Looking for a prop firm for futures trading? MyFundedFutures is worth a shot.

This review goes into their features, costs and how they stack up so you can decide if they’re right for you. We’ll cover their profit-sharing, platforms and all the practical stuff you’d want to know before committing your time or money.

Features

MyFundedFutures has three main account types: Starter, Milestone and Expert. Each one is designed for different trading styles and experience levels.

The Starter account starts at $80/month for a $50K balance. You only need to trade a few days and there’s no max evaluation period.

If you hit the profit target you can get funded in one day. Contract limits depend on account size—3 for $50K, 6 for $100K and 9 for $150K.

The Milestone account swaps monthly fees for a one-time payment. Fees start at $229 for $25K and go up to $665 for $150K.

This one uses a phased evaluation, each with its own profit target. Contract limits match the Starter account for each size.

The Expert account is for more advanced traders. Monthly fees are higher ($165-$375) but you get bigger contract limits—up to 5 for $50K, 10 for $100K and 15 for $150K.

Expert accounts get bi-weekly payouts once you hit buffer requirements. That’s handy if you’re looking for more frequent withdrawals.

All accounts use an End-of-Day trailing drawdown. Losses get calculated after the trading day is over, not during the action.

That gives you a bit more breathing room especially when markets get crazy. It’s a small thing but it can make a difference.

Supported trading platforms:

  • NinjaTrader
  • Tradovate
  • TradingView
  • Quantower
  • Volumetrica and Volsys

You can trade a wide range of futures markets:

  • Equity index futures (S&P 500, NASDAQ, Dow)
  • Commodity futures (Gold, Silver, Oil, Natural Gas)
  • Agricultural futures (Corn, Soybeans, Wheat)
  • Foreign exchange futures (Euro, Japanese Yen)
  • Interest rate futuresOne thing that stands out is their profit-sharing. You keep 100% of your first $10,000 in profits, then 90% after that.

Honestly that’s better than what a lot of other prop firms offer, at least in the beginning.

Costs

Fees depend on the account you choose. Starter accounts use a monthly subscription:

  • $50K account: $80/month
  • $100K account: $150/month
  • $150K account: $220/month

Milestone accounts use a one-time fee:

  • $25K account: $229
  • $50K account: $445
  • $100K account: $555
  • $150K account: $665

Expert accounts have higher monthly fees with bigger contract limits:

  • $50K account: $165/month
  • $100K account: $265/month
  • $150K account: $375/month

You’ll also pay commission fees on each trade. These depend on your platform and what you’re trading.

For Tradovate:

  • E-mini NASDAQ (NQ): $4.26 per round trip
  • E-mini S&P 500 (ES): $4.26 per round trip
  • Micro E-mini S&P (MES): $1.42 per round trip
  • Crude Oil (CL): $4.60 per round trip
  • Euro FX (6E): $4.80 per round trip

For Rithmic:

  • E-mini NASDAQ (NQ): $4.30 per round trip
  • Micro E-mini S&P (MES): $1.30 per round trip
  • Crude Oil (CL): $4.40 per round trip
  • Euro FX (6E): $4.80 per round trip

These rates are about what you’d expect in the industry but they do add up.

You can pay with credit/debit cards, crypto or ACH. ACH payments get you a 5% discount, which is nice.

There are no activation fees, unlike some firms that charge up to $140 just to set up your account.

Compared to other prop firms MyFundedFutures is in the middle of the pack on pricing. Monthly fees can add up if you take your time but the Milestone one-time fee is a decent deal for long-term traders.

Summary

MyFundedFutures offers futures traders a pretty good funding option. The combination of account types, profit-sharing and reasonable fees makes them suitable for many types of traders.

Having three account types means you can choose what suits you best. The End-of-Day drawdown is less stressful during market wild swings which I think many traders will appreciate.

The profit-sharing is honestly a highlight. Getting to keep all of your first $10,000 in profits is a big plus especially when other firms start you at 80% or 90%.

Platform support is solid. If you already use NinjaTrader, Tradovate or TradingView you won’t have to learn something new just to get started.

There are some downsides though. Payout schedules especially for Expert accounts can be a bit restrictive since you have to meet buffer requirements first.

The monthly fees for Starter and Expert accounts can eat into your profits if you’re not hitting targets quickly.

Customer support is mostly chat-based, no phone support which some might find limiting. Their YouTube channel has educational content but it’s more general trading than platform specific tutorials.

Pros and Cons

Pros:

  • You get 100% profit split on your first $10,000. After that it’s 90%.
