Which one fits?

Alpha Futures is best for cost-sensitive cme futures traders who want fast (1-2 business day) payouts, a strong public review record, and the current 90% payout split — and who can accept a newer firm with per-payout caps rather than uncapped withdrawals.
MyFundedFutures is best for cme futures intraday traders prioritising fast payouts, eod trailing drawdown, and the lowest entry cost in the peer group.
