Take Profit Trader review

Yes. It is run by TakeProfitTrader LLC, a Florida company registered in 2021 under named CEO James Sixsmith, holds BBB accreditation and has more than 10,800 Trustpilot reviews averaging 4.4. Funded PRO accounts are simulated; only invited PRO+ traders trade live through Tradovate.

Yes. Recent reviews include dozens of payout confirmations and only isolated payout complaints. The disputes that do appear involve profit inside the buffer, withdrawals declined during a move to PRO+, or profits forfeited after a counter-position or risk finding.

On Tradovate PRO accounts the account-to-wallet step is automated and takes seconds once the dashboard updates around 8-9 PM ET. The wallet payout then goes through a compliance review of up to 12 business hours, after which US bank transfers via Plaid are usually instant and PayPal or Wise arrive within 12 business hours. Rithmic and PRO+ withdrawals are still reviewed manually.

The firm says 36.22% of all Trading Tests were passed in 2025, which is high for the industry. The figure counts tests rather than traders and says nothing about how many PRO traders reach a payout.

The ones that catch people are the intraday trailing drawdown in PRO, the locked buffer, the news blackout around FOMC, NFP and CPI on funded accounts, the weekly trading requirement and the zero-tolerance counter-position rule. Since 2026 a Sustainable Trading Policy also lets the firm restrict or drop traders it considers too aggressive.

No. Tests, PRO and standard PRO+ accounts only have a trailing drawdown. Only the restricted PRO+ Development accounts carry a soft daily loss limit that pauses trading for the rest of the day.

During the test, yes, with no restriction. In PRO and PRO+ you must be flat from one minute before to one minute after FOMC statements, NFP and CPI, and breaking that window can cost the account.

No. Automated trading, bots and algos are banned on every account type. You may use approved trade copiers, but only across accounts you own.

Yes, it is a US company and US traders get instant payouts through Plaid. It blocks about 120 other countries, including several EU members such as Bulgaria, Croatia, Malta, Romania and Slovenia.

The firm's own site-wide code is NOFEE40, which takes 40% off the monthly test fee for the life of that test and waives the $130 activation fee. Shorter flash sales with bigger discounts appear a few times a year.

Tests are monthly subscriptions: $150 for $25K, $170 for $50K, $245 for $75K, $330 for $100K and $360 for $150K at list price. You pay a one-time $130 activation fee after passing, and the subscription keeps billing until you pass or cancel.

TakeProfitTrader LLC of Windermere, Florida, founded and led by CEO James Sixsmith. Florida records list Oslo Six Management Services Corporation as manager and Oslo Six Investment Services LLLP as member.

A failed test can be reset for $79-$199, or kept active and reset free at the next monthly renewal. A blown PRO account can be reset up to three times for $449-$1,499, and any profit left in the buffer is paid at 50% or 80% depending on how long the account traded.

PRO is a simulated funded account with an 80% split, an intraday drawdown and a withdrawal buffer. PRO+ is a live Tradovate account offered by invitation, with a 90% split, an end-of-day drawdown and no buffer, but the move freezes $5,000 of PRO profit while PRO+ is active.
