex firm’s rules score is only as right as its flags. A forex minimum of 0 trading days is also stored the same way as a minimum we haven’t recorded, so “None” can mean either. Real cost, split, years and Trustpilot are worked out the same way for both markets.

Real cost: the fee × 3 (or 3 months on a monthly plan) plus activation. Per $1K: that cost per $1,000 of max loss. A “+” means the activation fee isn’t on record, so the figure is a floor. A dash means it isn’t in our data yet.
Why the forex #1 is #1
WeMasterTrade is #1 of 43 ranked forex firms with 69 of 100, scored on its $100K account.
Against Audacity Capital (#2, 69), WeMasterTrade is ahead on real cost (25 points to 18) and rules (24 to 21); behind on years operating (0 to 10); level on profit split and Trustpilot. They tie on 69, and WeMasterTrade goes first on its lower real cost per $1,000 of max loss ($96.00 against $104.90).
Against The5ers (#3, 68), WeMasterTrade is ahead on real cost (25 points to 12) and profit split (20 to 12); behind on years operating (0 to 10) and Trustpilot (0 to 10); level on rules. WeMasterTrade finishes 1 point ahead.
How the score works
One score out of 100, from what each firm publishes plus its public Trustpilot rating. A figure the firm doesn’t publish scores 0, so a gap can only cost a firm points.
A firm is ranked once an account publishes its fee and max loss and no more than 2 of the 7 rules on that account are unpublished. Its evaluation fees must also have been confirmed in the last 45 days, by hand or by a read of its own pricing page that matched every evaluation fee we hold, and the rest of its data checked by hand in the last 90.
The full method, with every band- Real cost30 pointsThe fee × 3 plus activation, per $1,000 of max loss: $75 or less earns all 30, over $300 earns 0.
- Rules30 points7 rules, each Easy, Standard or Read; one the firm doesn’t publish scores 0.
- Profit split20 points90% or more to you earns all 20; below 70% earns 0.
- Years operating10 pointsOne point a year since the founding year, up to 10.
- Trustpilot10 points4.5 or more earns all 10, counted from 100 reviews up.
Not ranked yet, and why
17 of the 80 firms we track don’t pass the gate yet, or trade neither market we rank. Each keeps its page and its score, and a futures or forex firm joins its list once what’s missing is published or confirmed.

Questions about the ranking
- What is the best prop firm right now?
- On our score, DayTraders.com leads the futures list with 78 of 100, and WeMasterTrade leads the forex list with 69 of 100. WeMasterTrade and Audacity Capital tie on 69, and WeMasterTrade goes first on its lower real cost per $1,000 of max loss ($96.00 against $104.90). We don’t call WeMasterTrade the best forex prop firm yet: the title needs a published founding year and 12 months operating, and WeMasterTrade’s founding year isn’t on record. The best firm for you still depends on the plan you’d buy, so every row opens to show what its score is built from.
- How is the score worked out?
- Five parts, out of 100: real cost (30), rules (30), profit split (20), years operating (10) and Trustpilot (10). Real cost is the evaluation fee × 3 plus the activation fee, per $1,000 of max loss. A figure the firm doesn’t publish scores 0, so a gap can only cost a firm points.
- Do prop firms pay to be ranked here?
- No. No firm pays to be listed or ranked, there are no affiliate links or commissions, and no firm can change its own figures. We earn from Pro and Elite subscriptions.
- How current is this ranking?
- It was rebuilt on 6 Oct 2026 from firm data last checked on 5 Oct 2026. Each row shows when its firm’s data was last checked by hand. A firm leaves the ranking when its evaluation fees haven’t been confirmed in 45 days, by hand or by a read of its own pricing page that matched every evaluation fee we hold, or the rest of its data, activation fees and rules included, hasn’t been checked by hand in 90.
- Why isn’t a firm I know ranked?
- 17 of the 80 firms we track aren’t ranked yet. A firm is ranked when one of its accounts publishes a fee and a max loss and no more than 2 of the 7 rules on that account are unpublished, its evaluation fees were confirmed in the last 45 days, and the rest of its data was checked by hand in the last 90. We rank futures and forex firms only. Every unranked firm is listed on this page with its reasons.
- Why are futures and forex ranked separately?
- Futures plans set their fees and limits in dollars, plan by plan; forex accounts set theirs as a share of the account size. In one list they’d be compared on unlike terms, so each market has its own. Forex rule scores also come from our curated catalog, without a source for each rule, as the forex table says.
