The list: 4 plans, A to Z
Every futures plan in our catalog on this list, by firm. It isn’t a ranking: for that, see the futures ranking and the cheapest list.
Only 4 plans are on this list so far. A list this short says more about our data than about the firms, so it stays out of search results until at least 5 are.

Real cost at $50K: the fee × 3 (or 3 months on a monthly plan) plus activation; an instant-funding plan is one purchase plus activation, marked “once”. A plan with no $50K size on record shows the sizes it has instead. A “+” means the activation fee isn’t on record, so the figure is a floor. Firm page we cite: a page on the firm’s own site that our rule data cites, not the source of the row’s figures. A dash means it isn’t in our data yet.
How this list is built
A static drawdown is a fixed floor: the account fails if your balance falls to it, and it doesn’t rise however much you make. A trailing drawdown rises with your highest balance, at each day’s close or during the day, so the profit you make doesn’t widen your cushion; under a static floor every dollar of profit does. Compare the dollar amount too: a static floor can sit closer to the starting balance than a trailing one.
Each row is one plan, read from our catalog, and the rows run A to Z by firm: this is a list, not a ranking. Real cost is what it takes to get funded at the published prices, quoted at $50K: the fee × 3 plus the activation fee for an evaluation, or one purchase plus activation for an instant-funding plan, which has no evaluation to retake. A dash means it isn’t in our data yet.
Our catalog stores each rule per plan, not per stage, so this list doesn’t say whether a rule changes once you’re funded; check the firm’s terms before you buy. The filter reads one stored field: the plan’s drawdown is recorded as static.
