FirmFax verdict
Elite Trader Funding is a strong futures prop firm best taken through its Static Evaluation (90/100), which uses a static drawdown that never moves with no consistency rule on file for this route either way.
80% off first month
Applies to evaluation products except Direct To Funded accounts. The firm’s own promo guide, re-checked 2026-09-05 and updated by the firm in July 2026, still lists 80% off the first month across 1-Step, Static, EOD, Diamond Hands, and Fast Track evaluations; it is redeemed with a public code typed at checkout on the firm’s own site (GOFUTURES as of 2026-09-07), not through a partner-branded link as we previously stated, and pricing returns to standard after the first month.

- Daily loss
- We have not recorded whether this plan has a daily loss limit. A blank row is not the absence of a cap.
