A verification-first snapshot of what is supported, what remains unclear, and what to check before paying.

Reviewed October 11, 2026

Elite Trader Funding DealWatch: As of October 11, 2026, Elite Trader Funding (ETF) is running a sale with two official codes. 20BACK takes 85% off the 1-Step, Static, End of Day and Diamond Hands evaluations, so a 50K 1-Step drops from $207 to $31.05. DTF75 takes 75% off the 50K and 100K Direct to Funded accounts. Both end on Monday, October 12, 2026 at 8:59 AM Eastern. Fast Track and the 10K Mini Inferno are not discounted. ETF's own blog also lists a standing code, GOFUTURES (80% off the first month of any evaluation except Direct to Funded, no end date), but its example prices are out of date and BestProps could not confirm it against the current checkout data. Every figure here was read from ETF's website, help centre, official social posts and the pricing data its plan picker loads, on October 11, 2026. BestProps did not complete a purchase.

These four plans bill every 30 days. The data does not say whether the second month is also discounted; plan on the list price for renewals. Not verified by purchase.

Best Current Read

  • Code right now: 20BACK, 85% off every 1-Step, Static, End of Day and Diamond Hands size, published in the pricing data behind ETF's evaluations page on October 11, 2026. It ends on October 12, 2026 at 8:59 AM Eastern.
  • Skipping the evaluation: DTF75 takes 75% off the 50K and 100K Direct to Funded accounts in the same window: $186.75 and $249.25.
  • After the sale: ETF's own blog names GOFUTURES (80% off the first month, all evaluations except Direct to Funded, no end date). Its stated prices are old, so treat it as a code to test in checkout, not a confirmed price.
  • Cheapest entry: the 10K Static evaluation at $22.05 with 20BACK. Without a sale the cheapest is the $57 Fast Track 10K EOD, which no code currently covers.
  • Main catches: the four discounted plans are 30-day subscriptions that keep billing until you cancel or activate a funded account; passing costs an activation fee ($87 a month or $177 to $307 once, depending on plan and size); all sales are final apart from a 7-day first-purchase guarantee.
  • Pattern: this is ETF's second store-wide sale in three weeks. Its checkout data showed SEPT90 (90% off the same four plans) from September 21 to 25, 2026.

Source check: Codes, discounts and windows were read on October 11, 2026 from the product data that ETF's evaluations page loads for its plan picker (elitetraderfunding.com/api/checkout-products), the same figures the checkout uses. ETF's checkout link redirects to the plan picker until you sign in, so BestProps did not see a final order total. Discounted prices on this page are the list price minus the published percentage. BestProps did not create an account, enter payment details or complete a purchase.

Elite Trader Funding Prices With 20BACK, DTF75 and GOFUTURES

List prices for every plan and size in ETF's pricing data on October 11, 2026, in US dollars, with the price after each code. "Monthly" plans renew every 30 days from the purchase date. The GOFUTURES column applies the 80% from ETF's blog post to the current list price; it is a calculation, not a checkout result.

* ETF's blog says GOFUTURES covers Fast Track; the current checkout data shows no discount on Fast Track during the 20BACK sale. Reset column: evaluation reset fee for evaluations, funded reset price for Direct to Funded. Fast Track funded accounts are not eligible for the one-time activation fee. Direct to Funded has no activation fee. Accounts that use a Rithmic data feed pay an extra $45 a month per account; the Tradovate bundle has no extra data fee.

Figures are from ETF's pricing data and plan pages on October 11, 2026. 1-Step trails your highest open profit, End of Day trails only at the session close, Static never moves, and Diamond Hands and Direct to Funded accounts may hold positions overnight and over the weekend; the others must be flat one minute before the close. ETF's homepage comparison table gives Diamond Hands 10 minimum days while its pricing data and help article say 5. See the 1-Step, Static, End of Day, Diamond Hands, Fast Track and Direct to Funded pages for the full rules.

Worked Examples: What Getting Funded Really Costs

These use ETF's list prices and published fees on October 11, 2026. They assume the account renews at list price if it runs into a second month, because ETF does not say the sale price carries over.

ScenarioCalculationTotal
50K 1-Step with 20BACK, pass in month one, one-time activation$31.05 + $177$208.05
Same, but pass in month two$31.05 + $207 renewal + $177$415.05
50K 1-Step with 20BACK, activate with 3D for the first month$31.05 + $47 (then $87/mo or the one-time fee)$78.05
50K 1-Step with 20BACK, fail, reset once, pass$31.05 + $47 reset + $177$255.05
50K 1-Step with 20BACK, fail, buy a second one instead of resetting$31.05 x 2 + $177$239.10
50K End of Day with 20BACK, pass in month one$52.05 + $177$229.05
10K Static with 20BACK, pass in month one$22.05 + $177$199.05
10K Fast Track EOD (no code), pass, keep funded two months$57 + free first month + $87$144
50K Direct to Funded with DTF75$747 x 25%, no activation fee$186.75
50K 1-Step with GOFUTURES after the sale (if accepted)$207 x 20% + $177$218.40

Three things stand out. First, during the sale the activation fee, not the evaluation, is most of the cost: a 50K 1-Step costs $31.05 to start and $177 to activate once. Second, a second discounted evaluation ($31.05) costs less than the $47 reset, so during the sale a fresh account is the cheaper restart (ETF allows one login per person, not one evaluation). Third, the 50K Direct to Funded at $186.75 costs less than a discounted 50K 1-Step plus its one-time activation ($208.05), with no evaluation to pass; the trade-off is that Direct to Funded needs 15 Active Trade Days and a $600 minimum per qualifying day before its first payout cycle, against 8 days and $250 on evaluation-based funded accounts.

