We track 10 Alpha Capital products and 3 from TradeDay that pass the 30-day source-freshness gate; source checks range from 2026-10-14 to 2026-10-23. These firms sell different instruments — Alpha Capital runs CFD products and TradeDay runs futures — so treat the tables below as a fit comparison, not a like-for-like price race. Alpha Capital offers USD one-time; TradeDay offers USD monthly at this tier. No currency-and-billing class appears on both sides, so we neither convert currencies nor rank a recurring floor against a fixed total.
Compare the 13 source-checked products available here, each with its own fees, split, drawdown and date.

Alpha Capital's own products disagree on 13 terms. On evaluation steps it is 2-step on Alpha Pro (6%, bi-weekly) and Alpha Pro (6%, on-demand) and Alpha Pro (8%, bi-weekly) and Alpha Pro (8%, on-demand) and Alpha Pro (10%, bi-weekly) and Alpha Pro (10%, on-demand) and Alpha Swing (on-demand), versus 1-step on Alpha One (10%, on-demand), versus 3-step on Alpha Three (availability unverified), versus instant funding on Alpha Direct. Which product you buy decides that rule, not which firm you sign with — a firm-level table cannot show this.
Not in the cost tables: Alpha Capital Alpha Three (availability unverified). The latest capture records no complete entry price for it, so it is not ranked on cost.

R-multiple is break-even profit divided by that product's own maximum permitted loss — under 1.00 means you can lose more than you need to make to win the fee back. 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.

R-multiple is break-even profit divided by that product's own maximum permitted loss — under 1.00 means you can lose more than you need to make to win the fee back. 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 Alpha Three record as a documented-rules reference only; it has no current price and is not purchasable. Its capture date (2026-10-23) dates the re-read of the rules and of Alpha's own 'not currently offered for new purchases' statements, not a purchase offer. Confirm availability before budgeting for a new account.
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.
New TradeDay Fast Pass accounts use funded consistency
An account's open date now changes payout eligibility. Check whether the 45% rule applies before sizing a payout request.
TradeDay disagrees on Fast Pass days and a payout cap
The comparison leaves the minimum-day field unknown and does not choose a disputed 100K cap. Confirm both rules for the exact account before purchase or payout.
TradeDay monthly prices were tied to a 55%-off promotion
Treat the table price as a dated promotional snapshot. Recheck the first month, renewal, and reset totals before paying.
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.
