TradeDay's own products disagree on 8 terms. On profit split it is 50% on Quick Pay - Intraday and Quick Pay - End of Day, versus 80% on Fast Pass - End of Day. 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: Apex Trader Funding EOD Trail - Standard and Intraday Trail - Standard. The latest capture records no complete entry price for them, so they are 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.

Apex moved new purchases to 4 one-time evaluation paths
Older Apex reviews can describe a different billing and drawdown structure. Match the exact product shown at checkout, verify the dynamic fee, and note that the current evaluation may pass in one day without a minimum-day rule.
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.
Scored out of 5 by Trustpilot users, not by us. Where Trustpilot has pulled a firm's aggregate rating we say so rather than leaving a blank.
