EVEDEX — futures prop firm alternative
Your own margin sets the account size: 50 USDT opens 1,500 USDT of notional, 335 USDT opens 10,000 and 3,335 USDT opens 100,000. Before you start, read prop trading strategies.
Perpetual futures in 3 steps
No Combine, no profit target, no waiting period before the first trade.
Log in and deposit
Sign in with a wallet, email or social account and deposit USDT. There is no traditional KYC; deposits pass automated AML screening.
Post your own margin
Move 50 USDT into Funded Trading for 1,500 USDT of notional, or up to 3,335 USDT for 100,000 USDT. The margin stays yours until a trade loses it.
Pick a pair and size it
Margin equals notional divided by leverage: 10x on 1,000 USDT reserves 100 USDT. Unfilled orders cost nothing, and only executed ones pay a fee.

Perpetual vs listed futures
Same directional bet, different plumbing: no expiry date, no session calendar and no firm rulebook on top.
No expiry, no roll
A listed future has a delivery month and has to be rolled. A perpetual has neither, so a position stays open as long as margin covers it, weekends and holidays included.
Funding instead of carry
Funding is calculated every 8 hours per pair and charged hourly at one eighth of the rate, passing directly between longs and shorts. EVEDEX takes no side in that payment.
No daily loss rule
No firm-imposed daily drawdown can be breached on EVEDEX: the ceiling is your own margin. Cross margin means the whole futures balance backs every open position.
Leverage in stated tiers
200x applies only to BTC-USD, ETH-USD and SOL-USD up to $50,000 of notional. XRP, oil, silver and gold reach 100x, 24 pairs 75x and 18 pairs 50x.
Prop firm fees vs trading fees
A subscription is due whether or not you trade; a percentage fee is only due when an order fills.
A subscription is due whether or not you trade; a percentage fee is only due when you do. Prop firm evaluations charge a fixed or monthly fee before any payout.
EVEDEX charges no such fee: a $10,000 taker order costs 4.50 USDT, and nothing is charged between trades.
FAQ
They are firms that sell an evaluation, a paid test on exchange-listed futures, and then let successful candidates trade a simulated account for a share of the profit.
Entry ranges from tens to hundreds of dollars per evaluation, and some firms bill monthly until you pass. EVEDEX charges no such fee: you trade from your own margin.
No. EVEDEX is a hybrid perpetual futures exchange with off-chain matching and on-chain settlement on Arbitrum. It sells no tests and grants no capital: you post your own margin, 50 USDT for 1,500 USDT of notional and up to 3,335 USDT for 100,000, and keep all of the profit.
A listed future expires on a delivery date and trades during exchange sessions, so positions have to be rolled. A perpetual never expires and trades 24/7; instead of carry, funding is calculated every 8 hours and charged hourly at one eighth of the rate between longs and shorts.
Most do, and breaching it ends the account. EVEDEX imposes no daily rule, because the ceiling is the margin you posted yourself.
It depends on the pair: 200x on BTC-USD, ETH-USD and SOL-USD up to $50,000 of notional, 100x on XRP, oil, silver and gold, 75x on 24 pairs and 50x on 18 more, with 10x on the two pre-market contracts. The cap falls as the position grows.
All 52 EVEDEX pairs are perpetual and trade 24/7: 39 crypto pairs, five stocks, Tether Gold, silver, WTI oil, EURUSD, USDJPY, the SPY index and two pre-market contracts. Exchange-listed futures close for sessions and holidays, which is where most of the practical difference sits.
A prop firm subscription is due every month until you pass, filled orders or not. EVEDEX charges a maximum of 0.015% maker and 0.045% taker before cashback, so a $10,000 taker order costs $4.50 and an unfilled order costs nothing. Cashback of up to 35% cuts the effective rate further.
