What could each one pay you?

An illustration, not a forecast: a steady monthly return on the funded account, at each firm's starting split, against the fee for its cheapest account at that size. Most traders do not pass, and returns are rarely steady.

Maven: allowed with limits (On Standard 1-, 2- and 3-step accounts, trades on affected instruments may not be opened or closed from 2 minutes before to 2 minutes after red-folder releases.
