Tradeify and Legends Trading Group in brief
Tradeify
Growth and Select evaluations, plus Lightning instant funding. The drawdown trails at end of day and is enforced in real time. Growth has a soft daily loss limit; Select has a 40% consistency rule in the evaluation.
Legends Trading Group
Apprentice and Elite trail at end of day; Straight-to-Master is described as "trailing" without a stated model. No daily loss limit. Consistency rules of 30% (Apprentice), 40% (Elite) and 30% (Straight-to-Master) raise the target but never fail the account.
How these rules play out
On Tradeify and Legends Trading Group the drawdown trails at end of day: the floor is recalculated once, from the closing balance, so open profit given back during the session does not raise it — but equity touching the floor during the session still counts. For example, at Tradeify and Legends Trading Group a $50,000 account starts with its floor at $48,000, $2,000 under the start.
A soft daily loss limit pauses the day instead of failing the account: reach it and open positions are flattened, trading stops until the next session, and the account stays open. Tradeify's Growth Evaluation plan sets it at $1,250 on $50,000. Tradeify's Select Evaluation plan and Legends Trading Group have no daily loss limit, so a losing day is bounded only by the max drawdown.
Tradeify starts the trading day at 6:00 PM ET (5:00 PM CT); a daily loss limit counts from that reset, not from midnight.
A consistency rule caps how much of the total profit one day may carry. Tradeify's Select Evaluation plan caps any single day at 40% of total profit, so it takes at least 3 profitable days to finish inside the rule. One day may then carry at most $1,200 of a $3,000 target. Tradeify's Lightning plan caps any single day at 20% of total profit, so it takes at least 5 profitable days to finish inside the rule. Legends Trading Group's Apprentice and Straight-to-Master plans cap any single day at 30% of total profit, so it takes at least 4 profitable days to finish inside the rule. One day may then carry at most $900 of a $3,000 target. Tradeify's Growth Evaluation plan applies no consistency rule in the evaluation, so one large day can count in full.
Tradeify requires at least 1 trading day on Growth Evaluation and 3 on Select Evaluation before a pass; Legends Trading Group requires at least 4 trading days on Apprentice and 10 on Straight-to-Master before a pass; Tradeify's Lightning plan sets no minimum number of days.
On automated trading — a strategy or bot sending the orders — at Tradeify it is allowed in the evaluation and on a funded account; Legends Trading Group has no written answer on record. Written answers: Tradeify (read ).
Choosing between Tradeify and Legends Trading Group
Tradeify and Legends Trading Group differ on 3 of the evaluation rules compared here: daily loss limit, consistency rule and minimum trading days.

If you keep trading after a losing morning, look at what the daily loss limit does: Tradeify pauses the day at its daily loss limit on some plans and has no limit on others; Legends Trading Group has no daily loss limit. To finish in as few sessions as possible, compare the minimum days: Tradeify sets no minimum on some plans and up to 3 trading days on others, Legends Trading Group needs 4 to 10 trading days, depending on the plan.

Tradeify sells 3 plans: Growth Evaluation, Select Evaluation and Lightning; Legends Trading Group sells 3 plans: Apprentice, Elite and Straight-to-Master. Each plan carries its own version of the rules above, which is why they are listed plan by plan. If a strategy or bot will send your orders, Tradeify's written answer is allowed in the evaluation and on a funded account, and Legends Trading Group has no written answer on record.
