Take Profit Trader vs TradeDay
Our call: Take Profit Trader (9.0 vs 7.0). Day-one uncapped withdrawals and a genuine live 90/10 tier (PRO+) — but the row-by-row below shows where TradeDay 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.
Full review →TradeDay in one paragraph
A credible payout-reliability anchor: true day-one payouts with $250 minimum and no cap, $0 activation, no daily loss limit, no funded consistency rule, a documented transition to live capital, and a founder who publishes pass rates (36% Jan-Jun 2026). The 50/50 split on the first $4,000 of Quick Pay profits is the toll booth, and Quick Pay funded accounts run intraday trailing even if you paid for the EOD eval.
