Customer Reviews (8567)

  • Laverna Rolfson
    2 years ago

    Support staff exhibits an extremely rude demeanor, and the payout policy leaves much to be desired.

  • Madeline Wintheiser
    2 years ago

    The team at Apex has been diligently addressing the recent issues and working to restore accounts. Their commitment and unwavering dedication to resolving these problems are truly commendable. I was particularly impressed by how tirelessly they’ve been working to get the system back on track so that everyone can resume trading smoothly.

    A special thanks goes to Dex and the other team members who have been so helpful throughout this process.

    A heartfelt thank you and well done to all involved!

  • Jailyn Franecki
    2 years ago

    I’ve had a fantastic experience with ATF so far. As someone new to trading, I truly feel lucky to be part of this organization. The programs and guidance they offer are really helping me learn the right way to trade successfully. A big thank you to ATF for all the support!

  • Emanuel Wiza
    2 years ago

    Apex stands out as a reliable trading firm, and their customer service is commendable. I’m looking forward to the possibility of having a phone assistant in the near future.

    In the second part of my review, I have to say, the guy in the videos gives off a vibe like an older brother who genuinely cares. Thanks for that!

  • Chad Ondricka
    2 years ago

    I want to take a moment to express my gratitude to the Apex team, particularly Taylor, for their prompt assistance in addressing my account issue with Rithmic. I’ve experienced working with various proprietary trading firms, but I can confidently say that Apex stands out as the best among them.

  • Orie Lemke
    2 years ago

    The offers are solid, the discounts are appealing, and the rules are fair.

  • Chandler Marks
    2 years ago

    Apex is truly a remarkable trading firm. I haven’t encountered any issues during my time with them. Their response time to inquiries is quite reasonable, which is always a plus. The rules are straightforward, making it easier for traders to navigate. Plus, they offer some fantastic deals. For anyone considering joining Apex, I highly recommend giving them a shot. They recognize that their platform may not be ideal for everyone. What’s the worst that could happen? You might find it’s not the right fit and spend a little money in the process. That’s perfectly okay; just move on and find a firm that aligns better with your needs. Overall, I think Apex is an excellent option, and I encourage you to explore what they have to offer. Just a word of caution: if you’re struggling financially, trading might not be the best path for you at the moment. Make sure to prioritize your responsibilities first—trading with Apex should be seen as a luxury, meaning it’s money you can afford to invest.

  • Lupe Kuvalis
    2 years ago

    This firm offers payouts that exceed those of any other competitors in the industry, cumulatively speaking. It’s quite impressive. Just stick to the guidelines they provide, and you’re certain to reap the rewards.

  • Norbert Orn
    2 years ago

    This trading firm is impressive! With a strong focus on providing resources and support, they really stand out in the proprietary trading space. The community is welcoming, and traders of all experience levels can find value here. Their training programs are quite comprehensive, catering to various trading styles. Overall, it’s definitely worth considering if you’re looking to enhance your trading experience.

  • Willis Baumbach
    2 years ago

    Trading with Apex provides a secure environment. I find that I learn more quickly, and my ambitions have expanded significantly thanks to the support I receive from the firm.

  • Darryl Toy
    2 years ago

    I’ve already received three payouts from Apex, and I can confidently say that they are completely legitimate! Being part of the Apex family makes me really happy!

  • Jade Gaylord
    2 years ago

    They consistently pay on time and offer competitive prices along with clear rules. This has been satisfying enough for me to choose to stay with them instead of exploring other firms at the moment.

  • Josiane Denesik
    2 years ago

    I’m giving just one star for my experience with Apex. I had a total of 11 PA accounts that were wiped out due to a confirmed Rithmic outage. Strangely, only one of those accounts was considered eligible for restoration, even though they all executed the same trades during the outage and suffered the same losses. It seems reasonable to expect that all 11 accounts should have been restored, not just one. I believe Apex is a good company overall, and I plan to continue using their services, but I do feel that a thorough review of this situation is warranted.

  • Aurelie Robel
    2 years ago

    The payouts are quick, and the communication is excellent. It’s essential to join their Discord for all the latest announcements.

  • Ellen Baumbach
    2 years ago

    My recent encounter with the untrustworthy support team at Apex has left me thoroughly convinced: they make trades without your consent, seemingly aimed at draining your accounts. Once upon a time, Apex was an exceptional futures prop firm, known for its integrity. However, after four years of partnership, I’ve decided to part ways.

    Exercise caution; their claims are misleading.

  • Maxwell Cremin
    2 years ago

    I was a bit uncertain in the beginning. The setup felt very DIY, and the support is mostly through email. However, they addressed every glitch I encountered and even reset my account when needed. I’m thrilled to say that I just passed my evaluation!

