Take Profit Trader vs Earn2Trade
Our call: Take Profit Trader (9.0 vs 6.0). Day-one uncapped withdrawals and a genuine live 90/10 tier (PRO+) — but the row-by-row below shows where Earn2Trade still wins.

Take Profit Trader in one paragraph
Still top-3: day-one uncapped withdrawals, no daily loss limit, EOD drawdown in the eval, and a real live-capital path at 90/10 via PRO+. making the 40% discount lifetime and waiving the $130 activation is quietly the best recurring deal of the 16. Watch the trap: PRO (sim-funded) switches to intraday trailing drawdown, the most common reason passers fail in week one.

The trustworthy tortoise: ~10 years operating, honest published pass rates (8.89% in 2025), EOD drawdown in eval, weekly payouts from $100 with no funded consistency rule, and a genuine path to real live capital. The 50% split on the first ~$2K of profits, hard daily loss limit, and slower scaling make it a diversifier or safe anchor, not a primary.
