About Prop50k
What this site is
Prop50k independently compares $50k futures prop firm evaluations on CME products (ES, NQ, YM and their micros). It exists for one query: which firm gets a disciplined trader into a funded $50k futures account fastest and cheapest. We are not a prop firm and we sell nothing ourselves.
Naming note: Prop50k is a futures-trading comparison site and has no connection to California's ballot measure "Proposition 50".
How the ranking works
Firms are ranked by all-in cost to funded: the evaluation price at the current promo plus the activation fee, with deferred fees counted. If two all-in costs are equal, minimum qualifying days decide, then the drawdown model (static first, then end-of-day, then end-of-day trailing, then intraday trailing), then the profit split. Each firm is compared on one named plan, its mainstream $50k evaluation, and the plan's name is printed next to the firm; the same firm may sell other plans at other prices. Prices are re-checked on the firms' own sites every month, and the homepage shows the date of the last check. The homepage table exposes every input — sort it yourself.
Verification
Prices, promo codes and rules are re-checked on each firm's own site; the current verification date is displayed on the homepage. Between checks, the firm's site is authoritative.
