SHARK Futures and MyFundedFutures (MFF) are both futures prop firms with funded-trader programs and Rithmic execution. MFF made a name on aggressive promotional pricing and a wide plan menu. SHARK ships a tighter rulebook with a 6-day payout SLA. This is a straight comparison — no spin.

Where SHARK is stronger

Predictable 6-day payouts across every plan. SHARK ships one payout SLA. Same timeline whether you're funded on a $25K or a $150K. MFF's payout cadence varies by plan tier — some plans pay faster than others, some pay slower, and it can be hard to predict exactly when money lands.

Short, readable rulebook. Daily loss, EOD trailing drawdown, contract limit, flat by close. Fits on one screen. MFF's rules vary by plan type — Starter has one set of rules, Milestone has different ones. Reading the fine print matters more.

90/10 split from day one. No tier curve.

Newer, hungrier support. Same-day Discord responses during trading hours from a small team. MFF has scaled support but you're more likely to wait in a ticket queue.

Where MFF is stronger

Aggressive promo pricing. MFF runs frequent and deep promotional discounts. If you're patient and watch for sales, the effective cost on a $50K or $100K account can be very low. SHARK runs discounts too but less aggressively.

Wider plan menu. Three product tiers (Starter, Expert, Milestone) with different rule structures gives you more matching options. If you want a milestone-style plan with scaling profit targets, MFF has one; SHARK doesn't.

Larger account sizes available. MFF ships up to $400K accounts on some plans. SHARK tops out at $150K. If you want to size up beyond $150K with a single firm, MFF wins on ceiling.

Longer operational history. MFF has been shipping funded accounts longer; the volume of public payout proof is larger.

How drawdown affects you

Both use EOD trailing on most plans — the trailing maximum steps up only at the daily close, not on intraday highs. Helps traders who size up mid-session and give some back before close.

MFF has plans with static drawdown (the drawdown line doesn't move up) as a separate option. SHARK doesn't ship a static-drawdown variant — every funded account is EOD trailing.

Pricing model

SHARK: One-time per evaluation. Pay $59-$229 once, no subscription. If you take 3 months to pass, you still paid the one fee. Reset fees are discounted.

MFF: Per-evaluation pricing with frequent promotional cycles. The headline price changes often. Effective cost depends on whether you buy during a promo window.

A patient trader who watches for MFF promos may pay less than SHARK. A trader who buys on the day they decide will pay closer to SHARK pricing.

Who is each one for

Pick SHARK if you:

• Want a predictable 6-day payout SLA across every plan
• Prefer a short rulebook with no plan-specific variations
• Want a 90/10 split from the first payout
• Want a small team that responds in Discord same-day
• Trade within the $25K-$150K account range

Pick MFF if you:

• Want to wait for promo cycles to get the cheapest entry price
• Need account sizes above $150K (MFF goes up to $400K)
• Want a wider plan menu (Starter / Expert / Milestone)
• Prefer a static-drawdown plan variant
• Value the longer operational history

Both are legitimate firms with real funded traders getting paid. The right pick depends on your account-size needs, patience for promo windows, and whether plan optionality matters to you.
