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.

Tradeify list prices and homepage promotions can diverge
The comparison stores the stable purchase price, not a temporary coupon or reset. Confirm the final discounted amount, reset cost, and product name in checkout before paying.
Alpha Capital disagrees on Alpha One payout schedules
Confirm whether the purchased Alpha One account offers a 14-day cycle, on-demand requests or both before planning cash flow.
Alpha Capital's own pages disagree on a 25K Pro price
The $137 figure is retained only for the explicitly labelled 6% product. Verify the selected target and final checkout total before purchase.
Alpha One prices do not identify the rule variant
Confirm the selected variant, its target, drawdown, account-size ceiling and final fee before paying; do not assume the stored fee buys the 10% rule set.
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.
