Traders who buy on discount and run several accounts. Apex is almost always on a large sale, allows up to 20 funded accounts at once, and the evaluation can be passed in a single day.
Apex uses an intraday trailing drawdown on both the evaluation and the funded account, which gives you much less room than end-of-day. There are no resets, so a failed evaluation means buying a new one. Funded accounts have a 50% consistency rule, a daily loss limit and news restrictions. At list price it is $308 to get funded on 50K, including the activation fee.
Only compare Apex on its sale price, never its list price. Against Take Profit Trader the cost is similar, but Take Profit Trader pays from day one. For an end-of-day drawdown, look at Tradeify or Topstep.
