Topstep: accounts & rules

TopstepX, their own terminal, with Quantower on some accounts. There is no Rithmic or CQG route, so R|Trader Pro is not available.

The site was read on 2026-09-19 and carried no promotional code: the "save up to $30/month" wording belongs to the Double Payout Caps option, not to a discount. Prices here are therefore list prices, which for Topstep is the price you pay.

Review prohibited strategies; no support or exceptions for malfunctioning bots.

Rapid trades or algorithms exploiting simulated fills, queue position or slippage are prohibited. This is not unrestricted permission for every scalping strategy.

Only the $6K Challenge was featured on the public Labs page during this review. Earlier drops are documented, not confirmed in stock.

Consult product-specific risk adjustments; permissions may vary by drop.
