Blue Guardian Futures

During evaluation, the maximum positions listed above apply. On funded Reserve and Express accounts, the initial limits are lower:
▪️ 25K: 1 Mini / 10 Micros.
▪️ 50K: 2 Minis / 20 Micros.
▪️ 100K and 150K: 3 Minis / 30 Micros.

Limits may increase with end-of-day (EOD) balance under the firm's scaling tiers, and decrease again if the closing balance declines. Standard and Direct do not use this funded scaling schedule.

Evaluation & Simulated Funded Accounts
News trading is allowed on Standard, Reserve, Express and Direct accounts, subject to the risks of slippage and volatility and the prohibition on exploiting simulated execution.

Live Funded Accounts
News trading is not permitted after moving to a real Live Funded Account. Separate live-market conditions apply.

Blue Guardian Futures — Payout Policy
Applies to Standard, Reserve, Express, and Direct accounts.

Profit Split
▪️ 90% to the trader.

Minimum Payout, Fees & Processing
▪️ Standard, Reserve and Direct: $500 minimum via Crypto or Rise.
▪️ Express: starts at $250; the applicable minimum depends on the account size and the terms at purchase.
▪️ Crypto payout requests are capped at $1,000 per request; larger requests use Rise.
▪️ Payout processing fee: 3%.
▪️ Processing: up to 24 business hours after all conditions are met. Risk/compliance reviews, documentation, and weekends may affect timing.
▪️ If an eligible payout exceeds 24 business hours, the 24-hour guarantee may add 10 percentage points to the profit split for that payout, subject to its terms.

Drawdown After Payout
After an approved payout, the drawdown floor is locked at starting balance + $100:
25K → $25,100; 50K → $50,100; 100K → $100,100; 150K → $150,100.

Standard
▪️ Payouts become available 3 days after the first trade, provided funded-account requirements are met.
▪️ First payout / second and later caps: 25K → $1,500 / $2,000; 50K → $2,500 / $3,000; 100K → $3,000 / $3,500; 150K → $4,000 / $4,500.
▪️ Required buffer: 25K → $1,100; 50K → $2,100; 100K → $3,600; 150K → $5,100.

Reserve
▪️ Five profitable days per payout cycle (not necessarily consecutive). Minimum winning-day profit: 25K → $100; 50K → $150; 100K → $200; 150K → $250.
▪️ Up to 50% of eligible profits may be withdrawn, with per-request caps: 25K → $1,000; 50K → $2,000; 100K → $2,500; 150K → $3,000.
▪️ No buffer. The profitable-day counter resets after a payout.
▪️ For purchases from July 27, 2026, payouts 2–5 also require new net profit since the previous payout: $500 / $750 / $1,000 / $1,250 for 25K / 50K / 100K / 150K. Older accounts retain their original terms.

Express
▪️ Payouts may be requested once conditions are met, subject to daily limits: 25K → $600; 50K → $1,100; 100K → $1,500; 150K → $2,500.
▪️ Required buffer: 25K → $1,100; 50K → $2,100; 100K → $2,600; 150K → $3,600.
▪️ For accounts purchased from September 2, 2026, starting with the second payout, new profits of at least 50% of the previous payout amount must be earned before the next request.

Direct
▪️ Payouts require the applicable payout-cycle profit target and consistency rule; no buffer applies.
▪️ Consistency: 20% for the first payout, 25% for the second, and 30% from the third onward.
▪️ Payouts 1–3 / payout 4 onward: 25K → $1,000 / $1,000; 50K → $2,000 / $2,500; 100K → $2,500 / $3,000; 150K → $3,000 / $3,500.
▪️ First-payout profit targets: 25K → $1,500; 50K → $3,000; 100K → $6,000; 150K → $9,000.
▪️ Subsequent-cycle profit targets: 25K → $1,000; 50K → $2,000; 100K → $3,500; 150K → $4,500.

EOD Trailing Drawdown
Standard, Reserve, Express and Direct use drawdown based on the highest end-of-day (EOD) closing balance, rather than intraday unrealized gains.
During evaluation, the drawdown floor continues trailing throughout the evaluation and does not lock at the initial balance.
In funded accounts, the floor stops trailing when it reaches the starting balance + $100, where it remains locked.
The required closing balance depends on account size and drawdown allowance. For example, a 50K account with $2,000 trailing drawdown locks after a $52,100 closing balance, leaving a $50,100 floor.
After an approved payout, the floor is locked at starting balance + $100 under the payout policy.

Scalping and Microscalping
Scalping is allowed. However, profits generated by trades lasting less than 10 seconds must account for less than 50% of total profits.
This applies during both evaluation and funded stages. Excessive reliance on very short trades may result in profit adjustments, payout review, or other account action.

Evaluation Reset
A breached evaluation may be restarted for a fee that depends on program and account size; there is no universal 30% reset fee.
▪️ Standard: 25K $104; 50K $141; 100K $223; 150K $286.
▪️ Express: 25K $72; 50K $121; 100K $191; 150K $261.
▪️ Reserve: reset fees vary with the chosen challenge option, account size and amount originally paid.

Funded Reactivation
Reactivation of a breached funded account may be available only before the first payout, up to two times per account, within 30 calendar days of breach, subject to program terms and fees.

