TradeDay
Nine products sold from one price table, and on three of them the floor changes clock after you have paid for the version that does not: the evaluation runs End-of-Day and "All Quick Pay Funded Sim accounts will have an intraday drawdown , regardless of the drawdown had on the evaluation." The card is labelled (Intraday Funded Drawdown), so it is disclosed rather than buried — but that route costs $79 against $59 at the $50K and the thing being bought expires at funding. The second mechanism is quieter and costs more: the trailing limit runs on gross profit, and "Gross profits are current profits plus payouts.", so "So the TMD will continue to trail, even if users take payouts." Their own $50K example walks the floor from $48,000 to $48,800 across two withdrawals that leave the balance back at about $50,000 — the cheque is paid out of the headroom. It does stop: the limit trails "until they reach the starting account balance". Fast Pass is End-of-Day at both stages and does neither of these things.
The contract describes a different product from the shop, in three places, and the contract is the document that binds. It requires "a minimum 7-day period" where the site sells five days on Quick Pay and three on Fast Pass, and the firm's own timeline dates the change — "Trading days reduced from 7 to 5" — to September 2025. It prices a retake flat: "the cost of a reset is $99", against $59 to $225 on the cards and $60 to $225 in the help centre. And it describes only an end-of-day drawdown although four of the nine products run the harder intraday one. It also carries a requirement no marketing page mentions: a compulsory course titled Rules and Regulations. Six cards state Payout Buffer: None and the FAQ says "no buffer to clear, no minimum trading period", while the help centre says "traders must have cleared the Buffer Zone before requesting a payout" and no page we read defines it. The front page's "keep up to 90% of the profit" is the Funded Live rate: a newly funded Quick Pay trader is on "50/50 below $4k net profit" until the account is $4,000 up. Both funded stages are "governed by a separate agreement between the User and TradeDay" which is not published, so every figure here comes from a price card and a help centre the firm can edit at will. In its favour, and it is not nothing: one company at every stage, founders and staff named with their histories, and a pass rate the firm publishes itself — "The trader pass rate of the evaluation program was 36% between Januaury 2026 and June 2026."
Not enough published data to simulate this firm’s floor.
This firm publishes its floor by account size — see the cited table below.
Crossed one of the seven hard bars. Open the row and it names which one, with the mechanism spelled out. This is not a low grade — no quantity of virtue elsewhere buys it off, which is why it carries no rank at all.
Disqualified for
Drawdown changes when funded
Sold under one rule, traded under a harder one. The account you qualified for is not the account you are given, and the difference is only legible after you have paid.
Asking for money moves the floor
Your balance is untouched — what shrinks is the distance between it and the number that closes the account, and the trigger is you requesting a withdrawal. This is not the same as a floor that locks at your starting balance on its own, which several firms here do and which costs nothing: it is arriving at that floor before the account earned the buffer. One firm sets a $20 minimum request, so $20 can cost several thousand of headroom. Sibling of the first drawdown bar: that one fires at a stage boundary the firm controls, this one at a moment you choose.
What they published
“All Quick Pay Funded Sim accounts will have an intraday drawdown , regardless of the drawdown had on the evaluation.”“When a user requests a payout, the TMD is calculated off of gross profits, not the net profits. So the TMD will continue to trail, even if users take payouts.”“Trailing max drawdown limits continues to trail your account growth until they reach the starting account balance.”Plan by plan

The honest one of the two Quick Pay routes: intraday at both stages, so nothing about the floor changes at funding, and it freezes at the starting balance. What it costs is on the way out — the limit trails on gross profit, so every payout is taken out of the headroom rather than out of the profit above it.
You pay a premium for an end-of-day floor and lose it the moment you pass: the evaluation is end-of-day and the funded account is intraday, in the firm's own words and in the card's own label. The amount never changes; the clock does, and the harder clock is the one you only reach after paying.
End-of-day at both stages and frozen at the starting balance, which is the best floor this firm sells — and the one the marketing talks about least. The price is elsewhere: the funded contract limit drops from 5, 10 or 15 to 2, 3 or 4, so you qualify at a size you are then not allowed to trade, and the 45% consistency rule survives funding where Quick Pay drops it.

What this firm published
Everything below is quoted from a page we opened, on the date shown. The quotes are in the firm’s own language, exactly as published — never edited, never shortened, never swapped for a translation. On the Spanish edition our own rendering appears underneath each one, unquoted and marked as ours: the quotation marks on this site mean the words are the firm’s, and nothing we wrote ever wears them. Where we have not read enough to put a number on an axis, we say so instead of guessing.
3/5
Can you even pass?
Almost nobody who pays for an evaluation ever reaches a funded account, so this is the part of the product most customers actually buy. Every firm advertises its profit target; none of them advertises that target next to how much you are allowed to lose while chasing it.
2/5
Can you keep the money?
The drawdown takes the account away; the payout rules take the money. Answered by whichever of the two we can measure and is worse — they are two ways of losing the same thing, so a good half cannot pay for a bad one.
3/5
Is anyone behind it?
A named company, a market, and rules you could read before paying. These three do not substitute for one another — a company you can sue does not stop existing because the account is a simulation — so this is the average of the ones we could measure, not the worst.

The six axes above ask whether the firm can take your money or refuse to pay it. These rules ask something else — whether you can trade your way — and the right weight depends on who is reading: a minimum holding time decides the account for a scalper and is invisible to anyone else, while the weekend rule is the reverse. A single number would be wrong for half of you, and would look decided. The firm’s own sentences are here; the judgement is yours.

The three below are different. A two-million ceiling is the whole point of the product for one reader and irrelevant to someone who wants one clean payout, so the firm’s sentences are here and the weight is yours.

“However, you can take the evaluation again by either: Purchase a retake, known as a ‘reset’. Or, wait for your next subscription payment to go through, and we will reset you for free at that time.”A free second attempt turns one bad week into a delay instead of another invoice.

The six axes above ask whether the firm can take your money or refuse to pay it. These rules ask something else — whether you can trade your way — and the right weight depends on who is reading: a minimum holding time decides the account for a scalper and is invisible to anyone else, while the weekend rule is the reverse. A single number would be wrong for half of you, and would look decided. The firm’s own sentences are here; the judgement is yours.

The three below are different. A two-million ceiling is the whole point of the product for one reader and irrelevant to someone who wants one clean payout, so the firm’s sentences are here and the weight is yours.

A company on its own cannot always be.
Almost no firm here has a financial regulator, because selling simulated evaluations is not a regulated activity anywhere. Of the 114 firms we scored by hand, 96 sat in the bottom two rungs of backing for this reason. So we do not count it against anyone — it only adds when a firm genuinely has one.
