Test Both Against Your Strategy Before You Pay
EA Hub can illustrate selected preset checks using supplied backtest results. It does not establish that a strategy would pass either firm. Verify current product rules, intraday equity behavior, costs, permission and payout eligibility separately.
Read the service description and terms separately. Neither account ownership nor software availability authorizes a third party to trade or copy into either firm. Check the proposed arrangement against both firms’ current rules before connecting.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which is cheaper, MyFundedFX or TopStep?
MyFundedFX: Listed directory fee: $49; verify the current product, options and full cost with the firm. TopStep: Listed directory fee: $49; verify the current product, options and full cost with the firm. Compare equivalent program sizes, add-ons, access periods, activation and repeat costs; there is no universal cheapest product from these two brand names.
How do their payout shares compare?
MyFundedFX: 80% (up to 90% with scaling) TopStep: 90% (first $10K), then 90% thereafter Compare the exact program, caps, buffers and eligibility. No payout or future result is guaranteed.
Can I run the same EA on both?
MyFundedFX: Check current product-specific EA, copying and account-access permission. TopStep: Check current product-specific EA, copying and account-access permission. Shared platform names or a recompilation do not establish permission or equivalent behavior.
Which firm is safer or more reputable?
This comparison does not establish payout safety. Company age, a parent-company relationship, review scores and location do not by themselves establish regulation, financial stability or enforceability of a payout. Check the legal counterparty, current contract and independently supportable evidence rather than inferring a winner.
What should a swing trader compare?
Check permitted holding periods, current session-closing deadlines and how each account calculates and enforces its loss floor. An end-of-day update can still be enforced against open losses intraday. Compare the exact stage and product rather than assuming that all trailing floors follow unrealized peaks.
Can I use accounts at both firms?
Check both firms' current personal-use, maximum-allocation, copying, device and strategy rules before any connection. Owning an account does not establish permission to copy a third party or have someone else trade it. More accounts do not guarantee diversified risk or payouts.
