4-Star Elite Trader Funding Reviews

Good risk parameters

NOT TOO BAD.BUT, THE RERIFICATION PROCESS TOO LONG

decent pricing and structure. helpful for traders. still yet to get a payout from etf. will update once i make it in 2026

Customer service was great and really responsive.
I’d recommend using ETF for those who are starting off in the prop firm space!

Good firm with customer support, but they need to reduce payout time/day.

It’s very clear rule to pass the evaluation

It's an okay process. Not thrilled with trading platform options for Live Elite.

Well-designed accessories are too expensive for beginners

Very happy with the company...the simplicity and clarity of eval rules is refreshing.

Cheap entry costs and clear rules

Great company

good prop firm

They were fast and friendly. Great support.

I like your dashboard. It has the important info in one place. I like your searchable help library. You have good sales on products that appeal to beginners like me.

The flexibility of trading is great.

The way the company has structured the journey from evaluation right through to payouts shows that they are committed to helping traders learn, develop and maintain proper habits and rules with risk management and trading plans. Teaching traders and preparing them for live markets while still honouring payouts along the way. I appreciate the honesty I find at ETF.

thank you very much elite trader i really want to thank you about everything you do just i want you to think about the min ATD 10 days is too much and also the 23% of the max profit daily you have a lot of rules but also you are still the best in the field thank you ETF and i wish you to think once more about the rules

Have been trading with them for last 1 year took many accounts and it's my first time I was able to request a payout, will be updating this review and will leave a complete review video on youtube of whatever experience I get once my payout is approved/denied till then fingers crossed.

Its tough finding a good prop firm that offers a good experience and on that delivers on what they promise. I have seen some changes over the last month, but I'm hoping its for the best.... I was able to get my 1st payout after a bit of back and forth they cleared up the miscommunication. I look forward to the future and plan on updating this review over the next 30 days to a 5 star... Let go!

I’ve had a great experience so far with Elite Trader Funding. What really stands out is their generous discount structure—they regularly run promos that make getting funded far more accessible compared to other firms. Their customer support is also top-notch: every time I had a question or an issue, I got a clear and friendly response within hours, sometimes even minutes. However, the one thing holding me back from giving a full 5 stars is the dashboard interface. It feels a bit outdated and clunky, especially compared to some of the newer prop firms. Tracking progress, drawdown, and payouts could definitely be more user-friendly and modernized. That said, the rules are fair, the payouts are quick, and the overall vibe from the team is transparent and professional. If they update the backend and improve the UX of the dashboard, I’d have no problem giving them a full 5-star rating. Still highly recommend for anyone looking to trade futures with a trusted firm. 💯

Starting with the most important aspect, they payout. They have enough accounts to go with the rules you need, which Static feels like it's the best option if you want it to feel like a real account.
Their support is extremely helpful, they undid an error I made, which I am extremely thankful for. The only thing missing is that their payouts are once a week, Wednesdays, which I'm aware, will be more open when I am a live trader, just wish I could see funds faster if I were to request on a Thursday. Twice a week would be nice, like a Tuesday and Thursday, or Wednesday and Friday to have it for the weekend. Their payouts can be a bit difficult compared to other firms, which their FAQ says they are possibly going to bring that down, but for now, just take it slow, trade micros, and you'll get to where you need to be eventually. This firm seems like they are for the trader, which I can only count on 1 hand how many props are actually like that.

What can I say, I had my doubts, but they delivered when it came time to pay out, and that's what counts. They really need to adjust some things to the direct funded accounts, such as if the trader makes over 10 K profit (on the 50 K account) the 35% hard stop should be a soft stop....only to stop the trader out for the day, not a failure of the account. They should also never promote a trader to Live until they can keep one account alive for six months minimum. That's a good test, just in my opinion. Despite a few one star reviews of them not paying out, I can say honestly that they did and I'm very grateful. Looking forward to keeping the ball rolling, in strength and patience.

Elite trader funding is a good firm if you are new to futures prop firms or prop firms in general. They have great deals going on from time to time and if you can catch one of them you can get up to 90% off on your challenge fees. The only drawback I can find is that their Consistency Rule in the funded stage being 23% which is the lowest in the industry.

THE BEAST CHALLENGE!! WHAT A FANTASTIC WAY TO GIVE OPPORTUNITY TO THE LOYAL COMMUNITY OF ELITE TRADERS!!

Giving this company a second chance and trusting that they will stick to what they commit to. Everyone deserves to learn and grow and it seems like these guys are better for that effort. So far so good

Elite trader funding is very helpful for me. This is my first funded challenge. I passed it. In this process, some doubt in my mind about contract size. Good elite trader funding FAQ solve my doubts. Thank you ETH.

