Review for daytraders

Review

Daytraders was created by people formerly at Apex, so you can see a lot of the same dashboard experience between the two firms. I like that they recently allowed you to scale all the way to 15 accounts, but there were also price increases and payout caps included with that. One big downside is that they don't have Tradovate yet, and you can't use NinjaTrader with their Rithmic login. But they do have very fast customer service response on their Discord, and the scalability with the 15 accounts is a plus.

Review

My overall experience with DayTraders has been excellent. The customer support is very fast and helpful, and the trading platforms offered are of the highest quality, ensuring great stability during operations. The only downside where they fall short is the activation fee charged for the funded account. Other than that, the prop firm delivers a very solid service.

Review for daytraders

Review

I got myself 300k trail account, basically meaning intraday trailing, rules are good, profit to dd ratio is optimal, only thing I think they should improve is their trading platform, they don't have ninjatrader/tradovate, which most firm supports and they are easy to use as compared to ONYX, quanttower, ATAS. Personally me I don't use heat maps/orderflow so for me trading directly from tradingview(tradovate) helps more as compared to complicated trading system.

The payout is quick, but Plane payment platform takes time to transfer funds; that's the only drawback with them

Review for daytraders

Review

I used DT several months ago, and my overall experience was very positive. There's nothing unwritten -- no secrets, no bait-n-switches, etc. Very high integrity with these guys. Chat / Email Support was very responsive, and my only wish is that they'd get Tradovate -- love that they allow microscalping too, because sometimes I'd see a big momentum candle and jump in for a few seconds. That's smart trading in my opinion, and I'm glad we're not penalized at DT for that. Highly recommend.

Daytraders are excellent! Love their propfirm and relatively cheap accounts. I think when they upgraded their account allowance up to 15 accounts to be a fantastic upgrade. My preferred platform of choice in NinjaTrader so I wish they offered that as an option, but otherwise I have been using Quantower.

Not recommended for daytraders

Review

Overall, the firm provides a smooth trading experience, and I had no major issues with the platform. However, if your goal is long-term scaling and building a larger trading business, I would not recommend this firm. I had five funded Straight to Live accounts and successfully met all the requirements for my first payout. The problem started when I became eligible for that payout. I was given only two options. The first option was to take the full payout, but my current account would be closed, and I would receive a new three $150,000 Straight to Live Evaluation account. This means I would have to go through the evaluation process again before getting access to a live account. The second option was to move my $15,000 payout balance into a live account and continue trading. However, under this option, the firm would take a 20% commission on future profits. In my view, neither option is attractive for traders who are looking to scale consistently. After working hard to achieve the payout requirements, I expected a more straightforward payout process. Instead, I felt forced to either restart the evaluation process or use my payout funds to continue trading under a profit-sharing arrangement. The trading conditions and overall experience are smooth, but the scaling model and payout structure are disappointing. If your goal is to get one or two payouts, this firm may be suitable. However, if you are looking for long-term growth, account scaling, and flexibility with payouts, I would suggest considering other firms.
