FirmFax verdict

The Trading Pit Futures is a solid but mixed futures prop firm best taken through its Futures Prime (66/100), which uses a more forgiving end-of-day trailing drawdown with a 40% consistency rule to clear.

Verified discount

Activation fee waived, $129 to $0

The futures page and futures checkout show the $129 activation fee struck to $0 on the $50K, $100K and $150K tiers, with no code required. The Trading Pit also runs a SEPT25 banner for 25% off Prime challenges of $50K and above; every futures challenge is a Prime challenge at $50K or more, but no futures page shows the banner or a coupon field, so we do not state that the code applies here.