They support is the best and the challenges are very affordable never seen a prop firm that offers such a crazy price on evaluation this helps us trader that don’t have much to invest and gives a chance to start trading:))

If you can purchase a challenge with discount you get the best bang for the buck. never had issues so far

If you can purchase a challenge with discount you get the best bang for the buck. never had issues so far

I have a good experience with elite trader funding and it is even affordable so best for small capital traders

The support team is responsive and all my problems solved fast. Thanks to Elite Trader Funding. Great job!

Kyc submitted, Confirmation came under 5min kyc was smooth. Will update after a payout

infact i'm new in elite I got 1step 50k for 100% free from their money not mine to trade and I thank all company because of they help broken people I contact the support they are very responsive all my emails until now company is good

I’ve been using funded accounts from this company for years, and overall, I’m happy with everything. I think the best part is that I’ve received payouts before, so I can confirm that it’s a reliable company. They have good customer support and generally respond promptly. If I had to suggest an improvement, it would be to make the withdrawal criteria a bit easier and faster.

ETF's offers great supports with quick response although I have not get paid from them. It just mean I need to follow my strats.

Its very convenient process to work with .however for payout waiting for 10 days is bit annoying, atleast these needs to be reduced after first payout.
Take profit trader firm accepting same day payouts without any active trade days rule.

I would have no problem giving 5 stars since the support works very well and is quick in responses, but I will give 5 stars when I receive my first payout!
Unfortunately I have had bad experiences with other props and I want to be careful with reviews, I hope you understand!

Well I am using this website from 2-3 month.it is good for me. because they give plenty of offers, also organise many games and giveways.who don't want to buy the account they can win. They have many types account options.even they provide Diamond Hands Evaluations for swing traders.which I want to buy in future. The customer service is also excellent. At the end everything is brilliant with elite trader at this point.but I make some silly mistake,so I couldn't qualified for account.

Good choice for small budgets. There are plenty of opportunities to get your preferred challenge for low cost. Therefore the rules are strict and need to be studied carefully. The only downside for me personally is the Trailing Drawdown.

I got a reply instantly from their team when i contacted them concerning the account i passed , though im yet to transfer stays but they will help with that as soon as i get the acc 🤩

Customer care is good, they are quick within the specified time slot. It would be much better if either chat or call is available.

I've been trading with ETF for a bit now and have been paid out before on their static accounts. They do pay — which is ultimately what matters — but be warned: the firm enforces its risk rules tightly, and there's little room for interpretation. That said, ETF’s structure rewards traders who are disciplined and controlled in their approach. After a prior payout denial (due to a DCA rule violation), I completed their requested 8-day reset and was approved. The payout approval process was slower than I would’ve liked — expect to wait a few days for a response — but they followed through, and that's what matters. If you're looking to scale a proven process and can follow their rules to the letter, ETF is a legit option in the space. I will be adding more accounts on their next sale.

Helpful support team, Gotten paid via rise before and was very good. Look forward to the future

The support is quick to respond and solve the problem within a short space of time.

I have received a prompt and clear response to my questions. I didn't experience any delays, nor did I have to contact them again to receive a response.

Elite Trader is starting to really be a contender in the prop space. They are making changes that are more geared toward the trader. They have quick response to from their customer service team and try their best to come with a solution for the trader. I look forward to seeing what ahead.

I purchased two Daimond Hands accounts from Elite Trader Funding, successfully passed the evaluation phase, and was trading in the funded stage.

Unfortunately, what has happened since is not just disappointing — it’s alarming and unacceptable.

I managed my trades strictly according to the rules, especially the daily loss limit as displayed in the Trader Dashboard. I adjusted my position size and stop loss to ensure the displayed limit would not be violated. That should be more than enough — especially when you rely on the platform’s official tools and data.

But here's the issue:

My trades were automatically closed, and the funded accounts were liquidated with the explanation that the daily loss limit had been breached.
This is demonstrably false.

I have clear screenshots showing:

-The EOD balance was intact
-The displayed daily loss limit was not reached
-Only one position was open per account (1 MES lot)
-The stop loss was set above the platform’s daily loss limit

Despite presenting this clear evidence, support ignored the actual data from their own dashboard. Instead, they provided a general explanation of how the limit is calculated — but completely failed to explain the inconsistency between that and the actual numbers shown to me as a trader.

To make matters worse, I was told the liquidation was valid — even though it was based on inaccurate and misleading platform data. No transparency, no correction, no responsibility.

I’ve worked with many prop firms over the past 6 years. Nothing like this has ever happened.

