I’ve had an excellent experience with DayTraders

The structure is simple and transparent, allowing traders to focus purely on performance. Risk management rules are clear and fair.

My payout was approved within one day and the support and service are top-notch fast, professional and trader-oriented.

In an industry where trust matters, DayTraders stands out.

Day traders are a modern prop firm with simplified trading rules

What an amazong firm the care and consideration the cistern service gave me was unparalleled to anyone else I have to say they dod go above and beyond to address my concerns and needs and for this reason alone I will be forever a client here for my futures journey! They discord is so helpful and im just so very thankful for this firm the fact that they offer static drawdown for a futures account should tell anyone that knows trading just how kuch they care for our journey by offering a statoc drawdown accoubt very few do and when u see that the company offers it then u can feel confident in knowing they care about ur ling term here and the fact that there is only a one time payment unlike 99.9 others out there chatting u a lot they charge should also tell you alot! And the the fact that their straight to instant account has an end of day trailing drawdown should also show u just how kuch they want u to succeed here!! They truly care about each of our journeys here!

DAYTRADERS IS MY LIFE LONG FUTURES PARTNER FOR MY JOURNEY!! THANK TOU DAYTRADERS FOR ALL OF THIS!!

So far so good

It's a great company with good prices, especially for beginners in the futures market. Highly recommend!!

I would give -100 stars if I could. Randomly changed rules from minimum activity every 30 days to weekly + profit target. Because my schedule does not allow me to meet this, they cancelled my funded account. I do not mind losing my account for trading reasons, but this is disgusting. I have written to the SEC about this.
In my experience, when prop firms change rules like this, it is sign that they are in trouble and a 'rug pull' is coming. Buy their products at your own risk - you are sure to lose your money. This company deserves to go bankrupt.

This is a scam company. Do not buy anything!
On January the 8th 2026 they decided to change the rules on existing pro accounts and enforce a minimum of four qualifying trading days within a 30-day cycle to keep the account alive. A qualifying trading day means a day where you are able to gain 5.7% on your original available risk capital. Think about that: four times within 30 days a single day with that profit. This can only be achieved by high risk high leverage gambling, not with sound risk management and position sizing appropriate to the small risk margin on the accounts.
They tell you this on the 8th of January and tell you they will enforce it by the end of January. So effectively 15 trading days beforehand. Then they close your account end of January and write an email telling you that trading is not gambling!
They come up with that rule change in the middle of the start of earnings season, a FED day and a high volatility market.
Accumulating these kinds of days over time to qualify for a payout would be fine. But enforcing them on a weekly basis no matter the market conditions is just dishonest.
Stay away. They used to be good last year. But they keep changing everything behind the scenes and try to rip you off. First there was Motive Wave included. It was silently dropped. Then they changed their privacy statement without telling you and require you to give your biometric data to another dishonest company (search for: lawsuit veriff facial scans)
Now this.
Probably they are going to disappear like so many of these "prop firms" before.

Was very happy with them but right after I joined them they instituted a rule that effectively took away traders accounts for something no other firm does. Thought it was overly harsh as many people lost their accounts. However, today DT announced a new program which will alleviate that issue and I am very happy with the again.

Reliable and reasonable price, fast response

I like easy access to connect.
I don't like the fact you close my account without notice

Copy trading and bracket orders...enough said.

Hi recommend, great price for what you get. Great support as well.

Awesome response, criteria,easy rules.... 🔥🔥🔥

The Day to Trade is here.

Normal rules. Fast Payouts. Helpful support. Everything, what a good propfirm has to offer.

Terrible prop firm. They changed their rules so that you have to meet arbitrary profit goals every 30 days that are not aligned with good risk management, so if the market is slow or your strategy has a break even month, they delete your accounts without warning.

Absolute scam, I spent 1k on straight to funded accounts and then they change the terms immediately after I purchased the accounts. I would not recommend this prop firm to anyone, they will steal your money.

Overall good prop firm

ProjextX user on DayTraders (yes, they partnered last year with Topstep and leased ProjectX). I had almost no execution issues, even during outage times for Topstep (my mates reported they had major outages at certain times last year). This is why I can't give DT the lowest grade here, as I want to be fair about my experience.
I went with DayTraders because they marketed their accounts as "Pay once, hold account forever". I knew I wouldn't be able to trade it as frequent as my live account and therefor this model looked perfect to me.

Some months later I guess they decided that this is not making them enough revenue and so they added a new rule. In order to keep your account, you now must trade at least four "qualifying days". A qD is a market open day in which you must gain at least 8% of your trailing drawdown. They decided to call it an "activity rule". Mind you, if you lose 8% instead of gain, that doesn't count as activity they want. Also, if on that given day you go over 20% consistency, that doesn't qualify either as a "qD". This could be a hurdle a prop trader would be given in order to receive a payout, or maybe become funded, but they decided to make it a way to disqualify their customers "forever accounts", making them actively DayGamblers, because we now have to make at least 32% of entire max allowed drawdown in 4 days.

Now, to add insult to injury, DayTraders also decided to impose this rule during the time period when most people are on their winter break vacation. As well as they made it a retroactive rule. Meaning, if you didn't gain 32% of you max DD over the span of four days, from Dec 31st to January 31st, your evaluation, but also fully funded account is GONE, closed out without a warning.

They claim they had communicated this absurd rule via email to their traders, but they did not fully clarify that the rule takes into effect from December 31st on! Their mods on discord also told people to "relax and keep trading as they have until Jan 31st" I have proof of all of this saved.

Come January 31st, many people woke up to their painstakingly traded accounts closed out. Some, their single accounts, others multiple, 4, even 15...
Requests for leniency denied. Mind boggling decisions on part of this firm right before they are about to lose access to Topsteps ProjectX, which makes me worried they might be in financial trouble that could tank all of their traders accounts at once.

In the end, I would love to change this impression and review for better in case DayTraders makes it right with the affected account holders, course corrects and etc.
The idea of "forever accounts" is a great one...Make it more expensive if you really need to, but don't switch it up like this into something totally counter intuitive and counter trader, pro gambler.

Update after DT response:
I have already contacted your support and the answer was a resounding no.
No, you don't want to give me back my accounts or a refund after you failed to give proper warning and explanation for the abrupt switchup of your entire model.
No, you don't want to acknowledge that you are now effectively forcing people who are traders into gambling their "trading accounts" away.

In a remote chance one of those no's turns into a yes some day and you course correct, please tap me with a response here, so that I can re-evaluate my grade and opinion of your firm.

God bless
