Rule-Change Radar
Topstep rule changes
Prop firms change their rules quietly — a trailing drawdown becomes end-of-day, a consistency cap moves, a daily loss limit appears — and they don't email you. We catch it, date it, and cite the firm's own page. TradersGuild tracks these against your live account, so you hear it from us first.