Conclusion: If you trade accounts at ETF, beware:
Even if you respect the rules and base your trading on the data they provide, you might lose everything due to errors in their system — and support won’t take any responsibility.

This experience broke all trust for me — and I cannot recommend Elite Trader Funding based on how this was handled.
----------------------------
Update to my previous review – Issue resolved professionally

Following my initial negative experience, I would like to update my review and give credit where it’s due. After raising my concerns with Elite Trader Funding regarding an account issue, the support team took the matter seriously and investigated thoroughly.

They acknowledged the error, offered a reasonable and fair solution, and followed through with clear communication. I appreciate the fact that they ultimately resolved the issue to my satisfaction.

This shows that the company listens to its traders and is willing to take responsibility and correct mistakes. I’m pleased with how this was handled and thank the support team for their efforts.

Une entreprise tres correct avec un service client tres rapide

The elite trader funding support is very active and they solved my quiry within 24hrs. I commend their hardwork and commitment to solve customers quirys. I hope they will keep on doing this to others.

Completely ok trading for funded trades!

Eft provide fund to retail trader . Its very easy to pass challenges and also the support system is very fast

Good firm, nice prices. Support is quick & understandble.

Out of all of the propfirms I've used i believe ETF is probably one of the best, they have great prices and there activation fees aren't super expensive and they also have pretty good customer service. I would recommend giving them a try and see how you like it. Keep in mind all prop firms are made to be challenging as they are searching for consistent and profitable traders.

I've had a great experience with Elite Trader Funding so far. One of the standout aspects for me has been their support team—they're incredibly helpful and responsive. Every time I had a question or needed clarification, they replied quickly and provided clear, thorough answers. It really makes a difference when you're working with a prop firm and feel supported throughout the process. The platform itself is solid, and the evaluation process is fair and transparent. But what really gives them an edge, in my opinion, is how much they seem to care about their traders. If you're looking for a prop firm with a strong support system, I highly recommend giving Elite Trader Funding a try.

Hello traders! My name is Jitendra and I’ve come across ETF from a few streamers I watch. They’ve been grabbing payouts left and right and they said it’s a great firm. Their customer service is FAST which is impressive. Will leave another review when I’m funded !!

My First review here! Great OG firm with honestly a great payout system. I would recommend buying during sales because you can STACK tf out of accounts. Love them.

I've had a good experience with them so far! I would say their new UI update is AWESOMEEE. Been waiting for this a long time. Their payouts are posted live so you can even see yourself!

Bought to give it a try now loving the experience they are providing
Execution is seemless
Overall a good environment for traders

Process of initiating evaluation account is very easy and user friendly.
Rules for trading need to be in brief along with examples to let it understand to new comer

I got my answers in less than 10 mins

My experience with ETF was actually great. I was trading demo since i first started trading but RN i'am able to taste real experience with ETF. their support is really fast and absolute helpfull. also i used tradingview that was smooth experience as my orders filled instantly. thanks.

If you want to just practice trading on evaluations , they have some great deals but read the terms and conditions. 23% consistency of your highest profit is not easy and you have to do it over 10 days. Once you get there, they will deny your payout. I have spent thousands on evaluations and when I request my payout... denied. They claim that my payout was denied for using a VPN... When I wrote in for clarification... nothing. Stay away and use other firms.

11/12/25
Update : Support has reached out to me and I will keep everyone posted on what happens next.

14/12/25
Update :
ETF explained what happened and why they denied my payout. The reason given was one instance of using a VPN for a trade ( out of perhaps more than 100 other trades) . I usually turn my VPN off as i hate the lag on tradovate but might have forgotten. It is my fault and i paid the price of a 4k payout denial (2 withdrawals processed together) AND immediate account closure as I had broken their rules. Did i break their rules? I probably did but one infraction to close my account and deny my payout is a little harsh i feel but thats just my personal opinion. Anyway, support reached out and gave me the explanation, they were unable to rectify what was done previously but were generous enough to come to a compromise of giving me 2 direct 2 funded accounts. A small consolation prize but it does give me more opportunities to practice trading, afterall trading is difficult, IF i can get to payout i will update everyone on whether ETF pays. Fingers Crossed!

I had a great experience using elite trader funding as a trader who prefers using tradovate, clean and easy use on trading view ,great team and rules

Their support is nice and very fast response. The email they sent explained in detail and helped me.

The handybot in their discord offers valuable information. The rules are clear and easy to understand. They regularly have promotions which offer affordable accounts. They have weekly games in their discord which give you a chance to win an account. I would rate them 10/10

surprisingly fast support system,overall a reliable prop firm and transparent one

Love the propfirm. But the only thing I don't like is the payment options. Please put more payment options and a better dashboard. But overall one of the best propfirm.

