Futures Prop Firm Rule Radar

Every night Rule Radar archives the help center of every futures prop firm on the price list and shows exactly what changed: which page, which line, dated, before and after. Payout terms, consistency rules, drawdown math, activation fees: firms rewrite these without an announcement, and this is where you catch it. Updated pages open to the exact wording that changed, every article keeps a full version history you can compare, and a plain-English line on each row says what happened. Nothing here is written by the firms. It is their own help center, read every day and kept. – Jmu (@jmutrades)

The reset fee is calculated at 10% less of the base-discounted amount paid for the account.

Reserve Funded Account Reactivation
Section: Reserve Funded Account Reactivation
− Traders on the Reserve model may be eligible to reactivate a breached funded account without repeating the evaluation process. This allows you to return directly to funded status by paying a reactivation fee.
− How it works:
− - Available only if the account is breached before the first payout.
− - Once a payout has been received, the account is no longer eligible for reactivation.
− - Traders can reactivate the same account up to 2 times. After that, a new evaluation must be completed.
− - The reactivation option remains available for 30 calendar days from the date of breach.
− - Once the fee is paid, the account will be reactivated at the start of the next trading session.
− Please refer to the table below for the applicable reactivation fees by account size.

+ - Maximum of two reactivations: Each eligible account can be reactivated up to two times. After this, a new evaluation must be completed.
+ - 30-day window: Reactivation must be purchased within 30 calendar days of the account’s breach.

Note: Direct Accounts purchased before July 21, 2026 will continue under the previous rules with no Daily Loss Limit. For $50K Direct Accounts purchased between July 21–26, 2026, the Daily Loss Limit remains $1,500.
Maximum Overall Drawdown (EOD)
Section: Maximum Overall Drawdown (EOD)
− The Maximum Drawdown on Direct Accounts varies depending on the account size and follows a trailing EOD until your account exceeds the Initial Trail Balance. During this period, the maximum drawdown remains STATIC (No Trailing) at the starting balance + $100.
− Once your account exceeds the Initial trail Balance, or after the first payout has been requested, the maximum drawdown becomes static and will no longer trail. This provides traders with clear and consistent risk parameters for the remainder of the account's lifetime.
− Please note: The updated drawdown rules apply to accounts purchased on or after July 27, 2026. Accounts purchased before July 27 will retain the previous drawdown rules.
+ Direct Accounts use an End-of-Day (EOD) trailing drawdown, with the drawdown allowance determined by your account size.
+ Your maximum loss limit moves up when you achieve a new highest end-of-day closing balance. It does not trail unrealized profits during the trading session or move back down after a losing day.
+ The maximum loss limit stops trailing once it reaches your starting balance plus $100. After this, the limit remains fixed, even as your account balance continues to grow.

Maximum Overall Drawdown (EOD)
Section: Maximum Overall Drawdown (EOD)
− The Maximum Trailing Drawdown on Express Accounts varies depending on the account size and follows an End-of-Day (EOD) trailing model during both the Evaluation and Funded stages.
− This means the trailing drawdown only adjusts based on your closed balance at the end of each trading day, allowing traders to better plan their positions and build consistent risk management habits.
− Once your trailing drawdown reaches your starting balance, the drawdown will lock and no longer trail.
− This locked level becomes your permanent maximum loss limit for the account.
− Examples:
− - $25,000 Account: Drawdown locks at $26,100
− - $50,000 Account: Drawdown locks at $52,100

− This means the trailing drawdown only adjusts based on your closed balance at the end of each trading day, allowing traders to better plan their positions and build consistent risk management habits.
− Once your trailing drawdown reaches your starting balance, the drawdown will lock and no longer trail.
− This locked level becomes your permanent maximum loss limit for the account.
− Examples:
− - $25,000 Account: Drawdown locks at $26,600
− - $50,000 Account: Drawdown locks at $52,100
− - $100,000 Account: Drawdown locks at $103,600
− - $150,000 Account: Drawdown locks at $156,100
+ Maximum Trailing Drawdown
+ Reserve Accounts use an End-of-Day (EOD) trailing drawdown, with the drawdown allowance determined by your account size.
+ Your maximum loss limit moves up when you achieve a new highest end-of-day closing balance. It does not trail unrealized profits during the trading session or move back down after a losing day.
+ The maximum loss limit stops trailing once it reaches your starting balance plus $100. After this, the limit remains fixed, even as your account balance continues to grow.

