Legends TradingLegends Trading 25K Elite: Rules, Cost & Payout Analysis
How it scores
Legends Trading 25K Elite ranks #38 of the 64 25K futures plans we benchmark, with a PropBench Score of 49. Its strongest part is cost, its weakest is rules.
One try costs $99. The evaluation needs $1,500 on a $1,250 end of day trailing drawdown (1 in 2.6). The funded account needs $1,500 on a $1,250 end of day trailing drawdown (1 in 2.6). Together that is about 1 in 7 tries to a first payout on coin flip odds, so a first payout costs $693 on average (the typical plan of this size: $1,011).
A steady trader making $100 a day gets the first payout after 30 trading days and keeps $4,500 from 3 months of funded trading.
Cost$693 per first payout76
A trader with no edge reaches a profit of d before losing a static drawdown of D with chance D ÷ (D + d). A trailing floor that follows the peak gives e−d ÷ D; end of day trailing counts halfway between the two.