Overall, I have had a good experience with this prop. very fast responses from support. The Diamond Hands eval is well worth it if you are looking to swing trade. Rules are not too bad either; if you really know how to trade and manage risk you should not have any problem operating within them. The only thing I'd say that I think should be done away with (especially with diamond hands accounts) is the one trade per week; sometimes can be annoying when you feel like you are forced to take a position. Not really a huge deal though. Overall, a good firm.

Muy buena, fácil y rápida para la adquisición de las cuentas. La recomiendo.

Elite Trader Funding has remained my top choice for a while now. They have quality customer service and an ever growing community of traders that could rival any prop desk in the business. Their rules and evals are pretty much on par with industry standards that your used to seeing. What I really like is the unique engagement their community has. They have contests to give guys perks, the have great marketing campaign around sales that don't come off cheap like other unnamed props. Instead they understand how to tough it can be growing trading discipline and how expensive it can get. So they look out for their customers constantly, even with things like a 2 day $40 reset sale. Their payout rules are fair and consistent. You can't game the system with illegal software but they respect all styles of trading. I'm an order flow trader who trades on a DOM and have never had any issues or complaints from them. Their discord is almost like a university of dope traders of all levels with different strategies. There is always something to learn and the mods are first class with information. Their not attached directly with ETF but you can tell that they work together to create a wonderful customer experience.

Easy to use platform. The sales are really nice.

I like the deals and various EA options that helps to try prop accounts.

Awesome company that do promos and specials on accounts. Rules are a bit more than others but they pay.

Mi experiencia con Elite Trader Funding ha sido excepcional. Desde el primer momento, su atención al cliente fue rápida y sumamente amable. No solo resolvieron completamente mi duda, sino que lo hicieron de manera clara y detallada, lo que me dio una gran tranquilidad. Además, demostraron un alto nivel de profesionalismo y gratitud en cada paso del proceso. Incluso nos devolvieron la cuenta que habíamos fallado, lo cual fue un gesto muy apreciado. Agradezco profundamente la eficacia con la que gestionaron nuestra consulta, y sin duda recomendaría sus servicios por su dedicación y excelente trato al cliente. Sin lugar a dudas, seguiré confiando en ellos para futuras consultas y actividades. ¡Gracias por su excelente servicio!

I made an enquiry in terms of their Diamond Hands Sim-Funded account, and got my answer within ± 1.5 hours. In my book that is excellent, keeping in mind I am NOT a customer yet! Another prop firm in which I have just past the challenge THREE days ago, has not even answered any queries pertaining the issue, let alone granted me the subsequent funded account!!

ETF is great prop firm for new trader they can afford in minimum price. Many variations of accounts to choose from like Static or Trailing drawdown, Fast track accounts.

If someone is looking for a cheap prop to get started with, go with ETF. I would recommend it for anyone new or experienced as traders.

Many variations of accounts to choose from like Static or Trailing drawdown, Fast track accounts.

Elite Trader Funding has given a seamless operation on their dashboard and at their checkouts.

Choosing Tradovate accounts have integration with Trading View and Ninja Trader which is a big plus.

Good firm. Transparent and legit.

I found Elite trader funded to be a very good plat form,the experience with their support team was very good.

My experience with Elite Trader Funding was fantastic. They were quick to response to the questions I had and they gave effective solutions. Their prices for the challenge accounts are affordable and have reasonable violation rules. I will continue using them.

easy to use, customer service seems fast to respond

Elite Trader Funded est une bonne équipe de support, un excellent serveur Discord et une réponse rapide. Elite Trader Funded est une excellente société de support. Ils ont un système de points qui vous permet d'acheter des défis gratuitement avec vos points. J'espère obtenir un financement et partager mon expérience future

They have good discounts and the support team is very helpful. Really good for beginners.

Great prop firm. Rules are pretty fair. Would love the active trading days to be 5 days instead of 10 for payouts. I dislike that part. Had a issue that I caused and support was great

Tienen buen servicio, buenas ofertas buen servidor, las reglas son sencillas me fondee pero aún no retiro volveré a dejar comentario una vez que retire

Good customer service, discount and very responsive join the discord to find out

Everything has been straight forward with Elite trader Funding I've not been facing any issues with them it's been great they also have great support and community.

Quick turn around to my question helped. I logged a ticket and I had a response back quite quickly which helped me act accordingly on my trade account.

Elite continues to offer Traders opportunities!

My experience with ETF has been great, their evaluation process is fair, their account prices are affordable and their customer support is always responsive and helpful.

The process is easy, support is great, they reply fast so you get the help needed immediately. I will recommend to others.

