Review for alpha
It's a good platform, but I understand they got pulled. Before that, it was nice. I bought them when it was 50% off. That's why I think it's cheap. If it's not on sale, under 40%, I would not buy them because for the price of 80 to 100 dollars, I got Traded, Lucid, and TopStep, which has much better rules. And I don't really like their premium plans because it's above cost. I understand there is a payout cap, but I don't care.

this prop firm is one of the best and has really good accounts for all types of traders where zero accounts are cheap and are good for traders who want to to learn trading and practice emotions on real evaluations and there is direct and advanced accounts that are for the more experienced traders which have higher payout caps and direct funded which obviously is more pricey and brings you straight to funded and even though I had issues with this firm such as my buying accounts with another cardholer without knowing that it isnt legal then getting banned without even being able to justify my self if you dont have this problem this prop firm can be your favorite but they dont have tradovate anymore and alpha trader which isnt good because they have had alot of issues and traders havent been able to trade many times because of this

I am currently having funded accounts with Alpha future and most probably will request a payout soon, but till now I really like the firm and the main thing that I like about the zero plan is that there is no Activation fee and can pass in 1 day. There is no account out there with this price that gives 1 day passing theme. Will update once I receive the payout!

Review for alpha
I've had a great experience trading with Alpha Futures. The evaluation process was straightforward, the trading rules were clear, and the platform was reliable throughout my trading journey. What I appreciate most is the overall professionalism of the firm. Everything has been well organized, and I always knew what was expected to stay in compliance with the rules. Whenever I needed support, the team was responsive and helpful. If you're looking for a prop firm with clear rules, a solid trading environment, and a professional experience, Alpha Futures is definitely worth considering.

I tried the Alpha Futures 50k Premium plan in June 2026, on their new Alpha Trader platform. I was disappointed with the platform for a number of reasons, but was initially impressed by the firm's initiatives to make things right (namely two free accounts for anyone who had purchased accounts on their Alpha Trader platform the week Alpha Trader was rolled out). Unfortunately as we all know in July 2026 Alpha Futures rugpulled the entire Premium plan and even refused to honor approved payouts, hardly a good look. I will focus my review on the shortcomings of the Alpha Trader platform, as Alpha Futures has dropped support for Tradovate any new customers will pretty much have to trade on Alpha Trader. 1) Basic functionalities, including toggling from dark to bright mode, are nonexistent. 2) Chart trading functionalities, namely OCO bracket (or at least the ability to drag to adjust TP/SL after entering) are also nonexistent! As of June 2026 when I used the platform, I did have the ability to set a limit order (manually set prices), BUT the TP/SL functionalities did not work and were super clunky (each needed the user to manually set a price, and they would not lock in your R:R for the next one, instead keeping the same prices you last set, which is super lame) 3) The Alpha Trader platform continually dropped data and logged me out within 5 minutes of logging in, even if I had just placed a trade. On this count it is worse than ProjectX and DxFeed. 4) Support tends to be slow and reply with canned responses a few hours or days later.

Was great until recent events. Plans were well made with correct pricing when discounted. Could do better and now that they did like topstep while forcing people out of Tradovate, I'd not be returning back. Definitely not in my top 5 anymore.

Great experience using Alpha. Good rules no issues at all :) I love that they have a drawdown system tha doesnt lower based on taking a payout.

Review for alpha
Alpha Futures is hands-down one of the best prop firms I've used. The payout process is fast and reliable — I received my first profit split in under 48 hours with zero hassle. Their rules are fair, the platform is smooth, and the customer support is actually responsive (rare in this industry). The evaluation is challenging but achievable, and the funded accounts have generous scaling. I've been trading with them for months now and couldn't be happier. Highly recommend Alpha Futures to anyone serious about futures trading!

Review for alpha
Overall a great firm, but recently they had introduced a platform called Alpha Trader on their own which had a TON of issues in the beginning, causing massive chaos and pausing the platform temporarily, and also accounts blown because of platform issues. It was really frustrating, but they did reset the affected accounts and even paid compensation like free 50k$ accounts, so can't complain much. But very happy with trading rules, and customer support is back to being active and fast now. Payouts are fast and guaranteed as usual!
