Short answer: This tracker logs what each prop firm has published about its own status, with dates and links to the source. A status reflects the latest source we checked, not our opinion. Check the date and confirm with the firm.
Educational factual log only. This page has no affiliate links, promo codes or paid placement. If or when other pages on this site use affiliate links, those pages disclose them and point to our disclaimer. See also how we research.

Methodology
A status comes only from a firm-published source: the firm’s homepage, a notice on its site, its help center, or an official social account it controls. We do not use press reports, forums, review sites or other third-party commentary as a status source.
- Operating (per firm site) — the firm’s live marketing or home page presents an active product offering, quoted on the row.
- Paused / not accepting new sign-ups (per firm notice) — the firm itself says it is not accepting new sign-ups.
- Announced relaunch (per firm site) — the firm itself announces a return or relaunch.
- Not verified — we could not read a usable operating, pause or relaunch notice. If the site could not be reached, the label includes the date we tried. That says nothing about why.
We do not infer that a firm has ended operations. Company figures the firm publishes are labeled self-reported when we repeat them; this tracker does not repeat those figures as facts. A row not checked for 14 days is marked Stale. A status older than 45 days without a re-check reverts to Not verified.
Corrections
A firm that disputes a row can write through the contact page. We review the firm-published source it points to, log the dispute, and update the row when that source supports a different status. The response window is set by the site owner.
How to check a firm yourself
- Open the firm’s own website and read what it currently publishes about sign-ups.
- For published drawdown, targets, splits and fees, use the prop firm rule checker.
- A prop-firm evaluation is a different product from a forex fund or managed account. See forex funds vs prop-firm funded accounts.
- If you are checking a manager who would trade your capital, start with how to check a forex manager's track record.
Common questions
What does this tracker show?
It logs what each listed firm has published about its own status — operating, paused, announced relaunch, or not verified — with the date we checked and a link to that firm’s page. It is not our judgment of the firm.
Does a status mean you recommend the firm?
No. Inclusion is not a ranking, endorsement or a recommendation to buy an evaluation. Firm names are used only to identify the published source.
Why is a firm marked Not verified?
We use that label when the firm has not published a usable operating, pause or relaunch notice on a page we could read, or when a check is older than 45 days. If the firm’s site could not be reached, the label includes the date we tried.
How often is this updated?
The operator plan is a weekly check for every listed firm, and a daily check during a week the firm itself has dated. A row not checked for 14 days is marked Stale. After 45 days without a re-check the status reverts to Not verified.
Can you help with my account or a payout?
No. We cannot help with your account. Contact the firm directly through the channels it publishes.
How do I report a wrong row?
Use the contact page. We log disputes and update the row when a firm-published source shows a different status.