Good funded trading account company

the experience is good so far
i used them for a month now , loved the 90% reduction
their static account is by far the best imo , because you can go above the usual threshold u can get your payout ,

Good customer service relatively quick even in no trading hours. Website is clean and easy to understand. More data and statistics of your trading would be nice to have.

After an initial setback, ETF came through, I am happy that this company delivers its promise. Well done. Keep up the good work

I started trading with elite a while back even though I Failed my 2 evaluation account but I am optimistic to renew soon and start trading, I really find there initial price very reasonable
It provides me to not lose hope if I fail,
I hope elite will keep giving good discounts on there evaluation but also will consider discounts on funding accounts as well as create instant funding accounts to bypass Evaluation

I've been using ETF for several months now, and I’m very satisfied with my experience. The platform is easy to navigate and offers powerful trading tools that work well for both beginners and experienced traders. What truly sets ETF apart is their exceptional customer support. Whenever I’ve had questions or encountered issues, their support team has responded promptly—usually within a few hours. Beyond their quick response time, they are also understanding and accommodating. They show a genuine willingness to assist users and work through any problems, whether it’s technical concerns, account inquiries, or trade-related issues. This supportive approach adds a reassuring sense of trust. ETF also stands out because they consistently update their features and value user feedback. It’s clear they prioritize creating a reliable and client-focused trading environment.

I have been passing their evals and so far their support has been great and I have not had any issues with them.

I've been trying to pass the Evolution accounts for two months now. Despite getting very close, I haven't managed to pass yet. I find their system to be quite consistent. The account variety and occasional significant discounts are a big plus for users, in my opinion. My only criticism is that it's difficult to monitor account rules and limits in real-time. I'll keep trying my chances with this firm

Great Customer Service! They respond promptly and offer solutions to the distressed Trader who is emotionally charged at the moment and is looking for Solutions to the issue at hand!

Tres bonne compagnie
Une compagnie avec des regle abordable
Tres bon support repond tres rapidement

EliteTraderFunding is one of the best prop companies in the future sector with which I have been able to make friends as a scalper so far. The rules are much better and more pleasant as well as more transparent. I am looking forward to the trip with ETF and look forward to the request for a payout in a few weeks. Then there is the next review

This company has been GREAT at providing Affordable opportunities to Grow as A funded trader. Their Help Center is Top Notch at delivering all pertainent information with an easy delivery for Beginners like myself.

I've had negative experiences in the past but recently came back to etf as they did away with some rules that made things unfair. The experience has been smoother and better all around. The 90 percent off really helps when they have it to make them competitive vs other prop firms.

La rapidez de la respuesta.
La amabilidad y disposición a responder cuestionamientos reiterados.
La explicación detallada en sus respuestas.
La transparencia. Todo lo anterior la hacen una muy buena empresa de fondeo. Deberían tener cuentas de pases directos y serian los mejores!!!

I've used ETF & found them to be great. I have yet to reach a payout so can't comment on that part of the process but everything else has been good. Prompt responses from customer care, dashboard is straightforward & trading conditions have been fine (I usually trade London & NY am), account set ups have been quick.

Lo que más me impresiona de esta empresa es que se destaca por su variedad de cuentas, adaptadas a todo tipo de traders. Además, ofrece una opción única: una cuenta de DRAWDOWN ESTÁTICO🥳🥳🥳, algo poco común en el mercado. También ofrece un excelente soporte al cliente ya que te responden tu ticket muy rápido realmente, garantizando una experiencia de trading de calidad.

Decent prop firm. Pricing is reasonable and their FAQ is detailed. Downside is that their trader dashboard is weak, and their payout rules are terrible.

my experience was great ngl im 7 days aways from requesting payout so pray for me yyallllll !!!!!!!

They have one of the fastest support system out there to be honest

Elite Trader Funding has many account options with different specification. They have good customer services. The only criticism I have is that their account activation fee is a bit too high.

My experience here has been pretty good so far. I can't complain about many things except the 10 days payout I wish it was more like 7 days. All in all, they are good in terms of promotions and what they have to offer.

Full experience excluding payouts A variety of platforms and accounts, with cheap prices and flash discounts every now and then, force me to try them over and over, especially because everything is smooth and fast! Support is amazing, nice, and generous in terms of gifts and reconsideration They need to improve their website design since it's not user-friendly Live chat support would be a good option, however, their email support acts super fast but not so good for customers who would like interactive support A lot of chaos about their payout policy but the marketing team doesn't defend a lot -===
So far amazing and my favorite and most affordable, and I'd love to see them improve ^_^

Good support team, great Discord server, and quick response. Elite Trader Funded is an excellent support company.
It has a points system that allows you to reset challenges for free using your points.
I highly recommend. Hope to get funded and share my future experience soon.

