Card, Crypto, ApplePay, GooglePay
Payout Frequency

Daily, Weekly or Bi-Weekly, chosen at purchase. First cycle starts at funded activation; later cycles start at the last approved payout. Weekly requires 5 trading days per cycle; Bi-Weekly, 10, adjusted for market holidays. Daily has no fixed minimum but retains consistency. Presets: Standard and Default, Daily; Budget and Easy, Bi-Weekly; Power, Weekly.

  • 1 Step Nano: up to weekly
  • 2 Step Nano: bi-weekly
  • Other products: 14 days
Payout Guarantee

No unconditional 24-hour receipt guarantee. The homepage advertises 24 hours; help states average review of 24-48 hours and the agreement targets 1-3 business days, plus 1-5 business days for Rise. No weekend or holiday processing. Compliance reviews may take 30 days; prohibited-practice investigations may last until resolved.

Payouts processed within 24 business hours (Mon 9 AM – Fri 5 PM Dubai time). If they miss this window you automatically receive a 100% profit split on that payout (no Blue Guardian cut). Delays caused by compliance checks, risk reviews or pending KYC do not qualify.

Crypto Weekend Trading
Yes

Crypto CFDs trade over weekends. Keeping positions open requires the applicable holding add-ons.

No data
Maximum Withdrawal

Gross per-request cap: 2% of size on payouts 1 and 2; 2.5% on 3 and 4; 4% on 5. The profit split applies and a 3% buffer must remain. Excess stays in the balance. From 5 total payouts across all accounts, Doji chooses between a Live invitation and ending funded access with a new evaluation.

2 Step Nano: 2% of the initial balance per payout ($500 on $25K, $1,000 on $50K, $2,000 on $100K and $4,000 on $200K).

Minimum Withdrawal

1-Step: 2% of initial account size. 2-Step: 1%. Verified identity and payment details in your own name. Verified Rise account; users restricted by Rise receive crypto through Confirmo without a Rise account.

$100 in crypto, $500 via Rise (bank transfer). On 1 Step Standard and Instant accounts, once you reach 6% profit and the trailing drawdown locks at breakeven, a 1% buffer must remain in the account.

Max Drawdown

Touching the maximum floor permanently closes the account and prevents further payouts. Static references the starting balance; trailing follows peak equity; EOD measures session close. The configurator starts both models on Intraday, while the Rulebook describes Static for 1-Step and trailing for 2-Step. The purchased Dashboard configuration prevails.

  • Instant, Guardian X, 1 Step Standard, 1 Step Nano, 2 Step Pro, Crypto: Trailing
  • 1 Step Pro, 2 Step Standard, 2 Step Classic, 2 Step Nano, 3 Step: Static
Profit Split

Locked at purchase and applied to realised net profit. Above 80% requires Doji Coins under the Rulebook. Each configuration’s percentage is listed in its challenges.

  • Existing 1, 2 and 3 Step programs: 85%
  • 1 Step Nano and 2 Step Nano: up to 100%
  • Instant: 80%
  • Instant Starter: 90%
  • With add-on: 90%
Daily Drawdown

Touching the daily limit closes positions and pauses trading without ending the account. EOD is checked at session close and blocks the following session; Intraday monitors floating equity. Static may lift its floor after a breach. The Rulebook and agreement use 17:00 New York; help says fixed 21:00 UTC and the blog says 00:00 UTC. Confirm timing and Static reactivation in the Dashboard.

Expert Advisor (EA)
Limited

EAs and algorithms are allowed within the rules. Third-party signal services must be disclosed; the Terms require written approval for tools not authorised by programme rules. Competitions are manual-only.

Yes
VPN
Limited

The Terms prohibit VPN or proxy use to conceal residence or access from restricted jurisdictions; they do not publish a general VPN ban.

Yes
Hedging
Limited

Opposite trades across Doji accounts and between funded and a personal broker to guarantee profits or neutralise risk are prohibited. Brackets and offsetting trades to farm coins are also prohibited.

Limited

Hedging is allowed within a single account. Hedging across multiple accounts (yours or others') is NOT allowed.

Requires Stop Loss
Limited

The Rulebook and help say it is not mandatory. The funded agreement requires a stop-loss unless position sizing demonstrably manages risk; Doji may request justification.

No
Scalping
Limited

Positions opened and closed in under 5 seconds and latency-based scalping are prohibited.

