Who Alpha Capital Group fits
Forex traders who want a static loss floor and can keep risk per position small. Expert advisors are limited to trade-management tools on MT5 and need approval first. Trustpilot currently withholds its rating.
Alpha Capital Group is a UK-registered forex prop firm and a sister firm of Alpha Futures in the same group. Its 50K Alpha Pro 8% costs $297 with a static 8% max loss, Alpha One costs $277, and Alpha Direct $257. Since July 2026, a 50K funded account closes if you risk more than 2% on one asset, and its terms say all sales are final.

Trustpilot currently shows no rating for Alpha Capital Group: it says the rating is unavailable because of a breach of its guidelines and that it removed fake reviews (seen October 19, 2026).
Prices are the ones Alpha Capital's order form shows first for each 50K plan; they can change with the payout option you choose.
Your loss limit sits at a fixed level below the starting balance and never moves. Profits widen your cushion instead of tightening it.