  • Deontae Becker
    2 years ago

    In recent weeks, users have encountered multiple issues with Apex’s servers. Apex often attributes these problems to their server provider, Rithmic. However, what’s puzzling is that other online proprietary trading firms utilizing Rithmic’s simulated data, such as Topstep, Bulenox, and Blusky, have not reported similar difficulties. Frequently, the company resets accounts in response to server issues, but only after a significant number of complaints emerge. If not enough customers speak up, they seem to neglect feedback, with customer service insisting that traders bear responsibility, even when clear evidence is presented.

    Despite several so-called fixes, problems remain persistent. For instance, on June 14, 2024, trade execution was still notably sluggish, making it impossible at times to cancel or flatten orders. This led to substantial losses and, ultimately, the forfeiture of accounts. Unfortunately, since only a handful of customers raised complaints until the Discord channel was once more silenced and most dissenters were banned, no acknowledgment of these persistent issues has been forthcoming.

    Apex’s characterization of their clients as “contractors” is rather misleading, as the reality is that Apex profits from the financial setbacks of these so-called contractors. They establish the rules and handle payouts from their own funds, positioning themselves as the house. Profits typically don’t stem from market activity but may occur later on, once a trader achieves certain payout thresholds that Apex uses as a basis for copy trading successful traders. This setup suggests their priority lies not in the success of their contractors, but in encouraging them to purchase multiple accounts and fail repeatedly. The frequent promotions and discounts they offer foster a gambling mentality. If this approach continues, it’s likely that Apex will attract the scrutiny of regulatory bodies, much like online casinos have.

  • Lew Russel

    Apex Trader Funding certainly stands out as one of the premier options in the market today. I genuinely think it’s among the best of the best.

  • Anastasia Bernhard
    2 years ago

    This platform is truly impressive! Unlike some of the negativity you might see on YouTube, I believe the existing rules set a solid groundwork for anyone aiming to become a successful trader over time. It really seems designed to support long-term profitability!

  • Keely Wyman
    2 years ago

    Apex Trading Funding truly stands out as an exceptional platform, unlike anything I’ve encountered before. It offers a remarkable opportunity to achieve your trading goals. The funding options are impressive, allowing you to access higher-tier accounts where substantial earnings are within reach. I’m incredibly grateful to Apex for their support that has helped me get to this point. Recently, I successfully passed my $100,000 account challenge. While it can be challenging, I believe that nothing is impossible. With determination and focus, you can achieve anything you set your mind to. Stay strong, keep your eye on your goals, and you’ll undoubtedly arrive at the destination you envision for yourself. Thank you!

  • Lavina Lueilwitz
    2 years ago

    I had an amazing experience with this trading firm. The support was top-notch, always there when I needed assistance. Their platform is user-friendly, making it easy to navigate through trades. The educational resources they offer are incredibly helpful, providing valuable insights into the trading world. Overall, I’d say this firm stands out as one of the best options for traders looking to grow their skills and profits.

  • Vivian Ebert
    2 years ago

    I recently went through a 250k evaluation with Apex and successfully passed the challenge, which led to receiving my proprietary account. I started trading and it all seemed good for the first nine days. However, on the 10th day, things took a turn. The company began experiencing significant issues with both Rithmic and Tradovate. That day, I faced a major problem with Tradovate, involving ghost orders and delayed trades that ultimately impacted my account. I had built up a positive balance of around $20,000, but unfortunately, I saw it all wiped out and my account closed by Apex on that very day. To make matters worse, the support team was unresponsive to my support tickets. Additionally, the moderators on Discord weren’t very helpful; they even disabled the chat while everyone tried to communicate the issues they were facing.

  • Cydney Erdman
    2 years ago

    I have confidence in Apex. Over the past year of my experience with them, whenever problems arose, Apex has promptly addressed and resolved any issues.

  • Jovanny Dibbert
    2 years ago

    Overall, my experience has been positive up to this point, and I genuinely hope it continues in this direction.

  • Laurence Abbott
    2 years ago

    I had an incredible experience getting funded with this proprietary trading firm. From start to finish, the process was smooth and straightforward. It’s truly rewarding to see your hard work pay off, and they really make it easy to achieve that funding. Overall, I couldn’t be more pleased with how everything turned out.

  • Bonnie Hilpert
    2 years ago

    The customer service experience at Apex was quite disappointing. I attempted to reach out multiple times but never actually connected with a live representative. Each time, I was directed to create a support ticket. So, on Thursday morning, 6/13, I submitted a ticket to address the problem I was facing with adding or scaling contracts to my position. Unfortunately, I received no response via email. This led me to share my experience in a review here. It wasn’t until after 4 PM on Friday that I finally got a message from Apex, stating, “There was a risk management system error on the platform’s part; this has been resolved.” I couldn’t help but wonder if this was a widespread issue or if it only affected my account. If it was indeed a system-wide problem, they should have notified all customers or at least posted an announcement on their website to inform everyone of the issue.

  • Evalyn Boehm
    2 years ago

    Apex is a genuinely fair trading firm that delivers excellent value. I really hope they keep collaborating with traders. If you possess a solid edge and avoid gambling, the earning potential is definitely there. I appreciate the opportunity they’ve provided.

