Methods
Zero and Advanced accounts allow payout requests after 5 non-consecutive winning trading days of $200 or more. Advanced minimum request is $1,000 with a $15,000 maximum. Zero minimum request is $200, with maximums of $1,000 on 25K, $1,500 on 50K, and $2,500 on 100K. Premium was discontinued on July 12, 2026; active Premium accounts were refunded and closed, so Premium tiered caps are not a current purchasable plan. Direct payout mechanics were not fully published in the July 12 comparison tables used for this correction — confirm live Direct rules before purchase. Withdrawal requests remove the requested amount from the trading account, and the trader receives 90%.

Alpha Futures is a futures prop firm in the Alpha Capital Group ecosystem (UK headquarters) offering one-step evaluations. Homepage (16 Aug 2026) markets Standard as back with public code ALPHA40 — confirm live SKU availability at checkout; this does not restore the discontinued Premium plan.
Alpha's July 12, 2026 partner-exit notice discontinued the Premium plan and stated that active Premium accounts were refunded and closed. Remaining plans named in that notice are Zero, Advanced, and Direct.
Existing Zero, Advanced, and Direct accounts that had been on NinjaTrader, Tradovate, or TradingView-via-Tradovate were migrated to AlphaTrader. This entry structures Zero and Advanced sizes from Alpha's published comparison tables and does not add a full Direct size matrix in this correction.
Zero emphasizes $0 activation with daily loss limits and qualified-stage payout consistency (often ~40% on Zero payouts) while evaluation consistency may be absent on Zero. Advanced tends to price higher with different target/drawdown geometry, a $149 activation fee, no Daily Loss Guard, and no qualified-stage consistency rule.
Across remaining plans, Alpha Futures is commonly discussed with end-of-day trailing maximum loss limits and a path toward live trading through Alpha Prime for eligible traders. Payout marketing: up to about four times per month after five winning trading days of $200+, methods including ACH, wire, SWIFT, Wise, and Rise, with ~48 business hour processing language and high advertised splits (often 90%).
Seed size examples include $25K Zero (~$79, $1,500 target / $1,000 drawdown, $500 DLL, 1 contract), $50K Advanced/Zero variants with targets $3,000–$4,000 and drawdowns $1,750–$2,000, and $100K lines scaling targets to $6,000–$8,000. Platforms currently listed on Alpha's platforms page: AlphaTrader, WealthCharts, Quantower, and Deepcharts.
The NinjaTrader partnership — including Tradovate and TradingView connected through Tradovate — ended July 12, 2026 and those are not current platforms. Eval/qualified accounts must typically flat before ~4:20 PM ET; weekend holding off; EAs listed as not allowed while scalping is allowed — automation traders must verify.
Traders who want EOD trailing risk, multi-plan shopping inside one brand family, and international payout method flexibility.
Traders who need NinjaTrader or Tradovate, EA users if policy remains blocked, overnight swing traders on evaluation rules.
Zero $0-activation path and Advanced's higher payout cap, offset by plan complexity and the July 2026 platform migration onto AlphaTrader. Compare Zero vs MyFundedFutures $0 activation plans and Advanced vs higher-target products.
Pick Zero vs Advanced vs Direct first, then confirm qualified payout consistency and current platform access before checkout. Confirm EA prohibition and flat-by-4:20 ET rules if your strategy depends on either automation or late holds.
Based on the structured rules and product flags we track, Alpha Futures tends to fit traders who prefer a one-step evaluation path; futures-focused traders. Compare profit targets, max loss, and payout frequency against your strategy before paying an evaluation fee.
