  • Lou Simonis

    The support I received was fantastic, making it really easy to get help whenever I needed it. Accessing their resources was a breeze, which I appreciated. Overall, my experience has been quite positive, thanks to the approachable assistance they offer.

  • Richie Funk
    1 year ago

    This is undoubtedly the top proprietary trading firm, and their support is exceptional. My payout request was handled effortlessly, which has significantly boosted my trust in the company. After this experience, I feel confident that I’ll continue trading with them in the future. Additionally, I had a fantastic interaction with their customer service team; they addressed all my questions thoroughly.

  • Korbin Corkery
    1 year ago

    The service I received was quite impressive. Mike F and Nancy were exceptionally helpful throughout the process. Their support made a significant difference in my experience.

  • Magnolia Bins
    1 year ago

    I just completed my first evaluation account with Apex, and I have to say, they are exceptional! I signed up during a promotional 7-day trading rule to pass, but they were running a special one-day promo. Remarkably, they honored that, and I was able to pass in just 4 days. The whole process was incredibly straightforward, and I really appreciate the affordable monthly payments for the Expert Advisors, as well as the option for a one-time lifetime payment for the Proprietary Accounts. Everything has been going wonderfully so far!

  • Rosina Kessler
    1 year ago

    I encountered some technical issues while trying to log into my account via TradingView. I reached out to tech support and thankfully got in touch with a representative named Lotto. He was incredibly helpful throughout the entire process—always polite and quick to respond to my emails. He resolved my issue efficiently. Apex truly has a gem of an employee in Lotto.

  • Lue Kerluke
    1 year ago

    Money in the bank! I just want to give a big shoutout to ATF; the $57,000 hit my account today! Can’t believe it!

    I’ve already put in another payout request for $59,000!

    If you stick to the rules, you’re gonna get paid!

  • Mellie Welch
    1 year ago

    The entire journey from evaluation to getting funded and ultimately receiving payment was remarkably smooth. The firm has well-defined rules that are easy to follow. Additionally, I found their customer service to be quick and genuinely supportive, which made my experience even better.

  • Conrad Hill
    1 year ago

    I haven’t withdrawn any money yet, but based on my experience thus far, I believe there’s no proprietary trading firm that matches or exceeds what Apex offers. From everything I’ve seen, it has been the best option for me.

  • Lesly Schaden
    1 year ago

    I needed a quick response regarding my $300,000 PA account, and I was fortunate to be connected with Mike F. He provided clear and concise guidance on what steps I needed to take. Additionally, he directed me to a helpful video link that clarified everything further. Thank you, Mike!

  • Lurline Feeney

    This firm is indeed a legitimate player in the trading landscape. They clearly articulate their objectives, making it easy for traders to understand what they aim to achieve. Transparency seems to be one of their strong suits, which is a big plus in this industry. Moreover, their framework for success is well-defined, offering traders a solid path to follow. Overall, if you’re looking for a place that values clarity and integrity, this could be a promising option to consider.

  • Ricky Rutherford
    1 year ago

    ATF sets forth their rules and requirements with impressive clarity. Their customer service stands out for its responsiveness, making it easy to get assistance when needed. The firm emphasizes a commitment to building long-term relationships with professional traders, and they genuinely appear to uphold this promise. Although I haven’t yet reached that level of professionalism, it’s clear that ATF isn’t merely in it for a quick profit from fees.

  • Earlene Reilly
    1 year ago

    The team consistently replies without delay, and their politeness stands out as a notable aspect of their service.

  • Breana Jenkins
    1 year ago

    The payout process can definitely be a bit of a grind at times. I requested mine on July 15, and it was approved by the 29th. They sent it out on the 31st, but I didn’t actually see the funds hit my account until August 6.

    That said, at least I got paid in the end!

  • Kiel Schroeder
    1 year ago

    Apex Funding stands out as a premier player in the futures prop trading space. After six months of trading with them, I’ve successfully passed 20 accounts, each valued at $50,000. Recently, I received my first payout, which was a rewarding milestone. For those considering a prop firm, it’s essential to conduct your own research, but I can confidently say that Apex is, without a doubt, a trustworthy and efficient option for investing in your trading journey. If you have any questions or concerns, don’t hesitate to leave a comment—I’m happy to help. Thanks, and may the markets be in your favor!

  • Rodrick Schinner
    1 year ago

    I had a really great experience with Mike F. He was super quick to assist me and clearly knew his stuff when it came to my questions about options. He provided thorough answers that really helped me out. Thanks once again, Mike F!

  • Tod Wilderman
    1 year ago

    I recently got funded with Apex, and my experience has been generally smooth up to this point. However, I have to say that the customer support leaves much to be desired. While they’ve always responded to my inquiries, their assistance often falls short—more often than not, they simply state they can’t help me with my issues.

    As for their website, it’s quite frustrating. Navigating it is a challenge; it’s incredibly difficult to locate what you need. It really feels like they’ve gone out of their way to make it hard to figure out how to raise a support ticket.

    The rules they have in place are fairly standard for the industry.