A good option if you are considering a prop firm. Some of the rules can be confusing, mainly the consistency rule and minimum daily profit targets. I like that I can use Tradingview as my platform. I dislike that the lifetime activation fees are higher than standard and there is no option for lifetime on the fast track

Elite trader has been good so far. I really enjoy their deals and the fast track option gives you a free month of activation fees when you pass the evaluation. Haven't gotten a pay out yet but hoping to get one soon. Check them out!

Good support team, great Discord server, and quick response. Hope to get funded and share my future experience soon.

I must say costumer support is excellence, always responding and willing to find a way to help and resolve mistakes even made by me.

I bought 100k fast track accounts multiple times and had gotten payout from them , the pricing so far has not let me down and the fast payout made it amazing.
Taking one star because i think a livechat should be included so that one can acces to help faster.

I am going for evaluation now, this firm has best pricing in this space.
Their discord is too cool to be part of. Looking forward to great future with ETF.

This Prop Firm is my first Prop Firm after I transitioned to trading in a Futures Prop Firm. Many times, we may encounter issues related to fund rules or market pressure. The fund business is designed to select traders who aspire to transform themselves into professionals. ETF funds are one of the options that meet these needs, offering strong back-office support, responsive email communication from the support team, and an engaging community on Discord. Within the community, traders cheer each other on, discuss concerns, and clarify issues effectively.

Status: In Evaluation. So far experience:
Good support team, awesome discord server and pocket friendly evaluations. Have some tough rules but that's what makes you disciplined. Hope to get funded and share my future experience soon.

Their costumer service is second to none, Cheapest eval in the industry with their discount sells.
My only challenge is the buffer zone and trading days before payout, I hope the team will consider.

Professional staff, genuine firm, have some tough rules, but if you are disciplined you will make it.

Elite Trader Funding has an outstanding support team—professional, responsive, and always ready to assist with any inquiries. Their commitment to trader success is evident in how efficiently they handle issues and provide clear guidance. I highly recommend them as a prop firm for anyone looking for a reliable and well-structured trading opportunity.

I love the propfirm is one of the cheapest future propfirm out there. The only thing what I don't like is the activation fee. But I STILL LOVE THIS PROPFIRM

Great firm, you can have full transparency with them. They are great on helping out replying to you fast, been with them for 8months, great deals and rules are there to help you become a disciplined trader

Elite Trader Funding, is the Prop Ferm where you can get a very cheap challenge and make great Profit.

I like the level of service i get and the platform, what i would really like is a more easier way to visualize drawdown within the web app. As it stands we have to use a separate platform to be able to see that.

The service is good, but there are too many small fees charged repeatedly. It would be better if they consolidated everything into one monthly charge. This change would simplify tracking expenses and make the process more transparent.

Great futures prop. Have had no issues with account besides some trouble shooting issues I had to figure out myself. Don't have anything bad to say about Elite Trading

I have been using ETF for the past few years, they are always prompt and most if the time clear about expectations. There are a lot of rules for payout, but I understand why. It's most likely there reason that they are able to payout consistently.

The service is fast. No Delay.
Payout days is min. ten days. That's too long, I think min. five days is popular in the market. Some company provide much easier payout policy.

Positive Experience with ETF Futures Prop Firm

I recently had the pleasure of working with ETF Futures Prop Firm, and I’m thrilled with the results! From the start, their platform was user-friendly, transparent, and tailored for both novice and experienced traders. The firm’s risk management strategies and comprehensive support system gave me the confidence to trade with discipline.

One of the standout aspects was their dedication to education — the training resources, mentorship, and real-time insights were invaluable in sharpening my skills. I also appreciated the timely payouts and the professionalism of the support team, who were always available to answer questions and provide guidance.

Overall, ETF Futures Prop Firm has exceeded my expectations. They truly empower traders to succeed and provide all the tools necessary to grow. I highly recommend them to anyone serious about trading futures.

5/5 stars — exceptional experience!

The rules has to be implemented...
The rules has to be implemented...
I breach my first fast track evalution on the last days of November because of martingale they say increase position size after loss. not allowed.... But sometimes we took position size according to a pair and volatility, I actually decided to add some pairs after my research but I decided to use higher position size to lower volatile pairs like new Zealand dollar but smaller position size to higher volatile pairs like gold.... To that fact.... I didn't have. Maximum drawdown but they say I failed, try to contact support team but they say I've break risk parameters rule I think this rule have to removed OR Modified OR well mentioned on the front part of rules it's really hard to came across.... When trading different pairs......

