Tradeify in one paragraph
The 'simple and safe' pick: true EOD trailing drawdown on every product, one-time fee, no activation, 90/10 immediately, and a daily payout route (Select Daily). Only firm at this price with zero drawdown-switch gotcha. Respect the hedging auto-breach rule, opposing positions overlapping more than 10 seconds can kill the account and forfeit profits. The account ceiling is 5 funded accounts, or 8 if you hold Select 300K V2 accounts, which sit on top of the standard 5 and are themselves capped at 3 on that size.

Still unbeatable for one thing: mass scaling, up to 20 copied accounts at $178 all-in each for a 150K Intraday, or $309 for the standard 150K EOD path, $249 if you take the No-Activation-Fee EOD variant instead. But Apex 4.0's hard 6-payout lifetime cap with balance forfeiture converts it into a repeat-purchase treadmill (max ~$20,500 lifetime per 150K account), and its rule-churn history is the worst of the legit firms. For cap-farming at scale only; skip if you want one long-lived compounding account.
