Day count assumes 1% account growth per day, capped by the product's own daily loss limit. Blank cells are figures the firm does not publish.
Each cell shows every value that firm's current products hold. Where a firm disagrees with itself the products are named — those are the rows a firm-level table has to flatten, and the ones that decide whether your strategy is allowed. 13 of 16 rows split this way in this matchup.

Alpha Pro prices now separate targets and payout schedules
Select the payout schedule before comparing fees. Alpha Three is excluded from this verified refresh and keeps its September 14 product date because new-purchase availability is unsettled.
Alpha Swing pricing article and observed selector do not align
The captured Swing fees are published terms, not confirmation that a new Swing purchase is available in your checkout. Confirm the exact account type before paying.
Alpha Three has published prices but unsettled purchase availability
Treat the retained September 14 Three record as a historical rule reference only; it has no current price. Confirm availability before budgeting for a new account; this observation does not refresh the product capture.
Alpha Capital published-fee coverage now separates Pro schedules
Use the latest target-specific and payout-specific fee rows. Three remains outside this verified refresh, and availability watches must still be checked before purchase.
Alpha One 10% selector confirms on-demand and disables bi-weekly
Plan cash flow around the on-demand 2% gross-profit minimum and 40% best-day rule, rather than assuming a fixed 14-day One payout schedule.
Alpha One variant availability differs between the article and selector
The stored Alpha One record is explicitly One 10% on-demand. Confirm whether another variant is actually purchasable and which rules apply; a visible selector choice is not a completed checkout.
Alpha Pro 25K quotes need a target and payout schedule
Use the row for the selected target and payout schedule. Do not transfer the generic $197 quote to Pro 6% or average the two amounts.
Every figure above is read from these pages. Products older than 30 days are removed from the comparison until they are recaptured, so a missing product means stale data, not a discontinued plan.
These directory fields describe the firms, not a universal product rule. The sourced product tables above decide the exact fee, split, drawdown and trading conditions. Directory context is not independently refreshed by this comparison; verify platform and payment availability for the exact programme and country.