Experiência de boa, porém não tive êxito nos meus Trade

Me gustan las reglas,el soporte siempre está atento para responder las consultas

Good service & fast setup

Great rules, fastest support respond in the whole prop firm industry. Lots of promo opportunities to get yourself some cheaper accounts. There is only one rule i dont understand, you can have one profile per household, so if your wife/husband is trading from the same address, thats not possible, you need to choose one account.

Hard to pass

Had a lot of trouble explaining, but at the end it worked out

Prices with good discounts and access for people with limited financial resources. Great variety in account types for different trading styles and different platforms, good customer service. EXCELLENT ELITE TRADER FUNDING

Technical issues arose on user dashboard support was contacted after hours but still responded within the hour, no other like them. Issues fixes immediately thanks ETF

Support is fast and efficient

Great firm with best support.
Genuine Firm, have some difficult rules. If they ease some rules and reduce minimum trading days they will be number 1 in the industry

I've worked with them for a few years…
I've worked with them for a few years on and off and can say they are legit and are trying to help and be fair to the trader. We must all remember that this is still a business and not a charity. I've been paid by them and I think all their rules are pretty fair. They aren't perfect but they strive to provide quality service and do right by the trader. I wrote this earlier but it didn't save under my name

fast response on a reply. Fixed all issues.

Customer service is very good and has resolved all issues I've had that have come up in the past. My only critique is that sometimes they don't read the email I send when there is an issue. I always include in detail what the issue was and I'll get an answer that's unrelated to what I've written about, like they didn't read what I've sent. I then have to resend to explain the problem again. Eventually, they get it and are always helpful. Also, It seems the new reward system has made it harder to earn a free reset of an evaluation. I have to spend much more money to get the points. To be fair, this just started and I have to see how it will actually work out

I've been using ETF for around 2 years now and my experience has been solid overall. For those wondering, yes they DO payout however you have to mindful of the rules they have in place. I suggest looking them over to make sure it fits with your style of trading. Customer support and their discord are excellent for getting clarity on something in question. Also, make sure where your trading from is eligible as VPNs are not allowed. ETF gets a 4/5 from me. Some cons I experienced are that some information is vague on the website/not easy to understand for example having to make your drawdown first then profit after that amount is when you can request a payout. It's simple when explained correctly but can be confusing if not seeing it explained in the discord. I believe this is where most of the scam allegations come from which is just lack of clarity but the info is available and there are ways to get your questions answered. Customer support I did have a slight hiccup with specifically the payroll team. I remember waiting for a response for a little over 2 weeks. I thought they forgot about me but they did answer eventually. I had already received my payout so I wasn't worried about it but if someone's payout is held up for whatever reason I can understand how uneasy that can feel. Another "flaw" is the added rules, seems like over the years they get slightly stricter like going from the 40% rule to 23% and eliminating the amount of funded accounts you can have down to 3. However the reasons for these changes do make sense from the company standpoint as they are targeting consistent profitable traders. It just sucks as a consumer seeing that restriction get tighter but long as your trading strategy is solid the rules shouldn't affect you too much. Overall the money I put in towards my futures journey paid off. If your completely new I suggest looking into a sim account first before buying evals. Evals are decently priced but can add up quick if your failing a lot so practice first before jumping into an eval.

Pros:
-Prompt replies by mods in discord
-KYC and payment processor onboarding is relatively fast and easy
-Payout (3 payouts so far have only taken 1 day from the time they are approved) Cons:
-Payout approval usually takes 1-2 days from the time of submission (depends on individual but it is long because no trading until approved/rejected)
-Trading session after payout is approved on that particular day is not counted (you can trade and make profits but it is not credited towards your active trading day total)
-Relatively long minimum trading days required for 1st and 2nd payout cycle

Payout process took about 36 Hours from time of request to time of receiving it in rise. that was for the first payout will have to see if the next request is faster. But i have been paid out with no issues or trouble from ETF.

