A better way to become a trader

Most traders never get the chance to find out how good they really are. Not because they lack skill. But because trading with your own money makes it almost impossible to survive the learning curve. 

  • One bad trade.
  • One emotional mistake.
  • One overleveraged position.

And the account is gone.

Topstep gives traders a chance to prove themselves without risking their life savings, with a 14-day satisfaction guarantee.

The platform behind the payouts

TopstepX was built to help traders get funded and stay funded.

✓ 99.99% uptime2
✓ Tradingview Charts & Indicators
✓ Built-in risk management
✓ Real-time performance tracking
✓ Designed for the funded trader journey

It started with one trader.

Before founding Topstep, Michael Patak lost nearly $100,000 learning to trade the hard way.

He built the company he wished existed when he started: A place where traders could learn, improve, and never have to do it alone.

Today, Topstep has grown into one of the largest trading communities in the world, helping hundreds of thousands of traders learn, get funded, and pursue their goals.

Think you can trade?
