Hantec Trader is the prop arm of the long-standing Hantec Group (founded 2023, Mauritius) on MT4 and MT5, with an 80% split and cheap entry from $17. Most plans use an equity-based (trailing-style) max loss; the 3-Step Endurance is balance-based/static — so pick that if you want a fixed line, and confirm the plan since it's less clearly documented. Code Aw6fnysr8 takes 20% off plus a free account on reaching payout (new users, one-time). Trust 82, 4.1★. Compare the plans below and confirm the live rules before buying.
