Loading...There is a modest pricing gap between these firms. My Funded Futures comes in at $75 for the $50K evaluation while the other charges $125 — a $50 difference. That is roughly the cost of a reset at most firms, so it is worth factoring in if you budget for multiple attempts. Check available Alpha Futures discount codes and My Funded Futures discount codes for additional savings.
The profit split gap is notable. Alpha Futures returns 90% of your profits, putting $900 in your pocket for every $1,000 earned. The other firm's 80% split means you would receive $800 on that same amount — a $100 per-thousand difference that scales with every payout.
Maximum drawdowns are close ($1,750 at Alpha Futures vs $1,500), so the buffer difference is minimal.
My Funded Futures sets the bar lower with a $3,000 profit target versus $4,000. Additionally, My Funded Futures requires fewer minimum trading days (1 vs 2).
Alpha Futures does not enforce a daily loss limit while My Funded Futures caps daily losses at $1,000. These operational differences can shape your day-to-day experience, particularly if your strategy depends on volatility around economic releases or requires more intraday flexibility.
