Paul from PropTradingVibes

The Trading Pit offers Futures Prime ($50K/$100K/$150K, €99-€289 fees, currently €0 activation) and CFD Prime ($5K-$200K across 6 tiers, 1-Phase or 2-Phase eval). 80% profit split flat across both. Full account-type breakdown in my TTP accounts guide, or read the complete review. Sign up at The Trading Pit (code JOIN30 = 30% off new clients).

The Trading Pit's 2026 account lineup is split into two distinct product families: Futures Prime for traders who want CME futures access through a single-phase 30-day evaluation, and CFD Prime for multi-asset traders who want forex, metals, energies, indices, crypto, and equities under one roof with a choice of 1-Phase or 2-Phase evaluation. Both share an 80% profit split, both use Euro-denominated fees against USD-denominated account sizes, and both feed into TTP's broader Earning Phase model. This pillar walks through every tier, the rule mechanics that govern each, and the cross-asset considerations a trader should understand before picking which product line (or both) fits their style.

The two-product-line structure: Prime is the 2026 lineup

As of 2026-05-09, The Trading Pit's public site organizes its evaluation challenges under the Prime brand. Futures Prime sits at thetradingpit.com/futures/ and CFD Prime sits at thetradingpit.com/cfds-prop-trading/. The older Classic program still surfaces in some TTP material as an alternative CFD evaluation route, but Prime is what the homepage and primary navigation push. Treating Classic as a legacy product family without making a hard "discontinued" claim is the safe research framing, because TTP hasn't published a discontinuation notice and traders may still be operating Classic accounts purchased before the Prime rollout.

The naming convention matters because older third-party reviews (and even some pages on PropTradingVibes from earlier in 2026) reference fee tiers in dollars. TTP's current site bills fees in euros. The account size remains in USD because the underlying market exposure for futures and CFDs is dollar-denominated, but the price you pay at checkout is EUR. This creates a small but real spread between the advertised fee and the dollar amount that hits a US-based credit card. Traders comparing TTP to a US-based futures prop like Apex or Topstep should mentally convert at the prevailing EUR/USD rate to get an apples-to-apples cost comparison.

The Prime branding also signals a strategic shift. TTP's group structure (covered in the trust pillar) is built around The Trading Pit Challenge GmbH as the operating entity, with The Trading Pit AG as the holding company and Pinorena Capital as the parent. That corporate scaffolding suggests a firm preparing for scale, and the Prime simplification of the account menu (down to two product lines from the more complex earlier Classic-and-multiple-tier system) fits that direction. For a trader, the practical takeaway is that the menu is cleaner now: pick Futures Prime or CFD Prime, pick a size, pick a phase structure (CFD only), and start the evaluation.

Futures Prime: three tiers, one phase, 30 days

Futures Prime is the simpler of the two product lines. Three account sizes, single-phase evaluation, 30-day window to hit the profit target. The mechanics are tuned for futures traders accustomed to ES, NQ, MES, MNQ, YM, MYM and the broader CME complex. TTP's verified-2026-05-09 platform list covers ATAS, Edge Clear, Quantower, Rithmic, Sierra Chart, NinjaTrader, and Tradovate, so most serious futures workflows are supported.

Account sizeChallenge feeActivation feeProfit targetDaily pauseMax drawdownPhase 1 contracts
$50,000 €99 €0 (waived from €129) $3,000 $1,000 $2,000 5 std / 50 micros
$100,000 €189 €0 (waived from €129) $6,000 $2,000 $3,000 10 std / 100 micros
$150,000 €289 €0 (waived from €129) $9,000 $3,000 $4,500 15 std / 150 micros

The structure is clean: profit target is exactly 6% of account size on every tier, max drawdown is 4% on the $50K and 3% on the $100K and $150K, and the daily pause is half the max drawdown. The contract limits scale 1:1 with account size, which means the largest account ($150K) gets the largest expression at 15 standard contracts or 150 micros during Phase 1.

