|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Futures 150K benchmark | Futures | $150K | 30-day challenge | $9,000 target | Daily $3,000 daily pause / Max $4,500 EOD trailing max drawdown | EUR289 one-time fee; EUR129 activation fee shown as EUR0 promo snapshot | 80% Challenge-specific payout rules after funded stage |

The Trading Pit fees and payout dossier
This section is deliberately conservative. Fee, reset, refund, payout, and KYC claims can change at checkout, so the live firm page remains the final source before paying.

The Trading Pit rules, payouts, and checkout checklist
Competitor pages often bury these details in long reviews. TSB keeps the checklist explicit so a trader can see which operational details change the decision before paying.
- Confirm the current challenge price, reset fee, and refund terms on the official checkout page.
- Check daily loss, maximum loss, trailing drawdown, consistency, news, weekend, and prohibited-strategy rules.
- Check payout timing, minimum trading days, KYC requirements, payout methods, and profit split by account type.
- Check platform availability, market access, commissions, spreads, data fees, and any regional restrictions.
- Run the account size through the TSB prop firm calculator before choosing the largest allocation.
Rules to understand before choosing The Trading Pit
These decision guides connect The Trading Pit back to the wider prop-firm ecosystem, so a trader can compare the rule itself instead of reading this profile in isolation.
Trailing drawdown can move with open or closed equity depending on the firm. The useful question is not whether a firm says "trailing", but when the threshold moves, when it stops, and how it affects payout eligibility.
Open guideDaily loss is the short-term guardrail. Maximum loss is the account survival line. A challenge can look cheap until those two limits interact with position size, commissions, spreads, and payout timing.
Open guideA high profit split is only useful if the trader can actually withdraw. TSB treats payout timing, caps, buffers, KYC, payment method, and consistency rules as part of the real price.
Open guideProfit split is the most marketable number on a prop firm offer, but it is not the full economics. A lower split with cleaner payout rules can be better than a headline 100% split with tight caps.
Open guideRefundable fee claims are attractive, but the refund trigger matters. Some refunds depend on passing, receiving a payout, maintaining account status, or following exact checkout terms.

Why it can fit
Traders who want one brand covering both CFD-style and futures-style evaluations.
Why it can fail
Futures and CFD products should be evaluated independently because platform, fees, and drawdown logic differ.
Before paying
Strong multi-asset comparison target; keep rows product-specific. Use the prop firm calculator before checkout.

- Any discount should be treated as secondary to rule fit and payout terms.
