Where you trade

The choice of platform defines the trader's daily workflow. RZR Funded focuses its infrastructure on MetaTrader 5, currently the only option for new program purchases. While they maintain support for existing MetaTrader 4 accounts, the environment is strictly geared towards the MetaQuotes ecosystem.

The5ers offers a significantly more diverse technological stack. Traders can choose between MetaTrader 5, cTrader, and TradingView. This flexibility allows for different analytical styles: from the depth of market and advanced execution of cTrader to the superior charting and community indicators of TradingView.

Who executes your orders

The execution quality depends on who is behind the book. RZR Funded utilizes its sister company, Hantec Markets, an established and regulated broker, to provide liquidity. This creates a direct link between the prop firm and a professional brokerage environment, using servers like HantecMarkets-Server3.

The5ers acts as its own liquidity provider or works with external providers (LP) without naming a specific retail broker. They operate their own servers such as FivePercentOnline-Real, which gives them total control over spreads and execution speeds across their different platforms.

Leverage and margin

Risk management is technically constrained by leverage and drawdown types.

  • RZR Funded: Offers 1:50 on Forex, 1:20 on Metals, and 1:15 on Indices/Energies. Crypto is restricted to 1:1. Regarding drawdown, the Enhanced plans use Static drawdown, while Instant and Express programs use a Trailing drawdown based on balance.
  • The5ers: Provides higher leverage in its High Stakes program at 1:100. Other programs like Hyper-Growth and Bootcamp are limited to 1:30. Their daily drawdown is generally based on the EOD (End of Day) high-watermark, calculated on the higher of balance or equity at the end of the day.

Markets available

The range of tradable assets dictates the opportunities for diversification.

  • RZR Funded: Provides access to Forex, Commodities, Indices, and Crypto.
  • The5ers: Offers a broader spectrum by including Stocks in addition to Forex, Indices, Commodities, and Crypto. This makes them a more suitable choice for traders looking to swing trade or day trade individual equities.

What the setup lets you do

The rules define the actual freedom within the platform. RZR Funded is restrictive regarding speed: it prohibits scalping, requiring the majority of trades to last longer than 3 minutes. EAs are allowed with limitations (prohibited in Instant Funding), and news trading is restricted during the funded phase (3-minute window).

The5ers is much more permissive for active styles. It allows scalping and the use of EAs across all programs. News trading is permitted in almost all plans, except for a 2-minute restriction in High Stakes (only for opening/closing orders). Bootcamp is the most rigid technically, making Stop Loss mandatory and limiting risk to 2% per position.

What the setup costs

The cost of execution is the sum of the entry fee and commissions.

  • Entry Price: RZR Funded starts at $39 for a $2,000 challenge and goes up to $1,169 for a $200,000 Enhanced account. The5ers starts lower at $19 for a $2,500 High Stakes account, while a $100,000 Classic account costs $455.
  • Commissions: RZR Funded charges $5 per lot on Forex and $1 on Metals/Energies. The5ers has a lower commission of $4 per lot on Forex, with percentage-based commissions for other assets.
  • Payouts: Hantec offers an 80% base split, payable every 14 days. The5ers starts at 50% or 80% depending on the plan, but allows scaling the profit split up to 100%.

Better setup for

  • RZR Funded is the better setup for disciplined intraday traders who value the transparency of a regulated broker connection and do not rely on high-frequency or very short-term scalping.
  • The5ers is the better setup for scalpers and algorithmic traders who need high leverage (1:100), platform variety (TradingView/cTrader), and the ability to trade stocks.

Frequently asked questions

Which firm is cheaper to start a small account, RZR Funded or The5ers?

The5ers is more accessible for small capitals, offering a $2,500 High Stakes account for just $19. In comparison, RZR Funded's smallest evaluation is a $2,000 account for $39. For those looking for an even cheaper entry without evaluation, RZR Funded offers an Instant24 account for $13, but with a very small size and strict 24-hour limits.

Can I use TradingView to execute trades in RZR Funded or The5ers?

You can only use TradingView as an execution platform in The5ers. RZR Funded limits its infrastructure to the MetaQuotes ecosystem, specifically MetaTrader 5 for new accounts, whereas The5ers provides native integration with TradingView and cTrader, offering a more modern interface for the trader.

Which firm has lower trading commissions, RZR Funded or The5ers?

The5ers has a slight advantage in execution costs with a commission of $4 per lot on Forex. RZR Funded charges $5 per lot on Forex and adds $1 per lot for Metals and Energies. Therefore, for high-volume traders, The5ers offers a more cost-effective environment per trade.

Between RZR Funded and The5ers, which one allows scalping?

The5ers fully allows scalping and high-frequency styles without minimum time restrictions. Conversely, RZR Funded has a specific rule against scalping, stating that the majority of trades must remain open for at least 3 minutes. This makes The5ers the only viable option for traders whose strategy depends on quick entries and exits.