The drawdown mechanic is the trailing-then-static variant. Per TTP's documentation: the maximum drawdown trails based on End-Of-Day balance until it reaches the starting balance, after which it remains fixed. In practice, this means a $50K account starts with a $48K floor (the $2K drawdown applied to the starting balance), and as the trader generates profit and the EOD balance rises, the floor trails up by the same amount. Once the floor catches up to the starting balance ($50K in this example), it stops trailing and locks at $50K. From that point on, the drawdown is static at the starting balance, which gives the trader breathing room as the account grows past the funded threshold.

The 30-day window is calendar days, not trading days. That matters because thin holiday weeks (Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Year) eat into the available trading days. A challenge purchased the second week of December will face Christmas, Boxing Day, and New Year's Day as non-trading sessions, which compresses the effective evaluation window. Traders timing their Futures Prime purchase should aim for a period with 20+ active trading sessions to give themselves room to recover from a slow start.

There's no explicit minimum trading day count on the current /futures/ page. Older third-party reviews reference a 3-day minimum, which is [NEEDS VERIFICATION] against TTP's current 2026 ruleset. The new payout requirement on the funded side is 5 profitable trading days with at least $200 daily profit before the first payout can be requested, which is a soft minimum-trading-day floor on the post-evaluation phase rather than the evaluation phase itself. Read the consistency rule pillar for how this interacts with daily profit distributions.

CFD Prime: six tiers, choice of evaluation, multi-asset breadth

CFD Prime is the broader product. Six account sizes scale from $5,000 up to $200,000, and the evaluation gives the trader a choice between a faster 1-Phase route or a more measured 2-Phase route. The product is built for traders who want exposure across forex, metals, energies, indices (cash and futures variants), 11 cryptocurrency assets, and equities across US, EU, and UK markets.

Account sizeChallenge feeProfit targetMax drawdownProfit split
$5,000 UNKNOWN (verify at checkout) per evaluation phase 7% trailing/static 80%
$10,000 UNKNOWN (verify at checkout) per evaluation phase 7% trailing/static 80%
$20,000 UNKNOWN (verify at checkout) per evaluation phase 7% trailing/static 80%
$50,000 UNKNOWN (verify at checkout) per evaluation phase 7% trailing/static 80%
$100,000 UNKNOWN (verify at checkout) per evaluation phase 7% trailing/static 80%
$200,000 UNKNOWN (verify at checkout) per evaluation phase 7% trailing/static 80%

The fee column reads UNKNOWN because TTP's public /cfds-prop-trading/ page (as of 2026-05-09) does not expose a tier-by-tier fee table the way the /futures/ page does. The pricing pillar covers the fee structure in more depth, including the JOIN30 and GROW20 promo codes that knock 30% off for new clients and 20% off for existing clients respectively. For now, treat the fee as variable per tier and check the live checkout flow for the size you're considering.

The drawdown structure on CFD Prime is fundamentally different from Futures Prime. CFD Prime uses a 4% daily drawdown calculated on equity or balance (depending on account configuration) and a 7% maximum drawdown trailing on highest equity. Some CFD Prime account types may use static-trailing variants where the drawdown locks once a threshold is hit. The exact mapping of static vs trailing per account size isn't fully spelled out on the public page, so verifying at checkout is the right move.

The leverage breakdown is the multi-asset signal that makes CFD Prime distinct:

  • Forex pairs: 1:50 leverage. Standard for European CFD-prop firms.
  • Metals (gold, silver, platinum, palladium): 1:10 leverage. Tighter than forex but still meaningful.
  • Energies (oil, natural gas): 1:10 leverage. Same tier as metals.
  • Indices (cash + futures): 1:15 leverage. Mid-tier, suitable for index swing traders.
  • Cryptocurrencies (11 assets): 1:2 leverage. Conservative, reflecting crypto volatility.
  • Equities (US, EU, UK markets): 1:2 leverage. Same conservative tier as crypto.

