We scored one product from each of 18 prop firms (12 forex/CFD, 6 futures) on 16 rules that can end a funded account or cut a payout, and on where each rule is written: on a public rules page (1 point), only in the terms (2), only after you pay (3), or not addressed (0.5). Lowest wins. E8 Markets E8 Pro has the fewest at 11.5 (11 active rules, all on help pages, $228, $57.00 per $1,000 of loss room), then The5ers High Stakes NEW at 12.5, and Topstep’s Express Funded Account leads futures at 13.0 ($47.50 for one $95 month).
