Trade day is trusted, no issues with them, their pricing is a bit higher than others, and their payouts are trusted and paid through rise, no denials from them, interface isnt the best, still a bit clunky and not everything is automated and still needs manual review processing.

TradeDay EOD accounts are one of the best options for traders looking for daily payouts. There is no consistency rule in the funded stage,only during the evaluation stage. Their support team is fast, responsive, and helpful. The rules are straightforward, transparent, and there are no hidden conditions. Overall, TradeDay is a great prop firm, and the daily payout feature makes it an excellent choice.

Decided to try this firm out and so far has been a decent experience. Rules seem fair enough and everything has gone smoothly. The only concern i had was in their actual rules it had some wording that seemed very strict when it came to ip address and traveling. I spoke with support and they were attentive and helpful and basically told me not to worry about it. It does make me nervous that they could potentially use made up ip address issues to avoid payouts in the future but so far i have not seen any case of this. I think this firm is worthwhile to try if you already are funded in some of the most popular and trustworthy options. The new eod accounts they have are competitive with other options out there.

Decent sales/prices, not really a fan of intraday from the account I purchased, they did release some new plans recently, also not a big fan of the 5 day evaluation.

TradeDay is a solid prop firm with a lot to offer. The support team is quick, friendly, and actually knows what they're talking about — any question I had was answered fast and clearly. The trading rules are clean and transparent, which makes it easy to focus on trading rather than worrying about rule violations. No daily loss limits and EOD trailing drawdown give you real breathing room as a trader. The platform is intuitive and easy to navigate from day one. Overall a good experience and a firm I'd recommend to futures traders looking for a structured, well-run environment with genuine support behind them.

Review

It's an established firm but not better than the big ones. The new plans seem solid but the 80/20 split and if you choose Trailing Drawdown doesn't seem worth for their pricing. If you tried every other big firm, you can try them. They are trustworthy and are paying. Solid...

Fair rules, great value, and a clear path to trading real capital with a live account. Generous withdrawals with up to five funded accounts and a passed eval as backupp. Ample room to scale up. Got my first payout within 24 hours — even on Sturday. Their "Same Day Payout" worked exactly as advertised. Couldn't be happier with them, they're in my Top 3 firms of all time. Them being based in Chicago, home of Futures trading with the CME also makes them highly reputable and industry leaders since 2020.

Review

TradeDay was below average for me compared to other futures prop firms I have used. The main issue was that some of the rules felt too restrictive and made trading less comfortable. Instead of focusing only on setups and execution, I often felt like I had to think too much about limitations and account conditions. That made the overall experience more stressful than it needed to be. The platform itself was decent, but I did not feel the overall experience matched the level of some other firms in the market. Support was okay, although response times could definitely improve. I also felt that the value offered by the firm could be better considering the competition in the futures prop industry right now. Overall, TradeDay was not the best experience for me personally and I would rate it below average compared to other firms I have traded with.

Review

I tried TradeDay for futures trading, but personally my experience was not that great. The platform and dashboard are simple enough to use, but I felt that the overall trading conditions and rules were not very comfortable for my trading style. One of the main problems for me was that the rules felt too restrictive at times, especially when trading volatile market moves. It sometimes felt difficult to trade naturally without constantly worrying about account limitations. Compared to some other futures prop firms, I did not feel the flexibility was good enough. I also expected a smoother overall experience considering the pricing. Customer support was okay, but the firm did not really stand out to me in terms of value or trader friendliness. While some traders may still like the structure, I personally found other prop firms better in terms of rules, payouts, and trading freedom. Overall, my experience with TradeDay was average and not something I would rank among my top futures prop firms. It may work for certain traders, but it was not the best fit for me personally. If anyone still wants to try it, you can use the SMART coupon code for a discount, and after your first payout you may also qualify for a free account through Smart Prop Firm rewards.

Review for tradeday

Review

TradeDay has impressed me with its transparency and trader-friendly approach. From the beginning, the rules were clearly explained, and I never felt confused about what was expected. The evaluation process is fair and encourages disciplined trading rather than risky behavior. One thing I really appreciate is that the company seems focused on helping traders develop consistency. The platform is stable, and tracking progress is simple. Customer support has been professional and quick to respond whenever I've had questions. The payout process has been smooth, and there haven't been any unexpected surprises. While every trader's experience may be different, TradeDay has built a reputation for being reliable and straightforward. Overall, it's a great choice for traders who value clear rules, transparency, and a professional trading environment.
