Topstep — IFTC Accredited Firm

Topstep is a US-based proprietary trading company focused on the futures markets. Its origins date back to Chicago's trading environment, with Topstep's funded trader model operating since 2012.

The company evaluates traders through its Trading Combine®, a simulated trading evaluation designed to assess performance, discipline and risk management before traders can progress through its funded trading ecosystem.

Topstep has established a long operating history within the futures prop trading sector and has developed its own trading ecosystem, including the TopstepX platform.

IFTC's review identified Topstep as an established participant in the futures proprietary trading industry with a substantial operating history, identifiable corporate structure and clearly documented evaluation and risk-management framework.

Its longevity, futures-focused business model, published trading rules and structured pathway between evaluation, simulated funded trading and potential live funded trading were among the elements considered by IFTC.

As of the certification date, Topstep meets the standards required to maintain Accredited status within the IFTC registry.

Accreditation reflects IFTC's assessment of the firm at the relevant review and certification date, based on the information and evidence available to the Commission at that time. It does not describe the firm's future conduct and does not remove trading, operational or counterparty risk.

IFTC may review, suspend or withdraw a firm's listing status at any time if material concerns arise or if new information becomes available. Traders should always carry out their own due diligence, including a careful review of the firm's trading rules, evaluation conditions, payout requirements and contractual terms.
