What stands out

Instant Funding Pro trails on open profit. On the 50K: $3,000 of drawdown that follows your highest equity, a 3% daily limit from the day's start that ends the account, at least five trading days, and a best day of 20% of profit or less for a payout.

Instant Funding Standard trails at the end of the day instead, with a $2,500 drawdown and a 15% best-day rule.

The Two Step accounts differ in drawdown type. Two Step Standard and Elite are static ($4,000 and $6,000 on the 50K); Two Step Pro trails intraday on open profit.

News is restricted on the forex accounts, and three trading days are needed before most funded payouts.

Aqua's futures accounts trail at the end of the day, close by 4:10 PM Eastern and close after 7 idle days.