This leverage tiering is consistent with European regulatory norms and doesn't suggest TTP is trying to push aggressive leverage on retail-facing instruments. The 1:50 forex max is the headline number that competing firms like FTMO and FundedNext also use as their public ceiling.

The 1-Phase vs 2-Phase choice deserves its own paragraph. The 1-Phase route is a single profit target with a tighter daily/max drawdown profile, suitable for traders who want a single sprint to funded status. The 2-Phase route splits the evaluation into two sequential targets, typically with relaxed daily limits in Phase 2, suitable for traders who want a measured ramp and prefer a more conservative drawdown structure. Specific target percentages per phase aren't fully exposed on the public /cfds-prop-trading/ page, so [NEEDS VERIFICATION] applies to the exact percentages. The general European-prop standard is 8-10% for 1-Phase and 5-8% per phase for 2-Phase, but TTP's specific numbers should be verified at checkout.

Activation fees, resets, and the EUR-vs-USD pricing wrinkle

The activation fee structure is one of the most confusing aspects of TTP's pricing for traders coming from US-based futures props. On Futures Prime, the activation fee is documented as €129 base, currently waived to €0 as of 2026-05-09. Whether this waiver is a permanent change to the product or a temporary promotion is unclear from the public page. The conservative read is that traders should verify the activation line item at checkout before purchase, especially if reading this article more than a few months after publication. The activation fee on a US-based futures prop typically covers Rithmic data routing or platform license costs and is in the $130-$150 range, so TTP's €129 base would be in line with the market norm if it ever returns from the waived state.

Reset and refund details on TTP are partially documented and partially [NEEDS VERIFICATION]. The verified facts pulled on 2026-05-09 don't include explicit reset fee amounts or refund policy text. European-prop industry standard is roughly 50-60% of the original challenge fee for a reset, with refunds typically tied to the funded phase (refund of the original challenge fee on first payout). Whether TTP applies that pattern is something to check directly with TTP support before assuming. The pricing pillar drills into this in more detail.

The EUR-vs-USD wrinkle bears repeating because it trips up traders comparing TTP against US futures props. TTP's published fees are euros: €99 for the $50K Futures Prime, €189 for the $100K, €289 for the $150K. The account size denomination is USD because the underlying market exposure (CME futures contracts, USD-denominated CFD instruments) is dollar-based. At a typical EUR/USD rate of 1.08-1.10, the dollar-equivalent fees are roughly $107-$109 for $50K, $204-$208 for $100K, and $312-$318 for $150K. Add a 1-3% credit-card foreign-transaction fee for US cardholders and the effective dollar cost is another step higher. None of this makes TTP expensive (the fees are competitive with the European prop market), but it means a head-to-head fee comparison against Apex or Topstep needs the FX adjustment to be honest.

The 25% scaling mechanic on CFD Prime

The 25% account scaling mechanic is unique to CFD Prime per TTP's published rules. It works like this: every fourth withdrawal triggers a 25% increase in account size, but only after three concurrent gates have been passed:

  1. Account active for at least 2 months.
  2. At least 2 payouts received.
  3. At least 10% cumulative profit on the account since funding.

The earliest possible scaling event is therefore the fourth withdrawal that happens after those three gates have all been met. A trader who passes the evaluation and receives bi-weekly payouts hits the 2-payout gate roughly one month in, the 2-month gate at month two, and the 10% cumulative profit gate whenever their consistent profitability gets them there. So in the most aggressive realistic scenario, a trader could scale on the fifth or sixth payout (third or fourth month of trading). More typical traders take longer.

The arithmetic of compounding 25% scaling is what makes the mechanic meaningful. Starting at $50K:

  • After first scaling: $62,500
  • After second scaling: $78,125
  • After third scaling: $97,656
  • After fourth scaling: $122,070

So roughly two years of consistent profitable trading with bi-weekly payouts gets a $50K starting account to $122K, assuming the trader hits the every-fourth-withdrawal cadence. Whether there's an upper cap on scaling isn't documented on the public page, so [NEEDS VERIFICATION] applies to the question of whether scaling continues indefinitely or stops at some ceiling.

