My funded $100k account has been stable on TradingView without glitches. I'd happily recommend TradeDay to anyone serious about getting funded.

Payout process was a headache

The platform crashed during a live trade and I had to reconnect blind. Each add-on is optional on paper, yet you feel forced to buy them to stay competitive.

Responsive and knowledgeable team

The firm stuck to every term I read before I bought the challenge. It took roughly a day for my money to clear, which is faster than my last firm. Great experience on TradingView, and I'd repeat it tomorrow.

Stay away from TradeDay

Unclear fee structure, unclear refund rules, and a price that keeps creeping up. If payout speed matters to you, look elsewhere.

Okay overall, some friction

Email support took a while, but they did apologize for the delay. The identity form was mostly simple, though a couple of fields did not make sense for my country. Honestly, the fee is fine if you pass first try, and painful if you don't.
