Fintokei8.2/10 · Forex
A relaxed, beginner-friendly sim funder with static drawdowns and unusually lenient strategy rules — just respect the midnight-UTC equity reset and the quietly-applied consistency regime.
Best for: Beginner-to-intermediate traders (especially in Asia) who want static drawdowns, lenient strategy rules and a simple program ladder — and who set risk conservatively to stay clear of the consistency regime.

The gold standard. Operating since 2015 with $500M+ paid out, famously lenient on news, weekend holding and EAs. The 1-Step's trailing max-loss and Best-Day rule are the only real traps.
Best for: Serious traders who want the most proven payout record and the freedom to trade news and hold over weekends.
