⭐ 1 STAR – I STRONGLY DO NOT RECOMMEND ELITE TRADER FUNDING
I have spent thousands of dollars over time purchasing evaluations, resets, subscriptions and other services from Elite Trader Funding, and my most recent experience has caused me to lose confidence in this company.
Here are the facts, based on ETF's own written responses to me:
On August 9, 2026, Elite Trader Funding charged me $39.40 for my monthly renewal and generated evaluation account EVALONESTEPETF1419220040.
The account was activated and ETF allowed me to trade it normally.
On August 12, I canceled the subscription connected to my previous evaluation.
ETF nevertheless allowed account 0040 to remain active for the entire paid period.
I continued trading the account legitimately and was making progress toward the profit target.
On September 9, ETF canceled account 0040.
Most importantly, ETF has CONFIRMED TO ME IN WRITING that the cancellation was NOT the result of any trading-rule violation.
Their exact explanation is that the account was canceled because the subscription had previously been canceled and therefore did not renew for another billing period.
I asked ETF to restore the account with the trading progress I had legitimately accumulated.
They refused.
I asked for a resolution.
They refused.
Instead, after canceling my account, they repeatedly offered me promotional discounts to BUY ANOTHER evaluation.
In their latest response, they offered me a promotion of up to 90% off to purchase another account.
That is not an acceptable resolution to me.
I paid for the account, ETF activated it, ETF allowed me to trade it, I violated no trading rules, and I spent substantial time working toward the required target.
I believe potential customers deserve to know exactly how my situation was handled before deciding whether to spend their own money with this company.
I have preserved ETF's emails confirming all of the above, including their written statement that the account was not canceled because of a trading violation.
I strongly do not recommend Elite Trader Funding based on my personal experience.
I am also pursuing appropriate consumer complaint and payment-dispute options regarding my experience.

I have for about 5 years now traded with almost every mainstream Prop firm out there. Because, I have exp with almost all, I'm qualified to say this is the worst off all. I would never recommend to any of my friends or family. Here's why.
The rules are not clear enough for a reasonable trader. Ex. Their. EOD account. Fail you if you hit the DLL (most traders understand the DLL as a soft breach lock-out until next day...Not with ETF...Your accoutn will fail if you hit the DLL)
No payout security. If you invest your time. And trade well for a period of time to build profit in your funded account.
Payout scheduled is not consistent. Ex. Is it 5 days, 8 days of 10days ETF what is it?
20 max account, this is a marketing ploy, gimmick, deceptive scam... Although you can trade multiple accounts. They will not pay your payout from 20 accounts. If it comes to that point. They will deny your payout and force you live.
There is no payout security... Unlike most prop firms. If you invest time, and are successful at making profits. You are typically going to get your payout, once you are within the rules and profit target. However with ETF, should you make profit and request a payout. They can deny your payout and push you live..
The live program is an unserious joke. First, In order get to live they must deny your prior payout. 2nd they close all of your accounts. 3rd. If you had 20k in profits in your funded accounts. It will not matter to the fact of how much money you will receive to go live with.
For example, I had 15k in profits and I received a $1700 live account that trails EOD....4th thing they took so long to deny my payout and take me live that I was still purchasing and pay activation fee on new accounts.(All of which were for waste because when you go live you lose all your investments). 5th the communications and support for the live accounts are lacking immensely. My live account from email about live to being able to trade the live account was almost 2 weeks wait.. Similarly, most of the time I had the live account. I wasn't able to actually trade. I had on 6 separate occasions emailed support about my inability to trade. Furthermore, you won't get a proper data dashboard to figure out your drawdown. And support won't help you with this. My live account was eventually closed. Not because I blew it up but because of a risk management audit or something. I had a -$600 lost day.. Imagine that I went from 15k in profits. To having my live account closed for losing $600 in a day...
PLEASE STAY AWAY, THE PRICES ARE LOW FOR A REASON..

The approval process is good and fast. The KYC could be easier as the website times out too fast...

One thing I really like about Elite is that their agents are quick and responsive. Their accounts are fairly priced as well and the Beat the Beast challenges are fun (although a little triggering for gambler types).
One big disadvantage is that they allow a limited selection of trade copiers, which unfortunately doesn't include my favorite, EchoTrader. Because of this I can only trade one ETF account at a time instead of having multiple accounts like I'd like. If I could use my copier, I'd definitely be more of a fan.
EDIT: I appreciate the response from ETF about the copiers. I had already made this request through that email but received a boilerplate response. I will try again! :)