    Just a heads up: be sure to cancel your subscriptions. They have a tendency to keep billing indefinitely and don’t issue refunds, so you’ll want to keep an eye on that.

  • Colin Hammes
    1 year ago

    When you adhere to their guidelines, you could potentially receive a payout in as little as 10 days. It’s quite simple if you stick to the rules.

  • Vida Feeney
    1 year ago

    The support is truly outstanding! They respond quickly and are extremely helpful. The entire system operates swiftly and with great clarity. There’s a wealth of information—everything you need—is readily available on their website.

  • Camren Simonis
    1 year ago

    Apex is definitely impressive, and Drewizebanks approves! There are rules to adhere to, which is vital in a trading environment. It’s worth noting that they have specific payout guidelines that you’ll need to meet before the funds hit your account. However, the conditions set for traders are quite reasonable, and I can confirm that they do follow through on payouts. Overall, it’s a solid choice for those looking to trade responsibly.

  • Vinnie Blanda
    1 year ago

    All aspects of the service are thoroughly honored. Evaluations proceed as scheduled, and account funding is also timely. Payments are consistently on time, and the support team is quick to respond. In the rare event of any glitches, ATF takes the initiative to compensate for any lost time. So far, there’s nothing negative to report; ATF is truly one of the best in the industry! 👌

  • Felicia Dare
    1 year ago

    The customer service here is truly impressive; they respond in no time at all. It’s clear they prioritize helping their clients and that makes a huge difference in the overall experience.

  • Josefina Morissette
    1 year ago

    Up to this point, the firm has certainly met my expectations across the board. The evaluations are straightforward and user-friendly, and I can confirm that payouts are indeed delivered. While there are numerous regulations to follow, that’s just part of the process—if you adhere to them, it appears that the firm does the same in return.

  • Aditya Kovacek
    1 year ago

    I reached out with a well-crafted email, asking a reasonable question about an issue created by Apex themselves. I’ve noticed several others in the same predicament who are also being ignored. It’s now been over three weeks without a response. I’ve decided it’s time to halt any payments to this firm, and I strongly advise others to reconsider any dealings with them.

  • Rubye Fadel
    1 year ago

    The entire experience was quite seamless when it came to obtaining the required information and agreements for the funding process. After everything was finalized, the activation went off without a hitch, and within just a few minutes, I was all set to start trading.

  • Kattie Romaguera
    1 year ago

    The customer service at this trading firm is truly exceptional. They’re consistently available to lend a hand whenever we need assistance. Having that kind of support makes a significant difference for traders.

  • Isaac Keebler
    1 year ago

    This company tends to have pricey fees, and they enforce their stop loss rules quite strictly. It’s frustrating because even when you try to withdraw funds, it feels like they intentionally drag their feet on the process, which is definitely not a pleasant experience.

  • Marjolaine Pacocha
    1 year ago

    I had a fantastic experience with this trading firm, and I was particularly impressed by their quick payment process. It’s refreshing to see such efficiency in an industry where delays can often be the norm. Overall, my time with them has been very positive.

  • Felipa McLaughlin
    1 year ago

    I experienced excellent assistance from the Apex support team. Once I submitted my support ticket, I noticed their responsiveness; they were actively addressing my issue within minutes.

  • Larissa Spinka
    1 year ago

    They definitely deliver on their promises when it comes to payouts. In fact, they stand out as the only proprietary trading firm that lets traders retain 100% of the profits up to $25,000 across every account they hold. Plus, the criteria for passing the evaluation account are quite straightforward, making the process accessible. They also offer substantial discounts on the evaluation test, which is a great benefit for traders.

  • Winfield Ferry
    1 year ago

    I’ve just secured my second funded account, and I must say, the service has been exceptional up to this point.

  • Jamie Witting
    1 year ago

    The payout process was incredibly swift. I was impressed by how quickly I received my funds. It truly stood out as a key positive aspect of my experience with the firm. In just a matter of days, I had my earnings in hand, which made the whole trading experience much more enjoyable. This level of efficiency is certainly commendable and speaks well of their operations.

  • Erika Hagenes
    1 year ago

    Apex stands out as a remarkable option in the trading landscape. While the industry has its share of highs and lows, what matters most is having patience and determination, qualities that Apex truly appreciates and rewards. Their platforms are not only user-friendly but also incredibly efficient. I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking to make a mark in trading.

  • Melissa Runte
    1 year ago

    This company truly stands out as one of the best I’ve ever encountered.

  • Vergie Swaniawski
    1 year ago

    Apex stands out as an excellent choice. Their services are top-notch, and I’ve found their platform quite impressive. Overall, I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking to dive into proprietary trading.

  • Assunta Rath
    1 year ago

    Lately, I’ve noticed a lot of complaints about not getting paid, which has only fueled my determination to show that the opposite can be true. Honestly, I’ve reached a point in my trading journey that I’ve never experienced before. I’ve never really used a dollar-cost averaging strategy, and I’m not particularly worried about that right now. What’s more important is that every trade I consider has made me reflect deeply. Can I articulate the reasons behind each trade? Why did I choose to enter this position? What prompted my stop loss placement, and what’s my take profit target? How should I manage the trade using a trailing stop loss?

