TradingVerdict is an independent review desk for futures prop firms, brokers and trading tools. We trade the evaluations and funded accounts ourselves, and rank firms on what holds up — not the marketing.
The prop firm space is loud. Every firm claims the highest split, the fastest payouts and the friendliest rules. Most “review” sites just rephrase those claims and attach an affiliate link.
TradingVerdict exists because we got tired of guessing which firms actually pay. We are traders first. We sit through the evaluations, hit the drawdown limits, deal with the support queues, and scrutinise the withdrawal rules — then we write down exactly what happened.
The result is a set of verdicts built on lived experience rather than press releases. If a firm is excellent, we say so. If a firm quietly changed its consistency rule or stalled a payout, we say that too.
Four commitments separate a tested verdict from a rewritten sales page.
Every verdict starts with us buying an evaluation and trading it ourselves. We feel the rules, the latency and the platform the same way you would.
A 90% split means nothing if the money never lands. We dig into payout rules, processing times, resets and what real funded traders report — the parts firms rarely put on the homepage.
Affiliate deals fund this site, but they never move a score. A firm that pays us more does not climb. A firm that fails a payout drops, sponsor or not.
Prop firm rules and discounts move fast. Verdicts are revisited every month, and the test date sits on every review so you always know how fresh it is.
We earn affiliate commissions when readers sign up through some of our links. That funding is what lets us pay for evaluation accounts month after month. It is also the obvious place for bias to creep in — so we built a hard wall around it.
Rankings are decided before any commercial conversation. A firm cannot pay to be featured, cannot pay to remove a criticism, and cannot pay to climb the table. The scores come from the test, full stop.
You can read the full breakdown of how we score on our methodology page, and exactly how we make money on our affiliate disclosure.
Every futures prop firm, traded hands-on by us, scored and refreshed monthly.
