Official list prices checked 2026-11-03, sale codes excluded. Cheapest ranks by upfront price plus any stated fee after passing; monthly plans count one month. Best overall weighs price, rules (drawdown type, consistency rule) and trust score equally. How we rank
How we rank
Where do the prices come from?
Every price is the firm's own undiscounted list price, read from its official pricing page or help centre on the date shown. Coupon and sale prices are excluded. Firms whose pricing we could not read are left out rather than estimated.
How is the cheapest list ranked?
By upfront price plus any fee the firm says is due after passing (activation or pay-after-pass fee). Monthly plans count one month, so a slow pass will cost more than shown.
How is best overall calculated?
Three equal parts: price relative to other firms at the same size, rules (static drawdown scores highest, intraday trailing lowest; no consistency rule scores higher) and our trust score. It is a starting point, not a recommendation for every trading style.
