ONYX Futures Review: Rules, Profit Split & Payouts
ONYX Futures (Onyx Futures LLC) is a futures prop firm with an unusual structure: it sells one evaluation, and passing it opens a live account at a real broker in the firm's own name rather than a simulated funded account. There is no funded stage or second test in between. Every evaluation starts on a $100,000 account, and the plan you buy is named by its drawdown, which ONYX calls your risk budget: Starter ($1,000), Core ($1,500), Pro ($2,000) and MAX ($3,000), each with a Static or EOD floor. ONYX lists R|Trader Pro, Quantower, Sierra Chart, MultiCharts and ATAS among the Rithmic-compatible platforms traders use, with CME, CBOT, NYMEX and COMEX futures and their micros.
The ONYX Futures rules differ by floor. A Static drawdown never moves and is checked intraday, with a profit target of twice the drawdown; an EOD trailing drawdown moves up at each close, with a target of 1.75 times the drawdown. The evaluation has a daily loss limit of 40% of the drawdown, a 35% consistency rule, a minimum of 5 trading days and no time limit. Positions must be flat 2 minutes before tier one releases such as FOMC, NFP and CPI, and automated trading and overnight or weekend holds are not permitted in the evaluation. Hedging is banned everywhere, and traders can hold up to six active evaluations.
Once live, the consistency rule, daily loss limit, news restriction and holding restrictions fall away, and EAs are permitted. Each further pass credits the same live account by that plan's drawdown. The profit split is 90%, withdrawals can be requested daily with a $100 minimum and no cap, and each is approved within 24 hours and sent by ACH or bank wire, never crypto. ID and a W-9 or W-8BEN are needed first. The evaluation is a one-time fee through PayPal with no activation fee; prices are not published on the rule pages. Resets cost $89 on Static and $79 on EOD, commissions are $0.10 per contract per side, and fees are not refundable once credentials are issued.

Prop Firm Pal has tracked ONYX Futures's website traffic every month since May 2026. In September 2026 the site received an estimated 7.53K visits, down 65% on the month before and up 809% over three months.
Its busiest month on record was August 2026 at roughly 21.45K visits. Traffic now is 65% below that peak.
Growth of this size usually means active marketing rather than anything about payout reliability. A firm can grow quickly and still have strict rules.
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.

How ONYX Futures compares in size
Measured on estimated monthly website visits for September 2026, ONYX Futures ranks 240 of the 467 prop firms Prop Firm Pal tracks — larger than 49% of them, at roughly 7.53K visits a month.
The ranking covers every firm measured between July 2026 and September 2026, each on its own latest reading in that window. Firms last measured before July 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.

FAQs
What is the ONYX Futures profit split?
90%. The rule book says you keep 90 percent of everything the live account makes and ONYX keeps 10 percent.
How do ONYX Futures payouts work?
You can request a withdrawal every day, with a $100 minimum and no cap on the amount. Each request is reviewed by a person and approved within 24 hours, and money is sent by ACH bank transfer or domestic or international bank wire, not crypto; a photo ID and a W-9 or W-8BEN must be on file before the first withdrawal.
What are the ONYX Futures drawdown rules?
You choose a drawdown of $1,000, $1,500, $2,000 or $3,000 and a Static or EOD floor. A Static floor stays fixed and is checked intraday and at the close; an EOD floor trails your highest closing balance and is checked at the close only. The evaluation also has a daily loss limit of 40% of the drawdown, and breaching the floor closes the account.
Does ONYX Futures have a consistency rule?
Yes, in the evaluation only. No single day may count for more than 35% of the profit target; if one does, the target rises so the day equals 35% of it, with no penalty. The live account has no consistency rule.
How much does an ONYX Futures evaluation cost?
The rule pages read do not state evaluation prices. Each evaluation is a one-time fee paid through PayPal, with no subscription, activation, data or platform fee; the only later charge is an optional reset at $89 on Static or $79 on EOD, and fees are not refundable once credentials are issued.
