Vanquish Trader

Vanquish Trader is a prop firm for options traders. Instead of forex or futures, it sells simulated evaluations on options, and describes itself as a simulation-to-funded proprietary trading firm aimed at retail options traders. There are two plans, Basic Options and Advanced Options, each in $10,000, $50,000, $75,000, $100,000 and $150,000 sizes, traded on DXTrade's web and mobile apps. Pricing is a monthly subscription rather than a one-off challenge fee: $99 to $750 a month for Basic Options and $199 to $1,499 a month for Advanced Options, and the subscription keeps running on the funded Performance Account. The Vanquish Trader terms open the program only to legal residents of the 50 US states and DC.

Both plans are a single evaluation with a 10% profit target, a 5% maximum drawdown and no time limit. On Basic Options the drawdown trails the account's equity peak and the evaluation needs at least 10 trades. Advanced Options uses an end-of-day trailing drawdown and a minimum of 4 trading days. The consistency rule is 30% on both: no single trade on Basic Options, and no single day on Advanced Options, may make up more than 30% of total profit, though going over it delays passing rather than failing the account. No position may be held overnight; trades still open at 3:59pm EST are liquidated at market. SPX, XSP and VIX options can only be bought as single-leg calls or puts. HFT that exploits the simulated bid-ask spread, and exploiting latency or pricing errors, leads to a permanent ban with payouts forfeited. Resets are unlimited, and Basic Options resets cost $49 to $375.

Vanquish Trader says all payouts are 100% the trader's. A Performance Account has no profit target; a payout needs at least $250 and consistency within 30%, plus 4 trading days on Advanced Options. Traders can make one payout request a day across all their accounts, paid through a KYC-verified RiseWorks account by ACH bank transfer, USDC or USDT, and payouts typically take up to 48 hours to finalise after approval.

Prop Firm Pal has not verified Vanquish Trader, so this is not an endorsement: it is what the record shows. Its website has been active in Prop Firm Pal's monthly traffic record since November 2025, and traffic over the last three months is declining. Its payout policy is published, and summarised on the Payouts tab.

Prop Firm Pal has tracked Vanquish Trader's website traffic every month since November 2025. In August 2026 the site received an estimated 62.12K visits, down 13% on the month before and down 17% over three months.

Its busiest month on record was May 2026 at roughly 74.48K visits. Traffic now is 17% below that peak.

These are third-party estimates of website visits, collected once a month and stored against the month they describe. They are not trader counts, funded-account numbers or revenue.

Measured on estimated monthly website visits for August 2026, Vanquish Trader ranks 119 of the 477 prop firms Prop Firm Pal tracks — larger than 75% of them, at roughly 62.12K visits a month.

The ranking covers every firm measured between June 2026 and August 2026, each on its own latest reading in that window. Firms last measured before June 2026 are left out rather than shown with a stale figure, so the total moves month to month.

Size is not quality. A large firm is one that markets successfully, and several of the most visited firms in this ranking have the strictest rules; some of the smallest pay out reliably to everyone who asks. What the ranking is useful for is scale — whether you are looking at an established operation or something very new.
