Hantec Trader vs Sure Leverage Funding 2026 — Full Comparison: Rules, Payouts & Pass Probability

Sure Leverage Funding counters with a 10% max drawdown, 16–24 hour payouts, and a $10 Buy Now Pay Later entry. The tradeoff is a T&C that includes a "not in good faith" clause and an explicit right to terminate without cause.
