Take Profit Trader

rules

Take Profit Trader — full TEST → PRO → PRO+ ladder documented

Was

Single "Evaluation" entry · PRO+ split typo · placeholder platforms

Now

TEST (eval) → PRO (sim 80/20) → PRO+ (live 90/10) ladder

Confirmed the daily loss limit remains removed at every stage (a homepage read that suggested a $1,100 DLL was a misread). Documented the three-stage ladder: TEST evaluation uses EOD trailing drawdown and 50% consistency; PRO is simulated-funded 80/20 with day-one payouts and switches to intraday trailing drawdown; PRO+ is a real live-market account at 90/10 with EOD drawdown. Fixed the PRO+ split (was mis-typed 90/20), added the real platform list, and clarified the $130 one-time activation vs monthly subscription. Standard eval is 5 minimum trading days. Sourced from the TPT site and current rule references.

Top One Futures

rules

Top One refresh — S2F dropped, four paths rebuilt from the site

Was

Elite · Instant Sim · S2F · Ignite (mismatched plan data)

Now

Elite Access · Elite Daily · Instant Sim · Ignite (all 90% split)

S2F Sim PRO is gone. Rebuilt all four paths cleanly: Elite Access (one-time 1-day pass, no DLL, 5-day payouts), Elite Daily (monthly eval, daily payouts, DLL $500-$1,850), Instant Sim Funded (monthly, skip eval, 20% consistency, trailing drawdown), Ignite (one-time instant funding, 15% consistency, now includes 150K). All pay a flat 90% split. List pricing added. Sourced from the Top One site.

My Funded Futures

rules

MFF lineup refresh — Flex retired, Rapid EOD added, Builder reworked

Was

Rapid · Pro · Flex · Builder (50K-150K)

Now

Rapid · Rapid EOD · Pro · Builder (25K/50K)

Flex is discontinued. New limited-time Rapid EOD keeps daily payouts but uses end-of-day drawdown in the funded stage (4-day pass, 30% eval consistency). Builder is now 25K/50K only with 48-hour sim payouts and a five-payout ladder to a real Live account at Blue Row Capital. Rapid confirmed: EOD in eval then intraday trailing once funded. Sourced from the MFF plan pages (rapid, rapid-eod, pro, builder).