How Consistency Applies
▪️ Standard: 40% on the funded account, not during evaluation.
▪️ Reserve: 50% during evaluation, with an optional 40% version selected at purchase for a lower price. The 50% rule has a 1% tolerance. No funded consistency rule.
▪️ Express: 40% during evaluation (Express 25K also offers a 50% selection at purchase); no funded consistency rule.
▪️ Direct: 20% for payout one, 25% for payout two, and 30% from payout three onward.
Consistency is calculated as the best profitable day divided by total profits in the relevant cycle. Exceeding the ratio does not automatically breach the account but prevents passing or payout until the ratio is satisfied.

Overnight and weekend holding are not allowed. Open positions are closed automatically before the end of the trading session under the company's schedule, and traders should not leave positions until forced closure.

Multiple Accounts and Fees
Traders may hold multiple accounts under Blue Guardian Futures policies. The former general three-funded-account limit does not apply across every program.
Account purchases are paid with a one-time fee; there is no recurring monthly evaluation subscription or additional funded-account activation fee after passing.

Maximum of five active funded accounts
▪️ A trader may operate up to five active funded accounts at the same time.
▪️ Any number of evaluations may be purchased, but passing an additional evaluation or purchasing a Direct account does not increase the five-active-account limit.
▪️ Additional funded accounts remain inactive until a place becomes available because an existing active funded account is closed, breached or otherwise leaves the active limit.

Prohibited
• Fully automated bots and systems.
• AI that trades automatically.
• Continuous 24/7 automation.
• Automated high-frequency scalping, especially systems exceeding 200 trades per day.

Allowed
Semi-automated trading is allowed only when the trader actively monitors positions and manually intervenes in management and execution.

Blue Guardian Futures prohibits trading within 2% of CME price limits to reduce exposure to violent volatility, market halts, and severe slippage.
A price limit is the maximum permitted movement of a futures contract during a session. Reaching it may cause a temporary trading halt or market suspension under CME rules.
---
Price-limit levels depend on the prior day's close, the contract, and whether the session is overnight or regular. They are updated daily at 1:05 a.m. Baghdad / Mecca time.
Covered products include ES, MES, NQ, MNQ, RTY, YM, and others. Overnight limits on some indices were increased from 5% to 7%.
---
Monitor % Net Change and CME Price Limits, and avoid trading in the final 2% zone. Understanding contract limits is part of professional futures risk management.

Evaluation Stage
At least one trade must be executed every 30 calendar days.

Funded Stage
▪️ Accounts promoted before October 10, 2026: at least one trade every 7 calendar days.
▪️ Accounts promoted on or after October 10, 2026: at least one trade every 10 calendar days.
Exceeding the applicable period constitutes an inactivity-rule breach.

Blue Guardian Futures requires KYC and AML verification for funded payouts and affiliate-commission withdrawals.
Verification is completed once per user, and only one verified account is allowed per person.
---
Proof of Identity may be a passport, national ID, or driving licence, together with a matching selfie or live video.
Proof of Address must usually be dated within the last three months and may include a bank statement, utility bill, lease, card statement, or government letter.
AML checks cover global sanctions lists, politically exposed persons (PEP), and adverse media.
Some countries are restricted because of sanctions, fraud risk, or partner limitations.
Verification is performed by an external provider, and the company cannot alter acceptance or rejection decisions.

Prohibited Strategies — Blue Guardian Futures
Blue Guardian Futures prohibits practices that exploit differences between its simulated trading environment and realistic execution.

Automated Trading
Fully automated bots, AI trading on its own, continuous 24/7 automation and high-frequency automated scalping (particularly above 200 trades per day) are prohibited. Semi-automated tools require active monitoring and manual control by the trader.

Prohibited Conduct
▪️ Placing multiple orders at the same price to manipulate simulated fills.
▪️ Exploiting thin markets, price gaps or the absence of realistic slippage.
▪️ Violating CME Group trading rules.
▪️ Copying other traders’ positions or third-party signals, coordinating with other traders, or using opposing positions to hedge improperly across accounts.

Permitted Personal Copy Trading
Trade copying between accounts personally owned and fully controlled by the same trader is allowed, both within Blue Guardian Futures and at other prop firms. Trade copiers may be used for this purpose, but copying third-party trades or signals and third-party account management are not allowed.

Scalping & Microscalping
Scalping is allowed. Profits from trades lasting less than 10 seconds must remain below 50% of total profits during evaluation and funded stages. Excessive microscalping may lead to profit removal, payout review, or other account action.

Martingale
Martingale is allowed only within contract limits, margin requirements and the account’s risk-management rules.

Moving to a Live Funded Account
A real Live Funded Account is offered only by invitation following a risk-team assessment; no fixed number of payouts guarantees promotion.
The live account executes real CME futures trades, and eligible funded accounts may be consolidated under firm policy.
Live accounts use an end-of-day (EOD) drawdown. They have no consistency rule or daily loss limit, and allow daily payouts without a payout cap.

Important Live Restrictions
▪️ News trading is not allowed on Live accounts.
▪️ Hedging between positions is prohibited on Live accounts.
▪️ Market-data costs and other applicable trading fees may be charged.
Contract limits and the consolidated drawdown depend on the funded accounts eligible for promotion and the firm’s live-account rules.
