Yes there is. They can use this service:
Simulated Futures Trading Service

i am very well aware you offer this service but when i say there's no alternative, i'm speaking from the perspective of a customer who has to pick among a limited choice of offerings. whether or not you offer a simulated service doesn't matter when the major funding companies (tst, e2t, out) aren't offering it, and don't plan to anytime soon.

and you actually misunderstood me. i was referring to funded traders (traders who already passed combine/evaluation and are funded). funding companies set up funded trader with live accounts at their partnered prop firms, who use Rithmic risk management features. so at the very least, all trades have to be executed via Rithmic, which is fine.

since the problem is with the Rithmic datafeed, not Rithmic order routing, ideally we should be able to just purchase professional Denali or Sc datafeed and use it with Rithmic order routing. although this is technically possible, there are funding companies like Topsteptrader that force you to purchase the Rithmic professional datafeed directly from them. So even if we want to go with SC datafeed + Rithmic execution route, we cannot, unless we want to pay for the professional datafeed twice. This is what I meant by saying there's no alternative. This isn't the case with every single funding company however but TST is a major one.
