Why it's on the watchlist

Earned payouts were not honored. On 12 July 2026 Alpha closed its Premium plan and converted pending, already-earned payouts into refunds of the account fee — traders who had qualified were handed their evaluation cost back instead of the money they had made. The same week NinjaTrader terminated Alpha's contract after Alpha launched its own competing platform, forcing a migration to AlphaTrader; Premium was the second plan retired in roughly ten weeks, after Standard ended on 1 May. Prop Firm Match, PropFirmWise and PickAPropFirm all delisted the firm within days. We removed our affiliate link and do not recommend starting an evaluation here. Refunding a fee is not the same as paying what was owed.
