Now tracking Elite Trader Funding

Elite Trader Funding is the 23rd firm on the comparison, and it clears our transparency bar with room to spare. Its evaluation cards publish every number we ask of a firm: the 1-Step 50K is $207/month, the reset is a stated $47, and activation on passing is either a one-time $177 or $47 up-front plus $87/month — all printed on the pricing page, nothing behind a checkout.

Two things stand out. First, the funding path is unusually concrete: pass the evaluation, trade an “Elite Sim-Funded” account until payouts total $25,000, and the firm then moves you to a live broker account funded with its own capital at an uncapped 80% split. Second, the firm publishes a monthly “ELITE Tape” recap of its traders’ aggregate profit and loss — including losing months — which is a kind of candour we rarely see in this industry.

Worth knowing before you buy: the 1-Step drawdown is a live trailing model (it follows open profit — the least forgiving of the three styles), evaluations auto-renew monthly until you pass, sim-funded payouts are capped per request ($1,750 on the 50K), and bots or algorithmic tools need the firm’s written authorization. A $57 one-time Fast Track 10K exists if you want the cheapest door in. As always, verify the live terms on the firm’s own site before buying.
