Blue Guardian rules
- Drawdown
- Futures accounts follow an end-of-day trailing drawdown; once you withdraw, the drawdown floor locks at the starting balance plus $100. Instant CFD accounts set a 3% daily loss and a 6% trailing max drawdown.
- Consistency requirement
- For Standard futures, the evaluation has no consistency rule, but funded accounts use a 40% rule. Direct futures applies 20% at first, 25% next, and 30% on later payouts.
- Trading on news
- You can trade news on Standard futures accounts and Direct ones. If you buy an Instant Standard CFD account after 13 November 2025, news trading isn't allowed on it.
