Topstep is a Chicago-based futures prop firm that has been funding traders for over a decade. The program runs in three stages: the Trading Combine, a simulated account on a monthly subscription; an Express Funded Account; then a Live Funded Account trading the firm’s capital. One rule ends a run, letting your balance reach the Maximum Loss Limit, while the Daily Loss Limit only deactivates the account for that session. Payouts start at $125 and follow a 90/10 split, released after five winning days of $150 or, on the Consistency path, three days inside a 40% target. Expect published, explicit rules.

How you pay
Responsible Trading Advantage

Billed monthly until you pass or cancel. A reset restarts the challenge at the same price as one month; one reset credit is included when your plan rebills. Profit target, consistency target and loss limits must all be met before an account is funded. Summary only — the full rules apply.