  • Gayle Greenfelder
    2 years ago

    The quick confirmation of payouts by the firm is undoubtedly one of the most satisfying and reassuring experiences for clients. It’s truly a major plus that adds to the overall comfort of working with them.

  • Marguerite Fisher

    This company is fantastic! I really appreciate the results they deliver.

  • Urban Hoppe
    2 years ago

    I’ve invested a considerable amount of time and money into Apex. Recently, I got my first payout, and it arrived in just four business days. So far, everything appears to be in order, and I’m quite pleased with their services. Thanks, Apex!

  • Leanna White
    2 years ago

    I experienced some funding challenges with Apex, but they addressed the issue after I posted a negative review. I’m updating my feedback now since they resolved the problem. However, I must say that the customer service is still lacking. On a positive note, I did manage to receive a $2,000 payout last month.

  • Bethel Maggio
    2 years ago

    I had an excellent experience with APEX today. I accidentally deleted a PA account, and I was worried about it. However, their support team responded quickly to my request and had the account re-enabled in just 30 minutes.

    Kudos to Ralph for the great help!

  • Jessyca Hill
    2 years ago

    I experienced prompt payouts and received excellent support throughout my trading journey. The speed at which my withdrawals were processed was impressive, and the assistance offered by the team was truly top-notch. They were always available to answer my questions and provided valuable guidance, making my overall experience quite positive.

  • Kelley Kemmer

    This firm offers excellent opportunities for trading funding and can be quite profitable, especially if you’re a successful day trader. If you know your stuff, you’ll likely find ways to make money here.

  • Elisa Ledner
    2 years ago

    I recently opened a PA account with a capital of $250,000, and I’m really looking forward to achieving success. A special thanks to the team at Apex, especially Darrel and John, for their invaluable assistance throughout this process. They made the evaluation experience nothing short of excellent.

  • Liliana Marvin

    Apex consistently impresses. When you trade with them, you feel like a professional, and they treat you that way, too. I’m truly grateful for the support I’ve received from Apex. Thank you for everything!

  • Evan Gleichner
    2 years ago

    My experience with ATF over the last year and a half has been quite positive. Whenever issues have popped up, they’ve always been quick to address them and make things right. Communication with their team has also been smooth, and I appreciate their commitment to customer service. Overall, I feel supported in my trading endeavors with them.

  • Shanna Corkery
    2 years ago

    The trading firm offers a solid experience, but I really hope to see more promotions in the future. Overall, I’m enjoying my time, though additional incentives would certainly enhance my engagement.

  • Ottis Mraz
    2 years ago

    I had a tough week due to some Rithmic issues, but when they finally addressed my situation and processed the resets, I felt fully compensated. It was definitely frustrating at times, but I have to give them credit for always striving to rectify things. Don’t pay attention to the complainers on here who moan about drawdowns and feeling cheated. From my experience, Apex may not be flawless, but they do their best to keep their customers satisfied, particularly those of us who are still learning and have invested thousands into our education 🙂 A big thanks to Apex and Lotto!

  • Terrell Will
    2 years ago

    Apex stands out as an excellent trading company to collaborate with! The experience has been nothing short of fantastic. There’s a real sense of community among traders, and the support provided by the team is remarkable. They foster an environment that encourages growth and shared knowledge. I genuinely enjoy working here!

  • Maggie Kreiger
    2 years ago

    The services provided here are impressively professional and highly efficient. I truly appreciate all the effort put in. Thank you!

  • Hugh O'Conner
    2 years ago

    I’m Valentina, and I want to share my experience with APEX. After investing over €3,000 in their evaluation programs to test my trading systems, I was asked to verify my identity. I completed the verification process, but it was rejected. I offered to undergo the verification again, yet it was declined once more without any explanation. For an entire week, I’ve been locked out of my account and unable to stop the monthly renewals. On top of that, I can’t sign off on the evaluations I successfully passed.

    In contrast, my experience with FTMO was like night and day. APEX lacks professionalism; it’s unacceptable to treat customers so poorly. Tomorrow, I plan to report this issue to the police and will work to block any unauthorized charges with my bank. If they don’t want me as a customer, they need to refund my money immediately. Now they are demanding videos of my trades and various other requirements, seemingly just to stall me and make it harder to stop the automatic renewals. Be cautious—APEX can be quite risky, and their customer service takes over 24 hours to respond with generic emails. It has truly been a distressing experience.

    In reply to their claims, I’ve already contacted the authorities. We’ll see who adheres to the law and who doesn’t! You have deceived me and unjustly restricted my account access while clearly still wanting to keep my money. Thieves!

  • Greta Hackett

  • Adrien Raynor

    It took around nine months before I was informed that the paperwork I submitted was deemed incorrect. After that, I had to wait an additional three months, only to be told that there was an issue with my name matching. The problem stemmed from the hyphen separating my two last names.
