Which should you pick?
Tradeify: Tradeify's Advanced plan uses end-of-day trailing drawdown, which meaningfully raises pass rates versus intraday-trailing competitors. One phase, no consistency rule on the eval, and reasonable payout gates. Solid middle-of-the-road choice — not the cheapest, not the strictest.
FundedNext Futures: FundedNext's futures arm is newer than its forex flagship. One-phase static drawdown option makes it attractive for cautious traders. Split is competitive; the main tradeoff is a smaller track record of consistent payouts vs. Apex or Topstep.
On the numbers above, Tradeify is the better expected-value choice for a balanced profile — but archetypes are not you. A scalper and a swing trader can flip this ranking entirely, because drawdown type punishes lumpy P&L far more than frequent small P&L. Run your own drawdown numbers first, then simulate your real stats.
