The short version
What actually separates them
3 fields on the record split For Traders and Funding Traders. Everything else either matches or is not on the record yet.
A daily loss limit ends the session, not the account — but it decides how many attempts a bad open costs you.
Entry cost for the cheapest account each firm sells, before any live discount.
How long a funded account must run before the first withdrawal is allowed.
Identical on both: drawdown model.
Not comparable yet: consistency rule, activation fee, trader profit split — at least one of the two firms has no figure on record, so we do not draw a conclusion from it. A blank here means we have not confirmed the rule, not that the firm has none.

Drawdown
TieBoth use a static drawdown.

Rules

Fig. 02 — Score breakdown
Where each firm is stronger
A dash means the factor is unscored for that firm — the evidence it needs (a founding year, a public review sample) is not on record, so its weight moves to the factors that do have evidence rather than counting as a zero.

Compared at a $50,000 account
| At $50,000 | For Traders | Funding Traders |
|---|---|---|
| Max drawdown | Not recorded | Not recorded |
| Profit target | Not recorded | $5,000 |
A bigger max drawdown gives more room; a lower profit target is easier to clear. A dash means that figure is not on record at this size, so no checkmark is awarded either way. Review the exact figures for your selected account.
