Our verdict

Elite Trader Funding gives funded futures traders the strongest payout share on BrokerCue at 100%, with a 1 step evaluation and regular payouts. The catch is entry cost: a challenge price of $220 and $87 in funded account fees suit traders confident enough to pass quickly.

The company behind it

Elite Trader Funding trades as Elite Trader Funding LLC and is based in the US, having started trading in 2022. It operates as a prop firm rather than a broker, which is why no regulator or client protection scheme is listed. Support runs on email, chat and help centre, so help centre articles and a community sit alongside email and chat.

How Elite Trader Funding compares

Frequently asked questions

How much does an Elite Trader Funding challenge cost?+

The challenge price is $220, above the median of €51.74 across prop firms. A failed evaluation means paying that price again, so budget for more than one attempt.

What profit split do funded traders receive?+

Funded accounts keep 100% of the profits, ranking at the top of the profit split comparison. That is the main reason to pass here despite the higher challenge price.

How many evaluation steps are there?+

The evaluation is 1 step, so traders pass a single stage rather than sitting two rounds. Account sizes run from 10K to 250K.

Are there ongoing account fees?+

Funded accounts carry fees of $87, which apply once a trader is funded rather than during the challenge. These sit on top of the $220 challenge price.

What markets can Elite Trader Funding traders use?+

The firm covers futures only, so it suits traders focused on futures contracts. Traders wanting shares, ETFs or crypto will not find them here.

How often can funded traders withdraw profits?+

Payouts follow a Twice weekly, Mondays and Wednesdays; LIVE ELITE daily schedule, which keeps withdrawals frequent once an account is funded. That regularity suits traders living on trading income.

Which platforms are supported?+

Traders can work across NinjaTrader, Tradovate and TradingView, covering charting, data feeds and execution choices. That range suits both day traders and those running larger futures accounts.

Is Elite Trader Funding regulated?+

No regulator is listed for this firm, which is typical of prop firms running funded accounts on simulated capital. It trades as Elite Trader Funding LLC and is based in the US, so no client protection scheme is claimed.