When you pass and activate, ETF adds what you paid for the first month of the evaluation to the funded account's starting balance (the credit bonus, for activations since June 23, 2025). With 20BACK that is $31.05 on a 50K 1-Step instead of $207 at list price, so a deeper discount means a smaller credit. The credit does not count toward profit or Active Trade Days. Direct to Funded accounts do not get it.

Which Discounted Account Gives the Most Room per Dollar

The maximum drawdown is the loss you are allowed before the account fails. Dividing the sale price by that amount shows what you pay for each $1,000 of room in the first month. Lower is better.

Plan and sizePrice nowMax drawdownCost per $1,000 of drawdown
1-Step 150K$52.05$5,000 live trailing$10.41
1-Step 100K$38.55$3,000 live trailing$12.85
1-Step 50K$31.05$2,000 live trailing$15.53
Diamond Hands 100K$59.55$3,500 end of day$17.01
End of Day 100K$73.05$3,500 end of day$20.87
End of Day 50K$52.05$2,000 end of day$26.02
Static 50K$74.55$2,000 static$37.27
Direct to Funded 50K$186.75$5,000 end of day$37.35
Static 25K$41.55$1,000 static$41.55
Static 10K$22.05$500 static$44.10
Direct to Funded 100K$249.25$5,000 static$49.85
Fast Track 10K EOD$57$500 end of day$114
Fast Track 10K Static$77$500 static$154
Direct to Funded 10K Mini Inferno$357$1,500 end of day$238

During the sale the 1-Step accounts give the most room per dollar, but their drawdown trails open profit, which is the hardest type to manage. The 10K Static is the cheapest way in and its floor never moves. Fast Track sits at the bottom of the table because it is not discounted. Direct to Funded is priced per funded account rather than per evaluation month, so compare it on the total cost to get funded above, not on this table alone.

Elite Trader Funding Reset Promo Codes and Reset Costs

ETF does not publish a standing reset code. What it does publish:

  • Evaluation reset: $47 flat for every plan and size if you want to restart at once. While the subscription is active, a failed evaluation resets free when the next monthly payment goes through, around the original purchase date. Fast Track cannot be reset. Reward points can pay for a reset (help article).
  • Funded (Elite Sim-Funded) reset: a reset skips the evaluation and puts you back on a funded account, up to 10 times per account. ETF's price list runs from $117 (10K Static) to $557 (150K End of Day). A limited-time discounted price is offered once per eligible account after a failure, with a countdown that starts at the end-of-day report (help article).
  • Past reset codes: ETF's Facebook page announced a "Flash Reset – Only $40" with code R051425 on May 14, 2025, ending May 16 at 12:00 PM Eastern (post). That code is history, not a working offer.
Funded accountFunded reset price
1-Step 50K / 100K / 150K / 250K$147 / $187 / $257 / $437
Static 10K / 25K / 50K$117 / $217 / $407
End of Day 50K / 100K / 150K$317 / $437 / $557
Diamond Hands 100K$357
Fast Track 10K (EOD or Static)$87
Direct to Funded 10K / 50K / 100K$200 / $297 / $447

Funded reset prices from ETF's help centre on October 11, 2026. Accounts from evaluations bought before September 17, 2025 cannot be reset. Resets are final and not refundable.

Activation Fee Discounts

Passing an ETF evaluation does not make the account free to trade. You pay to activate the Elite Sim-Funded account, and no sale code has covered that fee in the data BestProps read. Your options, from ETF's activation fee article:

  • Monthly: $87 a month on every plan.
  • One-time: $177 for 1-Step, End of Day and Static accounts of 75K and below; $247 for 1-Step 100K to 150K; $257 for End of Day 100K to 150K; $307 for Diamond Hands; $277 for 250K 1-Step accounts still in use.
  • 3D add-on: the first month for $47, or pay two months and get three. Bought at checkout with the evaluation or at activation.
  • Fast Track: no one-time option; the first funded month is free, then $87 a month.
  • Direct to Funded: no activation fee at all.

Even a free account won in a community event needs the activation fee, ETF says.

How to Apply an Elite Trader Funding Discount Code

  1. Go to ETF’s evaluations page and pick the plan and account size.
  2. Choose the platform bundle. The Tradovate bundle (Tradovate, TradingView and NinjaTrader) has no extra data fee; Rithmic adds $45 a month.
  3. Decide on add-ons (One Day to Pass, TradeShield, PriceSlash, 3D) before paying: some cannot be added later.
  4. Enter the code in the promo field at checkout. During the sale use 20BACK for evaluations or DTF75 for 50K and 100K Direct to Funded.
  5. Check that the discount line and the reduced first payment appear, and note the renewal date (30 days from purchase, not from your first trade).
  6. Sign in or create your single ETF account and pay.

Elite Trader Funding Code Not Working? Common Reasons

  • The sale ended. 20BACK and DTF75 stop at 8:59 AM Eastern on October 12, 2026. ETF's sales end at that time of day, so a code can expire before you start trading that Monday.
  • Wrong product. 20BACK does not cover Fast Track or Direct to Funded; DTF75 does not cover the 10K Mini Inferno.
  • Second code. One code per purchase.
  • Old seasonal code. ELITEMAS, SANTA80, 4YRSTRONG, SEPT90 and R051425 were real ETF codes but ran for a few days each.
  • Coupon-site code. Many listed ETF codes were never published by ETF or have expired.
  • Typo or space. Codes are capitals and numbers with no spaces.
