Every other ranking sorts by affiliate commission. We rank on the rules that break or scale a scalper: EOD/static drawdown, scalp-fit and copy trading. No pay-to-rank.
Position on this index depends on fit for one kind of trader: the ES futures tick-scalper copy-trading across multiple funded accounts. Not on who pays the highest commission.
EOD or static — never intraday trailing. Intraday trailing is the #1 account-killer when scaling across accounts.
No minimum hold time or anti-(micro)scalp rule that bites 2–8 tick entries. Green = clean, amber = grey, red = clashes.
Allowed across your own accounts, reachable via Rithmic/Tradovate, with per-follower stop & close control.
Eval-fee model (one-time vs monthly), eval rebilling, activation and funded rebilling. The real total cost per account.
Some "Visit firm" links are affiliate links: if you choose a firm through one, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. This does not affect the ranking, which follows only the criteria above. Firms without an affiliate program sit on exactly the same basis on the index. Trading with prop firms carries risk; verify every rule on the firm's own help center before purchase.
