The only online alternatives that I am aware of, for retail traders to trade from their own homes, are both already mentioned on this website:

One Up Trader


Earn2Trade

or


As for their quality the early iterations of the first one, MES and FuturesProfile weren't positive but that doesn't necessarily mean One Up is bad.
Earn2Trade are new to the market but they did a webinar here a week or so back.

There also is Savius Trader, however there is not much information on their website or to be found online.
The interesting thing about Savius is that they will refund your initial fee if you pass the challenge.

If you from NYC and you want grow together with prof. traders you can look on SMB Futures.

Profit split: 50%

Thats a great way to get your foot in the door in their firm. they are very selective and have a very high work ethic from the books I read. Although it is quite expensive what they charge and the profit split isnt great. Just to be in their culture, its probably worth it.

Understanding yourself is just as important as understanding markets.

I noticed that none of these funding firms use the CQG feed, only Rythmic. As a result none of the firms support the MT5 platform. Anyone noticed otherwise?

TST platforms are mostly Rithmic but their recommended platform, TSTrader, uses CQG.
(They also have another non-Rithmic option with the T4 platform).

If their platform uses CQG, what's the problem supporting MT5? I haven't seen any funding firm supporting MT5. Anyone?

TST uses CQG only for their TSTrader (which is a white-label platform from Tradovate) and the broker is of course also Tradovate). The only broker I know, which allows MT5 is AMP and AMP isn't a TST broker.
