Can a US resident buy this?
Yes.
We tested it. US VPN. The client-area checkout auto-set country=US and offered Futures Prime $50K/$100K/$150K with platforms TTP (own), NinjaTrader, Tradovate, ATAS, Quantower, DeepCharts and R|Trader Pro. The Level 1 CME data is included; Level 2 and EUREX are paid add-ons. The country picker is a custom combobox that I did not open, and I saw no state list before the personal-information step.
“Mainly due to payment complications, The Trading Pit is unable provide any type of service to clients with residency from the following countries: Burundi, Cuba, Iran, North Korea, South Sudan, Sudan” — their own words

Read before you buy
The fine print, in plain English
Taken from their own pages. These are the rules most likely to cost you money.
No CFDs/forex for US residents
TTP's flagship CFD challenges are not offered in the USA; US buyers can only buy Futures or Stocks challenges.
30-day time limit on Futures Prime
The futures challenge must be passed within 30 days unless you pay to extend.
Futures payouts capped at 50% of profit per request
Each reward is limited to 50% of realized profit and a hard cap ($2,500 on 50K), after 5 profitable days of $150+.
Market data beyond Level 1 is extra and monthly
Level 2 CME ($16–$41) and EUREX (€25) data are monthly add-ons that expire at month end.

Sold by The Trading Pit Challenge GmbH (Liechtenstein). This is a paid evaluation on a simulated account, not a regulated product. “Accepts US residents” means the firm sells to Americans. It does not mean a US regulator oversees it. Rules and prices change, so check the firm’s current terms before you buy. Found something out of date? Tell us and we’ll re-check it.
