What the rules mean in practice

  • To pass, grow the $200K account by $20,000 (10%) without breaking a loss limit.
  • On any single day you can lose up to $8,000 (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 $12,000 (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: Best day must be under 50% of total profit, in both the evaluation and the funded account
  • At a 85% split, you need about 0.34% return on the funded account to earn back the $585 fee.
  • 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.
  • Guardian Shield does not apply to Nano accounts.
  • A paid add-on at checkout raises the profit split to 100%.
