Rules to know first
Drawdown model
Trailing (intraday)On the best route, the drawdown follows your highest unrealised balance tick by tick, so giving back open profit can breach the account even on a green day.

Research notes
OneUp has a longer operating history and official funded-trader help documentation. Billing is split: the trader pays half upfront and the other half as the activation fee once approved for funding, so activation should be shown as size-specific.
