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.
Forex firm whose Omo 2-Step programme publishes the same percentage objectives across every account size, with a fee refundable on the third withdrawal.
AquaFunded is a Forex / CFD prop firm funding traders up to $400,000 through Instant, One Step and Two Step models in Standard and Pro variants, with a 90% profit split and a bi-weekly reward cycle. Its Two Step rules and prices were read from the firm's own configurator; the remaining models are carried from the public directory.

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.
Market
Maven TradingForex · CFD
AquaFundedForex · CFD
Both operate in the same market, so their published rules use comparable units.
Entry price
Maven TradingForex · CFD · USD · one-time · $19
AquaFundedForex · CFD · USD · one-time · $5
Entry price is the advertised figure only. Activation and reset charges are recorded separately and often decide the real cost.
Profit split (base)
Maven Trading80%
AquaFunded90%
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.
Choice of plans
Maven Trading6 options
AquaFunded63 options
More options means more chance of a size and structure that suits you; it says nothing about the quality of any single plan.
Evaluation structures
Maven Trading2-step
AquaFunded2-step · 1-step · Instant
One-step and two-step evaluations distribute the same difficulty differently. Neither is easier as a rule.
Evidence coverage
Maven Trading70% documented
AquaFunded56% documented
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 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.
