Kane’s Review of Top One Futures
Kane Simons (TraderKane)
Founder, Prop Firm Compare · bought an Elite Daily 150K evaluation, now working through it on Tradovate
Top One Futures sells more ways in than almost any firm I have used, and I went with Elite Daily, its evaluation built around daily payouts. I bought a 150K with my own money, no gifted or sponsored account, and traded it on Tradovate. I am still working through the evaluation, so this review stops where my experience does. The thing to understand before buying is that Elite Daily puts its consistency rule in the evaluation and drops it once you are funded.
What I liked
Cheap for the size: $220 for a 150K with 60% off
Code LAB gets the best available discount
No activation fee
No consistency rule once funded
Daily payouts on the funded account
End of day drawdown
A route to live capital after three payouts
News trading is allowed
Customer support has been good whenever I have needed it
What to watch
A 40% consistency rule applies during the evaluation
Contract limits are low for the size: 7 minis or 70 micros on a 150K
A $1,850 daily loss limit applies in both stages
The funded drawdown is smaller than the evaluation drawdown: $3,500 against $4,500 on a 150K
A $4,500 buffer must stay in a 150K funded account, so only profit above it can be withdrawn
Payouts are capped at $2,250 per request on a 150K, with a $500 minimum
After your first payout, at least half of each new request must come from profit made since your last payout
My Experience With Top One Futures
I bought an Elite Daily 150K and traded it on Tradovate. I used code LAB at checkout. Credentials came through immediately after buying, and I am now working through the evaluation.
On a 150K, Elite Daily costs $220 with 60% off, against a list price of $549, with no activation fee and a $215 reset. The evaluation asks for $9,000 profit inside a $4,500 end of day drawdown, with a $1,850 daily loss limit and a 40% consistency rule. Contracts are capped at 7 minis.
Once funded, the consistency rule disappears and payouts become daily, but the drawdown tightens to $3,500. That smaller cushion is the detail to plan around after you pass. Current pricing and codes are on the Top One Futures discount codes page, and the full lineup is on the challenges page.
My Payout Experience
I have not taken a payout from Top One yet, as I am still in the evaluation. I will update this section once I have been paid.
Each payout needs profit equal to a percentage of your starting balance: 6% for the first, 5% for the second and 4% after that. On a 150K, that means $9,000, then $7,500, then $6,000. Top One says payouts process in under 12 hours on average and that accounts move to live after three payouts. That is Top One's published policy, not my own experience.
Which Account Would I Choose?
Kane's Pick: Elite Daily 150K
This is the account I bought. No activation fee, no consistency rule once funded and daily payouts make the funded stage straightforward, and at $220 it is cheap for a 150K.
I have not traded Elite Access, Instant or Ignite. On published rules, Elite Access is cheaper to start but charges an activation fee and adds a consistency rule once funded, while Instant and Ignite skip the evaluation. Compare them on the challenges page.
Who I Would Recommend Top One Futures To
Choose Top One Futures if you want a cheap 150K, end of day drawdown, daily payouts and a defined route to live capital. If you need more contracts per account, compare Lucid Trading.
