Head to head
City Traders Imperium and Funded Trading Pluscompared on the things that actually decide a challenge — profit split, drawdown type, the consistency rule, news and weekend trading — straight from each firm's decoded rulebook. Funded Trading Plus edges ahead on FundedWiki's overall rating (8.3/10 vs 8.4/10), but the right pick depends on how you trade.
Genuinely swing-friendly — balance-based drawdown, no daily cap on the 1-Step, and a path to 100% + salary — but mind the 60-second stop-loss rule and the much higher first-payout bar.
Best for: Swing and position traders who hold through news and weekends and want a balance-based drawdown with no daily cap — and who are disciplined about always setting a stop-loss.
Start a City Traders Imperium challengeGenuinely flexible — no time limits, no minimum days, EAs and news allowed, and a path to a lifetime 100% split — but watch the Symbol Loss Limit and the same-market-two-accounts profit-nullification rule.
Best for: Discretionary and EA traders who want maximum flexibility (no time/day minimums) and a fast route to a 100% split — and who avoid running the same symbol across accounts.