Futures Prime does not appear to have an equivalent scaling rule per the live /futures/ page. This is a notable structural difference between the two product lines: CFD Prime traders have a built-in growth path for capital base, Futures Prime traders do not (at least not in the public documentation). The scaling rules sub-article in this cluster goes deeper into the mechanics and the practical timeline.

Cross-asset considerations: running both Futures Prime and CFD Prime

A natural question for multi-asset traders is whether a single TTP user can run a Futures Prime account and a CFD Prime account simultaneously. TTP's public documentation does not explicitly address this, so the question is [NEEDS VERIFICATION] with TTP support. Some of the cross-asset considerations worth weighing before contacting support:

Platform separation. Futures Prime runs on ATAS, Quantower, Rithmic, Sierra Chart, NinjaTrader, Tradovate, etc. CFD Prime platforms aren't publicly listed as of 2026-05-09 (likely MetaTrader-family or proprietary, but [NEEDS VERIFICATION]). The platform separation reduces the risk of accidental cross-account hedging, since the trader has to actively log into two separate systems to place trades.

Risk-engine separation. Futures Prime uses USD-denominated drawdown thresholds in dollars ($2K/$3K/$4.5K). CFD Prime uses percentage drawdown thresholds (4% daily, 7% max) on USD-denominated account sizes. The risk engines on the two product lines are likely separate, so a breach on one wouldn't automatically breach the other. But explicit confirmation from TTP support is the right move before assuming.

Prohibited-strategies clauses. Most European prop firms have language against copy-trading or correlated risk between accounts. If a trader runs Futures Prime trading ES and CFD Prime trading SPX500 (the CFD index equivalent), the positions are economically equivalent and could trip prohibited-strategies clauses. The conservative read is to keep Futures Prime focused on US futures and CFD Prime focused on forex/metals/energies to minimize correlation risk.

Capital allocation. The math of running both is non-trivial. A $150K Futures Prime + $200K CFD Prime gives a combined $350K nominal account size, but the fees stack: roughly €289 for the Futures Prime + an unknown CFD Prime fee likely in the €400-€800 range. That's €700-€1,100 in upfront challenge fees before any trading, which is meaningful capital at risk if the trader fails one or both evaluations.

The pragmatic recommendation for traders considering both: start with one product line, pass the evaluation, generate 1-2 payouts, then evaluate adding the second line once cash flow from the first is established. This sequences risk down and avoids tying up €700+ in unproven challenges.

How TTP stacks against the European prop benchmark

For a quick directional benchmark, here's how TTP's account menu compares against FTMO, the dominant European multi-asset prop:

Account sizeTTP Futures PrimeTTP CFD PrimeFTMO (CFD/forex)Notes
$10,000 not offered available ~€89 FTMO smallest tier
$25,000 not offered not offered ~€155 FTMO mid-low
$50,000 €99 available ~€289 TTP Futures cheaper
$100,000 €189 available ~€540 TTP Futures notably cheaper
$150,000 €289 not offered not offered TTP unique tier
$200,000 not offered available ~€1,080 FTMO + TTP CFD top tier

The $50K and $100K rows are the most striking. TTP Futures Prime at €99 and €189 is meaningfully cheaper than FTMO's equivalent forex/CFD pricing at those account sizes. The reason isn't necessarily that TTP is undercutting on margin: it's that Futures Prime is a futures-only product with a single-phase 30-day evaluation, while FTMO's $50K and $100K are two-phase CFD evaluations with longer trading windows and broader instrument access. So the cheaper TTP Futures Prime fee buys a narrower, faster product. Apples-to-apples is TTP CFD Prime vs FTMO, where the published TTP CFD Prime fees aren't publicly tiered (UNKNOWN at this time) and the comparison can't be cleanly drawn from public data.

For deeper head-to-head analysis, see the dedicated comparisons: TTP vs FTMO, TTP vs FundedNext (closer multi-asset peer), and TTP vs The 5%ers (similar European multi-asset profile).

