DayTraders.com offers all drawdown types (intraday, EOD and static). The profit split in live accounts is set at 80%. The consistency rule during evaluation is on the better end compared to other firms at 50%, while in live accounts the value ranges between 20% and 30%. The $130 activation fee for Trail and Static and scaling plan in funded accounts might put some traders off. The S2F and S2L offerings carry a higher price tag and the consistency rule tightens to 20%-25%, but come with a $0 activation fee. DayTraders.com now allows up to 15 funded accounts per trader, and traders can pass evaluation within 2 days.

The intraday trailing drawdown trails in real-time from the account’s highest balance. During the evaluation phase, the trail stops once the liquidation threshold reaches the profit target. In the Pro (funded) account, the trail stops when the account balance reaches the initial starting balance. The consistency rule moves from 50% during evaluation to 30% in the Pro account. Payouts are available every 8 qualifying days. Max 15 Pro accounts allowed. Real-time data fees are included free of charge.

The EOD trailing drawdown only updates at the end of each trading day, giving traders more room to manage positions intraday. Hitting the daily loss limit is a soft breach, and positions are liquidated and the account is locked until the next trading day. The consistency rule moves from 50% during evaluation to 30% in the Pro account. Payouts are available every 8 qualifying days. Max 5 EOD Pro accounts allowed. Real-time data fees ($55 value) are included free of charge.

The static drawdown never moves. The max loss limit is fixed from the start and does not trail as profits grow. The consistency rule relaxes from 50% during evaluation to 30% in the Pro account. Payouts are available every 8 qualifying days. Max 15 Pro accounts allowed. Real-time data fees are included free of charge. Note: the 100K and 150K Static plans share the same contract limit of 8 minis / 80 micros.

Note: the 25K S2F plan has no daily loss limit, while the 50K and 150K plans do apply a daily loss limit.

S2L (Straight to Live) is a direct path to a real live futures account. The evaluation phase requires 8 qualifying days and a 25% consistency rule; no consistency rule applies once live. Contract limits shown are for the live account phase (1 mini / 10 micros less than during evaluation). The intraday trailing drawdown stops trailing once the account balance reaches the initial starting balance (trail stops at account size). There is no activation fee, and the live account activation fee is free. Payout frequency is daily, with a profit split of 80/20 in favour of the trader. Scaling is available on live accounts. Real-time data fees ($150 value) and platform license are included free of charge. Setup takes 1–5 business days.
