Compare firms
Two whole firms side by side: what each publishes across markets, platforms, fees, loss models, permissions and payouts. Rex describes differences and never declares a winner.
Comparing two purchasable plans instead? Compare challenges.
Elite Trader Funding LLC runs futures evaluations in a simulated environment across six drawdown styles — 1-Step live trailing, End of Day, Static, Diamond Hands, Fast Track and Direct to Funded. Passing moves a trader to an Elite Sim-Funded account that still trades simulated capital but pays real rewards of up to 100%, capped at $25,000 per trader before the LIVE ELITE stage.
Futures firm whose MAX Standard evaluation is a monthly subscription with an end-of-day evaluation drawdown and no activation fee after passing.

Quick highlights
The differences most likely to change a decision, stated neutrally. Rex names no winner, because which of these matters depends entirely on how you trade.

Both operate in the same market, so their published rules use comparable units.

Entry price is the advertised figure only. Activation and reset charges are recorded separately and often decide the real cost.
Profit split (base)

A published base share is a commitment. A ceiling with no stated base is not, and Rex records it as not published rather than as the headline number.

More options means more chance of a size and structure that suits you; it says nothing about the quality of any single plan.

This measures how much of each firm Rex could source, not how good the firm is. A lower figure means less was published, not worse terms.
What the split difference is actually worth
Your assumptions, each firm's published split. Not a forecast, and not a reason on its own to pick either firm.
A 8% return on $100,000 is $8,000 gross per cycle, before each firm’s split.

This firm publishes a ceiling rather than a base share, so the model applies 80% and says so rather than using the headline figure.

This firm publishes a ceiling rather than a base share, so the model applies 80% and says so rather than using the headline figure.
This is arithmetic on your own assumptions, not a forecast. It ignores the thing that actually decides the outcome — whether you can reach a payout at all under each firm’s loss limit — and it ignores activation fees, resets and trading costs. Use it to see how much the split difference is worth, then go and read the drawdown model.

Change history
Terms change quietly. Each change is recorded only when two accepted observations differ; an empty list is the honest state for a first-seen record.

Recent changes
What changed on this firm's own pages, when Rex read the difference, and what it changed from.
No material changes recorded yet. Rex records a change only when two accepted observations of the same field differ, so a first-seen record has nothing to show. See this firm’s change history.