Drawdown mechanics: why the static-after-starting-balance lock matters

The trailing-then-static drawdown on Futures Prime is the single most important mechanic to internalize before purchasing the challenge. The trailing-then-static structure means the drawdown floor moves up with End-Of-Day balance until it catches up to the starting balance, then locks. This creates two distinct trading regimes: an "EOD-trailing" regime during the initial drawdown phase, and a "static-at-starting-balance" regime once the floor has caught up.

In the EOD-trailing regime (early in the challenge, before the floor reaches the starting balance), profitable EOD closes lift the drawdown floor. A trader who closes the day at +$1,500 on a $50K account moves the floor from $48,000 to $49,500. The next day's worst-case loss tolerance is now $1,500 less than it was the prior day, which compresses the trader's room to maneuver if they hit a losing day.

In the static-at-starting-balance regime (after the floor reaches $50K), the drawdown is fixed at the starting balance regardless of further profit. A trader who has run the account up to $55K still has a hard floor at $50K. Drawdowns of up to $5K are tolerable from current equity without breaching, but only because the trader has built up that buffer. If the account drops below $50K (the static floor), it's breached.

The practical implication: the early days of the challenge are riskier per dollar of profit because the EOD-trailing mechanic compresses the floor with every winning day. Once the trader has banked enough profit to lock the floor at the starting balance, the drawdown becomes more forgiving. This argues for a conservative early phase (avoid blowing up on day 1-3) and a slightly more flexible mid-phase (once the floor is locked).

The drawdown rules sub-article in this cluster covers this in more depth, including worked examples of EOD-trailing arithmetic across multiple daily P&L scenarios.

Profit splits, payout cadence, and the funded-phase economics

Both Futures Prime and CFD Prime pay 80% of net realized profit to the trader. Payout cadence differs:

Futures Prime payouts. First payout is capped at the lower of $5,000 or 50% of realized profit, and requires 5 profitable trading days with at least $200 daily profit before the request is allowed. After the second payout, subsequent payouts are every 7 days with a >$200 profit requirement and no consecutive-day requirement. So a trader who hits 5 profitable days at $200+ each can withdraw within roughly 1-2 weeks of starting the funded phase, then settles into a weekly cadence.

CFD Prime payouts. Bi-weekly cadence with a $100 minimum payout. Pre-March 5 2026 accounts had a first-payout requirement of 3 profitable trading days at 0.5% daily profit plus 5 minimum trading days. The post-March-2026 first-payout requirements may differ; treat as [NEEDS VERIFICATION] with TTP support if you're a new CFD Prime user.

The economics work out roughly as follows for a Futures Prime $100K trader who generates a steady $1,500/week net profit during the funded phase:

  • Weekly net profit: $1,500
  • Trader take (80%): $1,200/week
  • Monthly take: roughly $4,800
  • Annualized take (assuming consistent performance, no breaches, no scaling): roughly $57,600

For a CFD Prime $100K trader with a 25% scaling event every roughly 6-8 months (assuming the gates are hit cleanly), the same $1,500/week base profit grows over time as the account scales. After two scaling events (18-24 months in), the account is $156K and the equivalent percentage profit generates more dollar profit per week.

These numbers are illustrative, not predictive. Most traders don't generate steady $1,500/week net profit, and the funded-phase failure rate at any prop firm is non-trivial. The point is that the 80% split combined with the scaling mechanic creates a structural compounding path on CFD Prime that Futures Prime lacks.

Which product line fits which trader

The two product lines fit different trader profiles:

Futures Prime fits the trader who: Already trades CME futures (ES, NQ, MES, MNQ, YM, MYM), uses ATAS or NinjaTrader or Sierra Chart or Quantower as their primary platform, prefers a single-phase 30-day sprint over a multi-phase evaluation, and wants the trailing-then-static drawdown mechanic over a percentage-based drawdown.

