Here is our full independent review of Forexive:
Forexive Ltd (Company No. 15746920) was founded on 30 September 2024 and is registered in the United Kingdom, led by CEO Hooman Abbasi. The firm operates from Czech Republic and is active in 180+ countries with a team of 100+. Forexive offers two evaluation tracks (1-Step and 2-Step) with a top split reaching 95% and a maximum initial account of $250,000, scaling to $2,000,000. All accounts run on MetaTrader 4 and MetaTrader 5. Instruments are currently limited to Forex only.
As a September 2024 launch, Forexive has a very limited public operating history. TheTrustedProp’s verification score of 60/100 (Average) reflects this early-stage status. The firm offers swap-free accounts, copy trading, and EA support as standard, with a commission of $3 per round lot.
1-Step Challenge ($65-$1,099 for $5K-$200K): Single phase, 10% profit target. Daily loss: 3% (equity-based static). Max drawdown: 6% (equity-based static). Leverage: 1:50 standard, 1:30 swing. Minimum 3 profitable trading days. Profit split: 80-95%. Unlimited time. No consistency rule published. Best for traders who prefer a single-phase evaluation with moderate drawdown parameters.
2-Step Challenge ($49-$999 for $5K-$200K): Phase 1: 10% target. Phase 2: 5% target. Daily loss: 5% (equity-based static). Max drawdown: 12% (equity-based static — one of the widest buffers in the 2-Step category). Leverage: 1:100 standard, 1:30 swing. Minimum 3 profitable trading days. Profit split: 80-95%. Unlimited time. The 12% max drawdown gives traders significant room to manage normal drawdown cycles across both evaluation phases.
Platforms: MetaTrader 4, MetaTrader 5. Instruments: Forex only. Spreads from 0.0 pips. Match Trader and cTrader are listed as coming soon — the platform roadmap suggests expansion is planned but not yet available. Leverage up to 1:100 (2-Step) and 1:50 (1-Step).
Forexive earns a 6.0 BestProp score. The 2-Step 12% maximum drawdown is genuinely competitive — matching FundsCap’s industry-leading buffer at comparable fees. The 95% maximum profit split is among the highest published by any prop firm. EAs, copy trading, and swap-free accounts are all standard. Multiple crypto and bank payout methods add withdrawal flexibility.
The primary concerns: Forexive launched in September 2024 and has less than a year of operation at publication. TheTrustedProp’s 60/100 verification score is average and reflects the limited track record. Instruments are restricted to Forex only — no metals, indices, or crypto — which eliminates the firm for multi-asset traders. The $3/lot commission adds ongoing cost for active traders. Platforms beyond MT4/MT5 are still listed as coming soon. The customer rating of 4.1/5 is modest compared to established competitors. The combination of very young age, Forex-only instruments, and average trust score makes Forexive a monitored watch rather than a confident first-choice recommendation at this stage.
Here is our full independent review of The Trading Pit:
The Trading Pit was founded in 2021 and is registered in Liechtenstein (FL-0002.693.417-1), making it one of the few prop firms headquartered in an EU-adjacent jurisdiction. Under CEO Daniela Egli, the firm has scaled to over 10,000 active monthly accounts, recorded 450,000+ monthly trades, and paid out more than $16 million to funded traders.
The Trading Pit offers four tracks: CFD 1-Phase, CFD 2-Phase, Futures, and Stocks. CFD programs use MT4, MT5, and cTrader and cover forex, metals, indices, crypto, and US equities. The Futures program runs on Tradovate with access to CME, EUREX, CBOT, COMEX, and NYMEX markets. The Stocks program provides direct access to equity markets with $25K and $50K account sizes.
CFD programs use a static balance-based drawdown (calculated from initial balance). The Futures program uses a trailing drawdown model. Notably, Futures accounts feature a daily pause mechanism rather than a hard daily cut — when the daily drawdown limit is hit, the account is suspended for the remainder of that trading day rather than being terminated.
News trading is prohibited on CFD and Stocks programs with a 2-minute blackout window around major economic releases. The Futures program allows news trading. Expert Advisors are permitted but scalping under 1 minute, arbitrage, and signal copying across accounts are all prohibited. Overnight holding is allowed; cross-account hedging is not. Martingale strategies are banned.
CFD commissions are $5 per lot for forex, metals, and energies; 20% for crypto; 0% for US equities; and 20% for EU/UK equities.
CFD payouts are bi-weekly; Futures payouts are weekly. Payment methods include credit card, PayPal, Apple Pay, Google Pay, crypto, and BinancePay. Payouts are made via bank wire, crypto, Binance, or Perfect Money. Maximum account allocation is $400,000 across all accounts.
