Liquidity Provider

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

1-Phase and 2-Phase: after at least 15 traded days or every 30 calendar days; the Weekly Payout add-on reduces this to 7 traded days. Break: on demand with no minimum traded days after passing, paying the activation fee and meeting the 40% consistency rule. Instant: Withdrawal & Upgrade at 10% profit with no minimum days; earlier withdrawals follow the standard conditions.

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.

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).

$5,000 per transaction (crypto)

$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.

5% processing fee on crypto payouts. Only TRC20 USDT supported.

• CFT Platform and MetaTrader: 2 Phases and Instant use a static maximum loss; 1 Phase uses trailing drawdown.

Exact limits are shown in each challenge.

• 1 Step Nano and 2 Step Nano: up to 100%

Based on highest value between balance and equity

• CFT Platform and MetaTrader: 2 Phases, 1 Phase, Instant and Ascend use balance-based daily drawdown.
• Bybit: daily drawdown is calculated from equity using the account balance at 00:05 UTC. Break accounts do not have a separate daily-loss limit.

Exact limits are shown in each challenge.

Standard Final Stage allocation is capped at $300,000. Instant accounts are separate and can scale to $1,280,000. Break and Ascend accounts also have separate allocation limits.

Same-type funded accounts can be merged up to $400,000 ($200,000 cap on Instant). Cross-merging different types (e.g. 2 Step Standard with 2 Step Pro) is NOT allowed. Both accounts must be at break-even (no profit, no loss) at merge time. Beyond the merge cap, the Scaling Plan can take total allocation up to $2,000,000. Guardian X and Instant accounts are NOT eligible for scaling.

• Every trade had a stop-loss.
• No single trade lost more than 2%.
• You traded for at least 15 days.

Expert Advisors and automation are allowed when used for normal trading. EAs designed for high-frequency trading, tick scalping, arbitrage, reverse trading or exploitation are prohibited.

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

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.

Normal scalping is allowed. Tick scalping, high-frequency trading and latency exploitation are prohibited.

Simulated profit is capped at $10,000 per trading day and per trade. Trades closed in parts or opened together as one strategy may be treated as a single trade.

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.

Copy trading is allowed under the firm's general rules. Break evaluations may be copied only between the same trader's own Break accounts. Copy trading is prohibited in Break Final Stage and between different traders, third parties or coordinated accounts.

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.

Ascend

During the two minutes before and after high-impact news or market open, traders must not open or add new positions, nor increase or combine their maximum theoretical loss beyond 2% of the account's initial balance.

30 days

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.

Only Break Final Stage accounts apply a consistency rule: no single trading day may represent more than 40% of total profits. It is checked only when requesting a payout and does not breach the account.

Crypto futures trade 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and positions may remain open overnight and over weekends.

• 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).

High-frequency trading, tick scalping, latency or price-feed exploitation, arbitrage, gambling or all-in trading, abusive hedging, reverse trading across accounts and coordinated trading are prohibited. On Bybit, unauthorized deposits into the subaccount, modifying or disconnecting the API, spot trading, options and non-USDT pairs are also prohibited.
