Futures Prop Firm Rule Changes Log (2026): Every Lineup, Price and Payout Change We've Verified
PickMyFuturesProp · 2026-09-24
A running, dated log of futures prop firm rule changes — retired plans, new account types, price moves, payout-rule edits and firms that shut down — verified against the firms' own pages on each audit. Newest first.
Prop firms change their rules constantly, and most of it happens quietly — a plan disappears from the checkout, a consistency percentage moves, a code stops working. This page is our running log. Every entry below was verified against the firm's own site or help center on the date shown, using the same audit that feeds our comparison tables (our methodology is here). Newest first. If you spot a change we've missed, tell us and we'll verify it.
September 2026 audit (verified 2026-09-24)
- FTMO Futures launched (beta). The largest forex prop firm entered futures in September 2026 with two monthly plans: Growth (no daily loss limit, 40% consistency, $2,000 to $5,000 drawdown) and Pro (hard daily loss limit, 50% consistency, wider drawdown, higher payout caps). 90/10, no activation fee. Beta — rules may still move.
- TickTickTrader is effectively defunct. Its site returned errors and support was unreachable on our audit; it has been removed from our comparison.
- My Funded Futures retired Flex and rebuilt the lineup around Builder, Rapid, Rapid EOD (daily payouts with end-of-day drawdown at both stages, 25K and 50K only) and Pro. All one-time fees with no activation. The public CLUB code and our Pick code both run at 40% off.
- Alpha Futures closed its Premium line and, in the July 2026 NinjaTrader breakup, voided pending Premium payouts. The current lineup is Zero, Standard, Advanced and Direct on AlphaTrader, WealthCharts and TradingView. We demoted Alpha from our featured deals; the review carries a full disclosure.
- Goat Funded Futures now runs six plans (Daily, Flex, EOD, 1-Day-Pass, Instant Classic, Instant Lite). Its Trustpilot score has fallen to about 2.8 and it has been de-listed by at least one major aggregator; we demoted it from featured deals and rewrote the review.
- FundedNext Futures restructured to Rapid Daily, Rapid Pro, Legacy, Flex and Bolt.
- Funded Futures Network retired the Standard OG / Express OG evaluations (July 1, 2026) and now sells Standard MAX (monthly) and STEADY (one-time).
- Funded Futures Family moved to V.2 (July 2026): Prime, Velocity, Premier+ (choose intraday or end-of-day drawdown at purchase) and Straight-to-Funded, all 90/10 from the first dollar, no daily loss limit, no activation; 40% consistency on Premier+ for accounts bought after September 9, 2026.
- Tradeify raised Growth prices roughly 10% (50K now $145 list / $87 with code) and tightened the 100K and 150K Growth drawdowns to $3,500 and $5,000. Select and Lightning tabs verified from the help-center price reference.
- TradeDay launched TradeDay 2.0 with the Fast Pass plans and cut Quick Pay Intraday prices (50K $131 list / $58.95 with PICK); a 25K size was added to both Quick Pay plans.
- Take Profit Trader replaced its standing code with NOFEE40: 40% off for life plus no activation fee.
- Futures Elite raised Elite prices (50K $293 list, about $205 with code).
- Lucid Trading added a Daily payout plan; checkout prices are now hidden behind login, so we show rules without prices until we can verify them.
- Top One Futures widened the Instant Sim Funded trailing drawdown on 100K and 150K ($3,000 to $4,000, $4,500 to $5,250) and runs public codes SEPT (45 to 50% off) and BOGO.
- Bulenox (August 2026) moved to one-time fees, added a 30-day Qualification window and cut the maximum number of Master-level accounts from 11 to 5. The first $10,000 of payouts is still 100% yours.
- The5ers Futures permanently cut Swing prices and added 100K and 150K Swing sizes (July 23, 2026): $69 / $120 / $189 / $219.
- Earn2Trade (July 2026) dropped its 10-day minimum and moved to a per-withdrawal split (50% below a threshold, 80% above it); Tradovate and TradingView were added in March 2026.
- Elite Trader Funding appears to have changed its activation model (one-time vs monthly options); we're re-verifying the exact figures before updating the tables.
How to use this log
Rule changes are why a review written six months ago can be wrong today. Before you buy, check the firm's card in the comparison tool — every plan shows its verified date — and read the firm's current rules page yourself. We re-run the audit weekly and add dated entries here whenever something material moves.