CFD Prime fits the trader who: Trades multi-asset (forex + metals + energies + indices + crypto + equities), comes from a MetaTrader-family or cTrader background, wants the choice between 1-Phase and 2-Phase evaluation, and values the 25% scaling mechanic for long-term capital growth.

A small but real third profile is the trader who runs both: Futures Prime for futures specialization plus CFD Prime for non-futures asset diversification. This is a more advanced setup and requires confirming with TTP support that simultaneous accounts across product lines are allowed (and that prohibited-strategies clauses don't penalize correlated cross-account exposure). Most traders should pick one product line, pass the evaluation, generate consistent payouts, then evaluate the second line as a deliberate expansion rather than a parallel launch.

The bottom line

The Trading Pit's 2026 account menu is cleaner than older Classic-era pricing. Two product lines (Futures Prime and CFD Prime), nine total tiers, an 80% profit split, a single-phase 30-day Futures Prime evaluation, a 1-Phase or 2-Phase choice on CFD Prime, and a 25% scaling mechanic that gives CFD Prime traders a structural growth path. The fees are euros not dollars, which trips up traders coming from US-based futures props but is the European norm.

The activation-fee waiver (€0 on €129 base, as of 2026-05-09) makes the entry cost cheaper than the documented headline price. Whether the waiver is permanent or temporary isn't disclosed publicly, so verify at checkout. Reset and refund mechanics aren't fully exposed in TTP's public documentation, so contact support for specifics before purchase if those policies are decision-relevant for you.

The product line choice comes down to asset preference. Futures-only traders pick Futures Prime, multi-asset traders pick CFD Prime. The 25% scaling mechanic on CFD Prime is the strongest structural argument for that line over time; the cleaner single-phase 30-day evaluation is the strongest structural argument for Futures Prime. Traders who want both can run both, but the published rules don't explicitly guarantee simultaneous-account allowance, so confirming with TTP support is the safe move.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many account sizes does The Trading Pit offer in 2026?

Nine total across two product lines. Futures Prime offers 3 sizes ($50K, $100K, $150K) at €99/€189/€289 fees. CFD Prime offers 6 sizes ($5K, $10K, $20K, $50K, $100K, $200K) with fees that scale with account size. The legacy Classic program is still referenced in some TTP material as an alternative CFD evaluation route, though Prime is the active 2026 product family.

Are The Trading Pit fees in dollars or euros?

Euros. Older third-party reviews list fees as $99/$189/$289, but TTP's /futures/ page (verified 2026-05-09) shows the fees in euros. The account size itself is denominated in USD ($50K, $100K, $150K), but the challenge fee, activation fee, and any reset fees are billed in EUR. This matters at checkout because the EUR/USD spread can shift the effective dollar cost by a few percent.

Is the €129 activation fee real or waived?

Per TTP's published rules (verified 2026-05-09), the activation fee is €129 base but currently waived to €0 across all three Futures Prime tiers. Whether this is a permanent change or a temporary promotion is unclear from the public page. Verify the activation line item at checkout before purchase, especially if you're reading this article more than a few months after publication.

Can I run a Futures Prime and a CFD Prime account at the same time?

TTP's documentation does not explicitly address simultaneous Futures Prime + CFD Prime accounts, so this should be treated as [NEEDS VERIFICATION] with TTP support. Many European multi-asset props allow cross-asset accounts because the platforms and risk engines are separate. The conservative read is to ask support before purchasing both, since copy-trading or correlated risk between the two could violate prohibited-strategies clauses.

What's the profit split on The Trading Pit accounts?

80% trader / 20% firm across both Futures Prime and CFD Prime, applied to net realized profit during the Earning Phase. This is at the higher end of the European prop market in 2026, matching FundedNext's 80% standard and beating FTMO's pre-scaled 80%. There's no public information about a tier-up to 90% within TTP's structure, so 80% is the published ceiling unless announced otherwise.

How does the 25% scaling mechanic actually work?

