What the rules mean in practice
- To pass, grow the $10K account by $900 (9%) without breaking a loss limit.
- On any single day you can lose up to $400 (4%). Check Blue Guardian's rules for whether that is measured from the day's starting balance or equity, because open trades count.
- The account fails if you lose $600 (6%). This is balance trailing drawdown: the loss limit rises with your closed balance as you make profit, so it follows your gains.
- Consistency rule: None
- At a 85% split, you need about 0.78% return on the funded account to earn back the $66 fee.
- Payouts: every 14 days (every 7 days with a paid add-on)
- The 6% maximum loss trails the highest closed balance and stops at the starting balance after a 6% gain, with a 1% withdrawal buffer from then on.
- Accounts bought before 20 August had a 10% profit target.
- On the funded account, Guardian Shield closes all positions at a 2% floating loss. The first trigger cuts the split to 50% and the second ends the account.
- News trading is allowed in the evaluation but restricted on the funded account.
- The pricing page shows 1:100 leverage for the evaluation, while the platform rules article lists 1:50 for forex on 1-step evaluations.
