Blue Guardian rules explained

The rules that most often end evaluations, verified at the source.

What this means for you

On the 2 Step Standard, make 8% and then 4% with at least 3 profitable days, without losing 4% in a day or 8% in total; that floor never moves. Funded, you keep 85% (90% with an add-on), paid every 14 days. Bots (EAs) are allowed.

Built only from rules we verified at the source. Most people who buy a test don't pass (see why).

Profit target

Profit you need to pass.

8% + 4% (2 Step Standard) ✓ Verified Easy

What's this?

How much profit you must make to pass a test phase. On a $100k account a 10% target means reaching $110,000. Glossary →

Daily loss limit

Lose more than this in one day and you fail.

4% of initial balance ✓ Verified Standard

What's this?

The most you may lose in one trading day. With a 5% limit on $100k, dropping $5,000 in a single day fails the test, even if you're up overall. Glossary →

Max drawdown

Total loss floor. Break it once and the account ends.

8% static ✓ Verified Easy

What's this?

The total loss floor. Break it once and the account is gone. On $100k: STATIC 10% → floor stays $90,000 forever. END-OF-DAY trailing $3k → floor $97k; close a day at $102k → floor moves to $99k (intraday swings ignored). INTRADAY trailing $3k → an open trade up $2k lifts the floor to $99k immediately; if it falls back to break-even you're $1k from failing. Glossary →

Consistency rule

Caps how much profit can come from one day.

Not verified

What's this?

Limits how much of your total profit can come from one day. With 40%: if you've made $5,000, your best day can be at most $2,000. Stops 'one lucky day' passes. Glossary →

Minimum trading days

Fewest trading days before you can pass/get paid.

3 profitable days ✓ Verified Standard

What's this?

The fewest days you must place trades before you can pass or get paid, even if you hit the target on day one. Glossary →

Time limit

How long you have to pass.

Allowed in challenge; restricted ±5 min of high-impact news on funded ✓ Verified

What's this?