CFD Prime accounts scale 25% on every fourth withdrawal, but only after the trader has met three concurrent thresholds: at least 2 months active, at least 2 payouts received, and at least 10% cumulative profit on the account. So the earliest scaling can occur is after the fourth withdrawal that follows those gates. A $50K starting account that hits scaling four times reaches roughly $122K. Futures Prime does not appear to have an equivalent scaling rule per the live page.

What are the contract limits during Phase 1 of Futures Prime?

Phase 1 contract limits scale linearly with account size: 5 standard / 50 micros on $50K, 10 standard / 100 micros on $100K, and 15 standard / 150 micros on $150K. These are evaluation-phase caps. Funded-phase limits aren't explicitly stated on the public /futures/ page, so assume similar discipline applies until TTP confirms otherwise. Contract sizing for ES vs MES counts toward the standard bucket vs micros bucket respectively.

What's the drawdown structure on Futures Prime?

Maximum drawdown trails based on End-Of-Day balance until it reaches the starting balance, after which it remains fixed. This is the trailing-then-static variant common in European futures props. Drawdown amounts: $2,000 on $50K, $3,000 on $100K, $4,500 on $150K. Daily pause (intraday equity stop) is half the max drawdown: $1K / $2K / $3K respectively. Hit the daily pause and the account locks for the rest of the trading day.

What's the drawdown structure on CFD Prime?

CFD Prime uses a different drawdown model: 4% daily (calculated on equity or balance, depending on account configuration) and 7% maximum drawdown trailing on highest equity, with some accounts using static-trailing variants. The exact static vs trailing distinction per CFD Prime account size isn't fully spelled out on the public page, so verify at checkout. Hit either the 4% daily or 7% max threshold and the account is breached.

How long does the Futures Prime challenge run?

30 days. Single-phase challenge. Hit the profit target ($3K/$6K/$9K depending on account size) without breaching daily or max drawdown within 30 calendar days, and you advance to the funded Earning Phase. There's no explicit minimum trading day count on the /futures/ page (older third-party reviews mention 3 days, which is [NEEDS VERIFICATION] against the current 2026 ruleset).

Is there a 1-phase or 2-phase choice on CFD Prime?

Yes. CFD Prime evaluation lets the trader choose between a 1-Phase route (faster, single profit target) or a 2-Phase route (slower, two sequential targets, typically with relaxed daily limits). The trade-off is speed vs flexibility: 1-Phase suits aggressive traders who want a single sprint, 2-Phase suits more conservative traders who want a measured ramp. Specific target percentages per phase aren't fully exposed on the public page.

What CFD instruments are available?

CFD Prime offers 50+ forex pairs (majors, minors, exotics), metals (gold, silver, platinum, palladium), energies (oil, natural gas), indices (cash + futures variants), 11 cryptocurrency assets, and equities across US, EU, and UK markets. Leverage is asset-class specific: forex 1:50, metals/energies 1:10, indices 1:15, crypto and equities 1:2. This is broad multi-asset coverage relative to US-focused futures-only props.

What platforms does The Trading Pit support?

Futures Prime supports ATAS, Edge Clear, Quantower, Rithmic, Sierra Chart, NinjaTrader, and Tradovate (verified 2026-05-09). CFD Prime platforms are not explicitly listed on the public /cfds-prop-trading/ page, so this is [NEEDS VERIFICATION] with TTP support. The European CFD-prop standard is MetaTrader-family (MT4/MT5) or cTrader, but TTP hasn't confirmed publicly. See the platforms pillar for deeper coverage.

How does TTP compare to FTMO on account sizing and fees?

FTMO covers $10K-$200K across both forex/CFD and futures product lines. TTP Futures Prime tops out at $150K (so smaller upper bound than FTMO's $200K equivalent), but TTP CFD Prime reaches $200K matching FTMO. Fee comparison: TTP $50K Futures Prime is €99 (around $108), FTMO $10K is roughly €89, scaling up to $200K at €1,080. So TTP's small-account entry is cheaper per-dollar of buying power than FTMO.
