Apex Trader Funding - Futures Firm Reviews

Im overall very happy with my experience at Apex as a Nasdaq futures day trader. Their prices for account challenges are industry-leading when you factor in their near-constant sales. Once you pass a challenge, you pay a single activation fee and then you can attempt additional challenges to increase your capital without an additional activation fee, which is fantastic. I trade through Tradingview using Tradovate and the fills/executions are good.

Affordable, fast I have no complaints at all about this firm they always run sells it's not like they try to run your pockets very good company some people said the consistency rule but it makes sense to me

-This firm allows you to trade 20 accounts max which is a game changer - and 1 DAY PASS!!! -They do have trailing drawdown on unrealized trade which can be annoying, however on the 50k accounts they give $2,500 in drawdown (most firms have $2,000 on their 50k accounts) so this is $500 MORE in drawdown to compensate for the Trailing style -keep an eye out of the 2 30% consistency rules and you shouldn't have any issues making $40,000+ per month with 20 accounts

I purchased a 25k account last 7/27 and was able to pass it 8/16. The process was smooth and fast, after passing, you'll get an email for you to sign the contract and pay the activation fee, and your Performance Account will be instantly activated after that. This was my first futures account, and I really enjoyed trading futures. It's better than forex. But after days of trading, I got flagged by their risk department due to my risks, which I think I'm not violating. They have a 30% risk rule that all open trades must not exceed 30% of your profits, but on their website it says, if your account is still small, and has not yet reached the threshold (in my case it's 1,500) you can use the 30% of your trailing threshold. This is clearly written on their FAQ on their website. That's why I don't understand why my account got flagged by their risk department. I always make sure I do not exceed the 30% of my trailing threshold. 😔 So if you're planning to buy futures, I do not recommend the 25k if you're not a sniper and trading GC/MGC 😅

I have a 100k static account and in my opinion it’s really complicated to be ble to withdraw from this account because they have a lot of rules like the 30% on consistency You also have to make at least 2000 for the buffer zone and the drawdown is for less than 700

I've been trading with Apex for over 8 months now and loving the experience, the platforms they offer are pretty easy to learn and use and the massive promotions they often offer combined with the amount of accounts they allow a user to have make them Top 1 on my futures firm list.

I’ve been trading with Apex for two weeks now and I’m very satisfied with the experience. I really appreciate having both TradingView and Tradovate as trading platform options, which makes execution smooth and flexible. Apex’s support team has also been very helpful and responsive. Overall, a great start so far!

I've been trading with Apex for over a year. They have both positive and negative points. Initially, I can say that yes, it's a respected propfirm and lives up to its reputation. Positive points: larger accounts (250k-300k); excellent discount coupons (90%, although this discount hasn't been available lately); low activation fee; good customer support; several trading platform options; no rules or restriction for trading news. Negative points: many rules are outdated and don't keep up with the competition; the 30% consistency rule is too strict, it's not justified when there are other very restrictive rules for traders; Trailing drawdown is the most tyrannical rule among propfirms, e.g., in a $300,000 account, the target is $20,000, so even reaching $19,999, only $1 dollar to reach the target, if the trader loses $7,500 from this, even still having $12,499 in profits, they will breach their account. It simply doesn't make any sense. Trailing drawdown is extremely restrictive and unnecessary, so EOD (End-of-Day) is a much fairer rule for all parties. The rule of payouts every 8 trading days is too restrictive, The dashboard, although updated in the last month, is still being improved and has some delays; Apex shut down its Discord and never reactivated the community, which is bad; there was a lot of useful information and interaction. There are no products that compete with the competition, such as direct accounts, one-time payment fee evaluation, evaluation with no fee activation, and in this regard, Apex promised new products and never delivered them. Finally, I presented points that I consider important to highlight. But as I've already stated, I've been trading on Apex for over a year and intend to continue. The rules are indeed restrictive, but once they are met, Apex deliver the payment to the trader, so although the rules are restrictive, the trust reinforces a serious platform and a partner for the trader. The negatives points I show out are criticisms that serve as guidance for Apex's improvement, so I hope that if anyone reads this, and being a member of the Apex team, they will focus on changing some of their rules to offer a better product for traders and reinforce the trust we place in their activities. Greetings to all.

I’ve used this firm for over two months. It’s good, but not very beginner-friendly. The rules to qualify for a payout are quite complex, which makes it very difficult for new traders to receive their payout.

I bought a 50K account from Apex Trader Funding, and the experience has been really good so far. The platform runs smoothly, execution is fast, and their support team is super helpful and responsive.
