Overview
Top One Futures is a prop firm built specifically for futures traders. Unlike multi-asset firms that offer futures as an afterthought, Top One Futures focuses entirely on CME Group products -- ES, NQ, YM, RTY, CL, GC, and more.
Since the Top One 2.0 relaunch in August 2026 there are two routes in: one-phase evaluations (Elite Daily, Elite Access) or instant funding (Instant Sim Funded, S2F Sim Pro, Ignite). Every account type comes in $25K, $50K, $100K, and $150K sizes. There are no scaling requirements to maintain your account, which means less pressure on funded traders.
Top One Futures supports trading via ProjectX/Tradovate and NinjaTrader. With a 90% profit split and flexible evaluation paths, they are a strong choice for futures day traders and scalpers who want a focused platform without the noise of forex or stocks.