Limited

Minimum holding time of 2 minutes. Trades closed in under 2 minutes are flagged as tick scalping and count as a rule violation, whether closed manually or by automated systems. Average trade duration should stay above 1–2 minutes. Scalping itself is allowed as long as you stay above the 2-minute floor.

Martingale
Limited

Martingale, grid and averaging down are prohibited when used to circumvent drawdown rules or create exponential exposure. First detection: explanation requested by email; repetition: closure.

Yes
Maximum Risk Limit
Limited

Size is limited by instrument margin and leverage. Overleveraging, outsized directional bets and size changes to exploit rules are prohibited; no universal fixed per-trade risk percentage is published.

No
Copy Trading
Limited

Only between your own accounts in the same direction, including a copier. Copying between users, group coordination and cross-account hedging are prohibited. Third-party signals must be disclosed.

Limited

Manual copy trading is allowed ONLY between accounts legally owned by the same person (e.g. between your own Evaluation and Funded accounts, or between your Blue Guardian account and external accounts in your name). NOT allowed:

  • Copying trades from other traders' accounts.
  • Third-party copiers that involve accounts not legally yours.
  • Having a third party manage your trades.

Instant Funding users may also use third-party copiers, provided all accounts belong to the same user.

News Trading
Limited

Ordinary news trading is allowed on evaluation and funded accounts. Systematic spike exploitation by entering within 60 seconds before a release and closing immediately after is prohibited, as are brackets and concentrated bets.

Limited

News trading is allowed on Challenge, Guardian X and Instant Starter.

It is NOT allowed on Instant Standard and Funded accounts. On those, do not open or close trades within 5 minutes before or 5 minutes after a red folder (high-impact) release. Profits made during that window or significantly influenced by the news will be removed, even without an account violation. Same 5-minute window applies around FOMC speeches, statements and news events on Funded accounts.

Note: Instant Standard accounts purchased after November 13, 2025 cannot do news trading at all.

Inactivity Rule

Termination after 30 calendar days without placing, modifying or closing an order or position. Logging in or holding an untouched position does not restart the count.

30 days

Consistency Rule
Yes

Funded only; compares the best net realised day with cumulative profit since activation, without payout resets. It blocks eligibility until met, without closing the account by itself. Configurable 10-50%, initially 30%. Daily caps at 30%; the Rulebook leaves Weekly uncapped, although the blog contradicts this. Presets: Standard/Default and Budget 30%; Power 20%; Easy 40%.

Yes

Consistency rule applies to: 1 Step Nano evaluation and funded (50%), 2 Step Nano funded (50%), 2 Step Pro funded (25%), Guardian X and Instant Standard funded (20%), Instant Starter funded (15%), $300K and $400K Instant funded (15%).

Does NOT apply to: 2 Step Nano evaluation, 1 Step Standard, 1 Step Pro, 2 Step Standard, 2 Step Classic, 3 Step funded accounts, nor to any other challenge phase.

Calculation: a single trading day cannot equal or exceed the threshold of total profits in the payout cycle. If exceeded, the payout button is blocked until the highest day drops below the threshold. Violating it does NOT terminate the account.

Hold Weekend
Limited

Overnight and weekend holding must be purchased as separate add-ons and carry into funded. Without the relevant add-on, automatic closure at the cut-off is not itself a breach.

Yes
Prohibited Strategies

Latency/price arbitrage; HFT under 5 s; data/error exploitation; account sharing/selling; false identity; copying between users; cross-account hedging or coordination; deliberate evaluation cycling; payout/drawdown exploitation; wash trading or Doji Coins farming; one-sided betting and brackets; cancellation abuse; insider dealing, manipulation and pump-and-dump. Reviews may end accounts, forfeit profits and affect pending payouts or Wallet balances.

  • Platform or data freezing exploits (using a Demo Server error).
  • Use of delayed data feed or trading on delayed charts.
  • Tick scalping (trades closed under 2 minutes), high-frequency trading, arbitrage bots.
  • Reverse arbitrage, latency arbitrage, hedge arbitrage and any emulators.
  • Hedging between accounts (within one account is fine).
  • Password changes (the password sent by email is the only one accepted).
  • Gambling: any trading where margin usage exceeds 80% on running trades.
  • Shared devices, VPS or accounts: each trader must use only their personal device. Shared usage across accounts results in payout disqualification, suspension or termination.
  • Bypassing copy-trading or signal-trading rules using VPN/VPS.
  • Account inactivity: at least 1 trade every 30 days (otherwise breach).