Review Update 5/16/24 After a week of waiting (due to email issues from ETF), and several back and forth communications, ETF has come through and processed the payout that I did qualify for and earned. This review was written mostly due to my interaction with a specific member of their Discord Moderator Staff. This Moderator was beyond rude and unprofessional and did not recognize that their actions acted to represent ETF as a whole. After they reached out to me here, I went back to discord ans found I was no longer banned (I assume it was a timed ban). I created a new ticket that was met by a completely different moderator. Despite my being upset about the situation still, he was professional and did the thing that the other moderator failed to do: Got me in contact with a supervisor. After much communication back and forth, and the clearing up of confusion after confirming that id met the requirements for a payout, I was sent an email today that my payout was being processed and asked to set up the payout info, which went smoothly. It took a few hours, but I got confirmation and was able to send the money to my account (being processed now). As a US trader, its hard to find a good prop firm to trust. While I did get upset, the moderator and later support team was able to handle my issues and provide a satisfactory outcome. I will
Update this review again if needed, but for now, good job ETF. 👍 =====================================
Original Review: I cannot recommend Elite Trader Funding. A lot of US traders have felt the hurt from the forex market recently, and the futures prop firm picks are small. That said, ETF was recommended to me as being really good. So, like many others, I had to spend some time getting used to Futures trading and new platforms, but eventually got the hand of it. Passed several challenges and had been working on funding. They have a pretty simple ruleset for payout. Reach 40% of your max payout in your account for consistency, trade your account for 15 days (then for two more 15 periods then it lowers to 10) and you cant request more than your min balance. Hit all this on day 22 of the account. Went and requested a payout. Several days later I got an email saying it was denied because I didnt follow the rules in the payout cycle with no explanation. I created tickets, then joined the discord where their website said I could talk to an actual person. This is where the problem happened. It was explained to me that payroll denied my payout because they wanted to see “genuine activity”. I sent photos of my dashboard showing the account being 22 days. They said I sometime did more than one trade a day. I asked why that mattered. The website says we can trade OUR way, and some days I did take additional trades. They said some of my days were larger than others. It was then argued that I did a small trade. I said I did. I had taken a loss, was in another trade snd market was going to close, which you cant hold past, so I closed it. That put me below the 40% required and THAT day I got the payout button. They then said I needed to trade another day. I asked why, especially if I take a loss, which would put me out of the 40% range. I told them I want my payout. This person, named “Kenpachi” said I needed to trade another day. I asked to speak to a Supervisor then. He said they aren't on discord. I said they could call me. Telephone support isn't “available” to me, apparently, because I am not an elite trader. Email is also down, apparently. I told them I would record that I was requesting a supervisor and this was seedy behavior. He said “not at all, I'm just passing on information”, then ended the chat, closed my ticket, then deleted the channel so I didnt have access to the conversation. Luckily I did manage a few screen shots. When I tried to say something in their discord server and mentioned how I was treated and by who, I got banned. I didnt even get to ask my second question, which is why they wanted to charge me $1,000 to reset an account when they normally charge you $80. But no, instead of getting help or even talking to a supervisor or anything, I get to talk to some random guy on Discord who then deletes our chat and bans me. Yeah. Thanks for reading. r

The company is offering incentives and opportunity to anybody with native talent and the ability to stay within guidelines. I appreciated the challenge, I gained some essential insights for success. It made me a better trader.

Good propfirm! Super fast

I really like how clean and fast ETF’s site is. They have a good range of evaluations including the fast tracks. The payment is straight forward once you complete the KYC.
I really wish they’d remove the 40% consistency requirement. It really limits your trading if you like to hold a runner. The rule is not there to protect the trader which is my only complaint. Like ETF a lot and have a great community.

These are great guys. They are very professional. Everything is explained in the website. If you have any doubt you can contact them. Messages are replied very fast. Sim-funded accounts are great tools for beginners and experienced traders, from the discipline point of view. If you are good enough, you'll make money and get paid. If you are not, you'll save yourself a lot of losses on your hard earned money.

Quick customer service. I would recommend a better trader dashboard with more info on trades, balances, drawdowns etc... Just passed my FAST TRACK Eval ... now will see how the company does on live account.

I've been trading with ETF for about 6 months now, everything I have experienced with the company has been exactly as advertised and the support team has always helped when I needed it. In my experience I have had no problems and the process has always been transparent.

Can confirm they payout. Best integration with tradingview, but it can be wonky some days. Anytime there has been a glitch, they have always made it right .

Quick response time and helpful with any questions or concerns.

I’ve been with ETF for about 2 months now 2 funded accounts and multiple evals the support is superb im looking foward to them growing as a company and changing the game I’ve had pleasant talks with the founders and they are really in it for the traders and to grow relationships

Paid for 3 funded/elite accounts, and had traded the balance 6k+ the minimum balance +100 but they liquidated my account twice even though I was above the minimum balance, and had confirmed with them that I would not be liquidated for an EOD loss. Asked them to reset my account, but they said they would not even though this was an error on their end that happened TWICE.

UPDATE: I reached out to the admins on the Discord server and was able to have a good conversation last night with them. I am very appreciative that they listened to my concerns and in the end they were kind enough to agree to reset my funded accounts so that I can start fresh. I really appreciate them working with me, hearing my concerns, fixing the issues, and know that they do want to help traders. Thank you to ETF for taking care of this issue for me. I hope that no one else in the future has this issue of an error account liquidation.
