My Funded Futures gets you funded faster, with an estimated ~2 days to first payout (2d eval). Consistency rules also affect pacing: My Funded Futures caps your best day at 50% of total profit, while Trade Day caps at 30% — a looser rule means you may need fewer trading days in practice.
My Funded Futures offers up to 90% profit split(Daily payouts), while Trade Day offers up to 80%(On Demand payouts). The 10 percentage point difference in profit split can add up significantly over time — on a $10,000 profit, that's $1,000 more in your pocket.
