Best MyFundedFX Alternatives With a Long Track Record
MyFundedFX no longer sells prop trading accounts, so anyone who traded there is choosing a firm again, and the real question is which one is least likely to close next. No record can promise that. This page ranks firms on the one sign of staying power that every record holds in the same form, the year the firm was founded, and then on our editorial score.

Among firms founded at least 6 years ago, three score highest: Topstep (89/100, founded 2012), The5ers (88, founded 2016) and FTMO (73, founded 2015). Topstep sells futures accounts, The5ers forex and CFD accounts and FTMO forex and CFD ones. A long history lowers the odds of a sudden closure without removing them, so each card sets out the costs and rules you would face. Facts current to October 17, 2026.
The rule here is about the firm, not one account, so each row reads all of a qualifying firm's programmes. The cards under the table cover what a row leaves out: what the cheapest way in costs, how much room for loss it gives you, and when the firm pays.
1st MyFundedFX alternative
Is Topstep the closest match for a MyFundedFX futures trader?
For futures, it is the first one to look at: founded in 2012, Topstep has 14 years behind it and scores 20 of 20 for payouts. Its Trading Combine (Standard) is billed $49 a month for a $50,000 account, so a slow pass costs more than a quick one. One step stands between you and funding: a 6% target, $3,000, over at least 2 trading days. The room for error is a maximum loss of $2,000 that follows your best end-of-day balance, and no single day may supply more than 55% of the evaluation profit, a rule that falls away once you are funded. Funded, the split is a flat 90%, payouts come on request, and the firm states up to 3 business days to process one. The weak spot is its rules, 14 of 25, and trading runs on TopstepX, with positions closed before the weekend.
2nd MyFundedFX alternative
What does The5ers ask of a forex trader starting over?
Two evaluation steps and no consistency rule, and its rules earn 23 of 25 in our score, the strongest part of The5ers's 88. Founded in 2016, it has been in business for 10 years. The cheapest way in is High Stakes (New) at $19 for a $2,500 account, paid once, with sizes up to $100,000. The targets are 10% and then 5%, $250 and $125 at that size, over at least 3 trading days. The maximum loss is static at 10%, so the floor stays $250 below the start, and one day may lose 5%, $125. A small first account keeps the price of a failed attempt low while you learn its rules. Funded, the split runs from 80% to 100%, the first payout comes after 14 days, and part of the fee comes back. It runs on MetaTrader 5, cTrader, and TradingView, and positions may stay open over the weekend.
3rd MyFundedFX alternative
What do you trade off for FTMO's 11 years?
Mainly price. FTMO has sold evaluations since 2015 and scores 10 of 10 for jurisdiction, but only 3 of 15 on price. The card reads its lowest-priced programme, FTMO Challenge: 1-Step: €79 for a $10,000 account, paid once, with no refund. A single 10% target, $1,000, is the whole test. The limits leave less room than the size suggests: a maximum loss of 10%, $1,000, that trails the best closing balance, and a daily limit of 3%, or $300. A best-day share of 50% applies before and after funding, so one big day cannot carry the account. Funded traders get a flat 90% of the profit, paid every 14 days, on MetaTrader 4, MetaTrader 5, cTrader, and TradingView. If you want that record with a two-step evaluation instead, our FTMO alternatives guide compares the firms that copy those rules for less.
How we picked these firms
The test is a single date. Each firm's record, compiled from its own pages and from company registries, notes the year it was founded, and a firm qualifies when that year is 2020 or earlier, 6 or more calendar years before today. A firm whose record lacks the year cannot qualify yet, and 8 approved firms are in that position. Of our 38 approved firms, 6 pass. The three highest editorial scores among them take the cards, in the same order our firm directory uses, and each card covers the firm's lowest-priced programme. MyFundedFX has no record with us, so nothing here is measured against its old terms, and no firm can pay to move up.
Does a long track record mean a prop firm will not shut down?
