Overview

Tenacity Trading runs weekly futures trading competitions rather than a classic evaluation. Its Terms of Use name the operator as "Tenacity Trading, Corp." The homepage says each entry is a "$50K Direct to Sim-Funded Account" with "NO evaluation", "NO daily loss limit" and "NO consistency rules".

Each week, 80% of every entry fee goes into a Competition Entry Fund. At the end of the week that fund is paid out as prizes by leaderboard rank. The firm says traders keep 100% of their competition award. Its customer compensation disclosure states that "Funded accounts may include simulated, live, or copied accounts."

Our evidence is a capture of the firm's homepage, rules page, FAQ page, Terms of Use and competition dashboard. The FAQ page we saw lists its questions but not the answers, so several topics (platforms, payout methods, news trading, bots, restricted countries) are not covered here.

Everything in this review comes from Tenacity Trading's own web pages, saved on 10 October 2026. Rules and prices change, so check the firm's site before you buy.

Programmes and Prices

Maximum contracts1 Mini (10 micros)

Maximum accounts per competition5
RunsMonday 9:30 am EST to Friday 5:00 pm EST

You can buy an account up until each Friday at 2:00 pm EST, or buy early for the following week. When we checked, the competition dashboard showed a competition named "Weekly 10-12" accepting entries, starting 12 October 2026 at 9:30 AM ET, and listed 26 completed competitions.

Trading Rules

These rules apply to the Weekly Competition account.

  • Maximum position: 1 Mini contract (10 micros).
  • Maximum drawdown: $2,000, static. An account at or below a net P&L of −$2,000 is treated as bust, removed from the payout schedule and receives no award.
  • No daily loss limit and no consistency rules (homepage).
  • No minimum trading days (rules page).
  • Each account is ranked individually.

The rules page's "General Rules" also list "No Hedging" and "No Equilibrium". The pages we saw do not explain what "No Equilibrium" covers.

Restrictions and Markets

The homepage's "Available Instruments" disclosure says participants may trade only futures listed on the CME, COMEX, NYMEX and CBOT exchanges. It states that spot currencies, CFDs, stocks, options and cryptocurrencies are "strictly prohibited". The same page's pricing box says "All Futures Exchanges are Allowed". We have used the more specific exchange list from that disclosure. The rules page names the product the "Weekly NQ Competition"; the pages we saw do not say whether other contracts are allowed in it.

The FAQ page lists questions on news trading, bots and algorithmic systems, copy trading, weekend trading, time-based trading limits and restricted countries. Our capture does not include the answers, so we cannot report the firm's position on these.

How Prizes Are Paid

At the close of each competition, accounts are ranked by net realised P&L, which the firm defines as trading profit net of commissions and fees. 80% of every account fee goes into the Competition Entry Fund, which is the prize pool. The other 20% covers administrative fees.

The pool is split on a top-weighted schedule. The rules page gives the formula: "Award = ( Your Position's Weight ÷ Total Weight of All Paid Positions ) × Prize Pool". Prizes go down the leaderboard until the next award would fall below $200. A larger field gives a larger pool and more paid places.

To be paid, your account balance must be above the $50,000 starting balance when the competition ends. Accounts that never place a trade, or do not finish in profit, are not eligible even if their rank would otherwise win a prize.

The firm's worked example uses a $40,000 Entry Fund. In it, 44 traders are paid and first place receives $9,181. In that example table, rank 44 is shown at $232 while ranks 36 to 43 are shown at $220, and the homepage text says the $200 minimum is reached at rank 44.

The firm says traders receive 100% of their scheduled competition award and that it does not retain a share. A homepage banner reads "NO MORE 90/10 PROFIT SPLIT — KEEP 100% OF YOUR COMPETITION PAYOUTS!" The homepage also says the firm has paid out $105,406; this is the firm's own claim.

Live Funded Account

The homepage describes a path to a Live Funded Account. It says that below $2,000 you "Receive 100% of all account profits as a payout", and above $2,000 "Profits are transferred to a Live Funded Account." It also says "Users may take their wallet balance to live once it is above $2,000".

The FAQ page has a Live Account section with questions on starting parameters, profitable trading days, the payout split, the first payout and the maximum payout. One question reads "Does the 90% payout apply to profits transferred to Live Funded Accounts?" Our capture does not include the answers, so we cannot confirm the Live Funded Account split or rules.

Company and Terms

The Terms of Use are an agreement with "Tenacity Trading, Corp." and say the website is only for people aged 18 or over. The refund policy reads "No Refunds." and the Terms state that all purchases are final and non-refundable. The contact address given is info@tenacitytrading.co.

The homepage disclosure says "Tenacity Trading is not an investment opportunity" and that "At no time is a participant's personal capital at risk within this program." The same footer includes an "Evaluation Disclaimer" describing an evaluation process, although the homepage says the competition has no evaluation.

Who It Suits

Tenacity Trading suits futures traders who want a short, fixed-week contest on a $50K sim account with a static $2,000 drawdown and a 1 Mini contract cap. Because prizes go only to profitable accounts in the paid ranks, a profitable week does not guarantee a payout. Entries are non-refundable.