    This journey has got me truly excited about my growth as a trader and the possibility of turning this passion into a full-fledged career. I want to pass on the valuable skills I’m acquiring to my children. Additionally, I can’t wait for the day when I see that substantial payout reflecting in my account. I’ve been diligent, focusing on slow and careful account growth in the market, and it’s an exhilarating prospect.

  • Rebekah Willms
    1 year ago

    My experience with Apex has been very positive overall. Any minor issues I’ve encountered were addressed quickly and efficiently. I can’t say enough good things about their customer service, particularly my interactions with Hugo, who truly deserves special acknowledgment for his support. I would confidently recommend Apex to all traders. Thank you!

  • Larry Klein
    1 year ago

    I really appreciated the quick response from the member support team regarding an issue I encountered. It was impressive how swiftly they addressed my concern. Thank you for your prompt action!

  • Brando Gutmann
    1 year ago

    The services continue to improve, and I really appreciate the efforts of Jake and Kait. They handle my inquiries with impressive speed, demonstrating their professionalism throughout. It’s great to see such dedication in their work!

  • Ollie Herman
    1 year ago

    APEX often gives the impression of operating less like a reputable firm and more like a scammer. Firstly, it’s notable that they rarely engage with low ratings or negative feedback, which is concerning. Secondly, their pricing strategies are puzzling; they frequently advertise promotions at ridiculously low prices. If low prices are a constant, one has to wonder why they don’t simply keep them low year-round.

    Then there’s the issue of the trailing threshold, which seems designed to keep traders jumping through hoops to sign up for additional evaluations. A cynical view might suggest this is just a tactic to funnel more money from traders, as it seems many end up losing their accounts in this pursuit.

    Moreover, customers often face frustrating delays when it comes to payout notifications, with payouts denied for vague reasons despite adherence to their so-called rules. The lengthy wait for payout submission, combined with the requirement to trade for ten grueling days, adds to the stress. What if you’ve made a profit, say, $2,600 on a $50,000 account over the first eight days only to face issues or market volatility on the ninth or tenth? It raises a fair question: what’s the point of following rules if they don’t lead to a fair outcome?

    The list of grievances goes on, and frankly, I’m growing tired of dealing with this outfit. One representative even had the audacity to suggest in a video that potential clients ignore the reviews. Really? I challenge them to respond to this review with the same enthusiasm they show toward five-star ratings.

  • Adelbert Hartmann
    1 year ago

    I’m quite pleased with the level of service and the responsiveness of customer support. This firm is certainly one of the best regarded in the industry.

    Overall, it comes across as a highly professional and reputable company.

  • Michale Ritchie
    1 year ago

    The customer support at this trading firm is really impressive! I had an outstanding experience with Hugo, who was absolutely phenomenal!

  • Jason Schroeder
    1 year ago

    Apex stands out as one of the top choices out there. It’s simply the best in its class, offering exceptional trading opportunities and resources.

  • Broderick Toy
    1 year ago

    I recently completed the Apex 25K challenge, and I have to say, their customer support team is impressive. They’re really helpful and attentive, making the whole experience much smoother.

  • Reyna Brakus
    1 year ago

    I genuinely appreciate what Apex has to offer, but I’ve encountered an issue with the account resets—it’s been taking up to two hours, whereas it ideally should only require around five minutes.

  • Tyler Stanton
    1 year ago

    I received my funded account today, and I have to say, the activation process was impressively quick and seamless. Everything went smoothly throughout the setup.

    I plan to update my review following the next payout.

  • Spencer Brekke
    1 year ago

    I truly appreciate that there isn’t a maximum daily loss limit; sometimes, traders need that extra leeway to actually make profits.

    However, I do wish they could increase the payout frequency—getting paid just twice a month and only on specific days can be a bit limiting.

    That said, after receiving my first payout, I can genuinely recommend them overall.

  • Frederic Schneider
    1 year ago

    I had a really frustrating experience with Apex. They denied my two payout requests back to back, making me wait a total of 50 days, only to be told no each time. Honestly, it’s mentally exhausting dealing with scammers like this. I’m completely fed up. And one more thing—Trustpilot, please don’t remove one-star reviews. They matter!

  • Micaela Roob
    1 year ago

    There are issues with varying prices displayed on the charts. It seems like a scam, honestly.

  • Ricky Kihn
    1 year ago

    I don’t really do dollar-cost averaging or copy anyone else’s trades. While my trade sizes aren’t always super consistent, I stick to reasonable levels, trading anywhere from micros to around 2 mini contracts—nothing outrageous like an 8 NQ gain. Patience has definitely been key for me.

    Recently, I received a payout exceeding $27,000 last month.

    Just remember not to break any rules, and you should be good! Take everything you hear from others with a grain of salt.

    Looking ahead, I would appreciate a shorter payout window, though I hear they’re already making strides in that direction.

  • Donald Mitchell
    1 year ago

    I recently completed the evaluation process and I’m quite impressed. Although I’ve been trading equities and crypto for several years, this was my first experience with futures. So far, my time with Apex has been excellent, and I would definitely recommend it to others!