Not on its own. A founding date is a floor, not a promise: it shows a firm has lasted, not that it will. Of the 38 firms we approve, 23 were founded less than 6 years ago and 8 have no founding year recorded, so the rule leaves most of the market out, E8 Markets among them, even though its editorial score is 94/100. A young firm can be well run, and an older one can change hands, as MyFundedFX did before it closed. So read age beside the parts of the editorial score that look at the business behind the accounts: payouts, jurisdiction and reputation, each shown in the cards below with its points. Those parts move when a firm's terms or standing change, so check them again before every purchase, not only the first.
Can anything from a MyFundedFX account move to a new firm?
Almost nothing. A pass, a funded account or a payout history belongs to the firm that issued it, and firms do not, as a rule, accept another firm's results, so expect to start a new evaluation from the first step. What you can carry over is the way you trade, which makes the rules the first thing to compare. On the maximum loss, 2 of the 6 qualifying firms sell a programme where the limit stays fixed at the starting balance, while 6 move it up behind the account's highest closing balance on at least one programme, which leaves less room after every good day. If your strategy held positions over the weekend, check that next: only one qualifying firm records weekend holding as allowed. A rule you would break in your first week costs more than any difference in fees.

Frequently asked
Is MyFundedFX still operating?
No. MyFundedFX stopped selling prop trading accounts in February 2026, according to PropFirmMap, after it was acquired by Seacrest Markets. When we checked on 6 November 2026, myfundedfx.com redirected to seacrestmarkets.io, which shows a notice that Seacrest Markets is no longer operating and asks customers to contact its support team by email. We found no sign of a restart. A site that sells accounts under the MyFundedFX name now deserves caution until you can see which company stands behind it.
Can I get my MyFundedFX fees or payouts back?
Fees, probably not. A challenge fee pays for an evaluation on a simulated account rather than sitting with the firm as a deposit, and prop firm terms usually make it non-refundable. A payout you had already requested is different: it is a claim on the company that owed it, so keep your emails, account screenshots and payment records, and use the support address on the Seacrest Markets notice. FundedFast is not a party to those claims and cannot act for you. If you paid by card, your card issuer can tell you whether a chargeback is still possible.
Why is E8 Markets not on this list?
Because it was founded in 2021, 5 years ago, short of this page's 6-year floor. E8 Markets ranks 1st in our directory at 94/100, so if a high score matters more to you than a long history, our best prop firm guide ranks every approved firm by score alone. This page answers a narrower question, which well-scored firms have stayed in business longest, and a firm that crosses the floor next year joins the list without anyone choosing it.
Which firms meet the 6-year rule?
6 approved firms do: Earn2Trade, FTMO, The5ers, Topstep, TradeDay, and Tradeify. The table ranks all of them, and the cards cover the three highest scores. 4 are filed as futures firms and 2 as forex firms, so our futures guide and our forex guide are the places to widen the search by market. 8 more firms may qualify once their founding years are on the record: Bulenox, Crypto Fund Trader, Funding Predicts, GOAT Funded Predictions, Kraken Prop, Maven Trading, MyFundedFutures (MFFU), and Refract Funding.
What should I check before paying a new prop firm after a shutdown?
Whatever would fail first if a firm got into trouble. Payouts come top: how soon you may ask for the first one, how often after that, and how many days the firm says processing takes. Then the company itself, meaning who runs it and where it is registered, which our reviews score as jurisdiction. Then regulators: we track their warning lists on every firm profile, and none we track names any of the three picks. FundedFast is not a regulator and gives no advice; the score is our reading of each firm's published terms and records, and our methodology lists every part.
What should I do if another prop firm I use closes?
Stop buying new evaluations there, save your account records, and use only the contact details on the firm's own site or its official notice, because closures attract copycat sites and recovery offers that ask for money up front. A pending payout is a claim on that company; a fee rarely comes back. Then compare replacements on their rules before their prices: our firm directory lists every approved firm with its score, and our country pages show which firms list your country.
