Verdicts

AquaFunded verdict

Cheap challenges wrapped in a dense, shifting rulebook and a damaged reputation

Best for: Disciplined traders with small, steady risk per trade who want cheap 2-step pricing, no time limits and a choice of four CFD platforms, and who will read every rule for their model.

Avoid if: You scalp, trade news, run EAs on a VPS, share a network with other traders, or need a firm with a clean, verifiable payout reputation.

Hola Prime verdict

Cheap and fast with standout support, but the 2% trade-idea rule is the account-killer to watch

Best for: Disciplined CFD swing traders who want cheap, fast evaluations, unrestricted news/weekend trading on the Prime plans, and are careful to keep risk under 2% per trade idea.

Avoid if: You rely on EAs outside a paid MT5 add-on, trade from a shared or recycled-IP VPS, or need a multi-year payout track record before committing real evaluation money.