− Yes. We now offer an optional Daily Loss Limit add-on for traders who prefer the Reserve Account but would like the additional protection of a daily loss limit. This add-on can be selected during purchase for those who want an extra layer of risk management while trading, it act as soft breach.
- $25,000 Account: $600
- $50,000 Account: $1,200
- $100,000 Account: $1,700
- $150,000 Account: $3,000
Maximum Overall Drawdown (EOD)
The Maximum Trailing Drawdown on Reserve Accounts varies depending on the account size and follows an End-of-Day (EOD) trailing model during both the Evaluation and Funded stages.
Example
If your highest-profit trading day is $2,000, your total profits must exceed $4,000 before you satisfy the 50% consistency requirement.
Section: Optional 40% Consistency Add-On
Consistency Cushion
Section: Consistency Cushion
− To give traders a little more flexibility, the Reserve Account includes a 1% Consistency Cushion. This means your largest profitable trading day can make up up to 51% of your total profits, instead of being strictly limited to 50%. The cushion is there to help traders who narrowly exceed the consistency limit by a small amount, so they don’t have to take an extra trading day just because they were slightly over.
While this flexibility may allow some traders to complete the evaluation in as little as two trading days, we always recommend focusing on consistent trading rather than trying to pass as quickly as possible.
Example
After
Once the target is reached, the account will undergo a final review. After successful verification, the trader will move forward as a Funded Trader.
Daily Loss Limit
Section: Daily Loss Limit
+ Reserve Accounts include a Daily Loss Limit by default. Traders who prefer to trade without this restriction can select the “No Daily Loss Limit” add-on when purchasing their account. The Daily Loss Limit can be removed by selecting the optional add-on during checkout.
+ If the add-on is selected, the account will not have a Daily Loss Limit. However, traders must continue to manage their risk carefully and remain within the account’s overall trailing drawdown limit.
+ The Default Daily Loss Limits are:
- $25,000 Account: $600
- $50,000 Account: $1,200
- $100,000 Account: $1,700
- $150,000 Account: $3,000
+ Without the add-on, exceeding the applicable Daily Loss Limit will result in a soft breach.

+ Optional 40% Consistency Add-On
+ Traders who prefer a lower-priced Reserve evaluation can select the optional “40% Consistency” add-on during checkout.
+ When this add-on is selected, the standard 50% Consistency Rule is replaced by a 40% Consistency Rule. This means your highest-profit trading day cannot account for more than 40% of your total profits.
+ For example, if your highest-profit day is $2,000, your total profits must reach at least $5,000 to satisfy the 40% requirement.
+ The Consistency Rule applies only during the Challenge phase. Funded Reserve Accounts do not have a Consistency Rule.

− Please note:
− Rewards are processed on business days only and the 24 Hours Reward Guarantee timer is paused during weekends.
− During weekends and bank holidays, processing times may be slightly extended due to limited banking operations and reduced staff availability.
− If there are any issues with your payout, our risk team will contact you via email.
− Note:
− Delays caused by compliance checks, risk reviews, or a lack of timely response on your part (including onboarding with Rise) do not qualify for the 10% profit split upgrade, as these situations fall outside our control. Thank you for your understanding and continued trust in Blue Guardian.

Overview of Express Account Rules
The Blue Guardian Futures Express Challenge is designed for traders who prefer a fast-paced trading model with daily payout opportunities, giving greater flexibility and quicker access to profits.
Once the target is reached, the account will undergo a final review. After successful verification, the trader will move forward as a Funded Trader.
Daily Loss Limit
Section: Daily Loss Limit
− For Express Accounts, the maximum daily loss limit is 2% of the initial balance across all account sizes.If your balance or equity falls below the daily loss threshold, the system will automatically close all open trades and temporarily disable the account.
− Please note that breaching the daily drawdown is considered a soft breach, not a hard breach. The account will be automatically reinstated on the next trading day, allowing you to continue trading.
+ Express Accounts include a fixed Daily Loss Limit based on the account size.
+

$25KNo Daily Loss Limit$500
$50K$1,000$1,000
$100K$1,250$1,250
$150K$1,750$1,750
+ Please note: The $25K Express Challenge does not have a Daily Loss Limit. The $500 Daily Loss Limit only applies to the $25K Funded Account.
+ If your balance or equity falls below the applicable Daily Loss Limit, all open positions will be automatically closed and your account will be temporarily disabled for the remainder of the trading day. Exceeding the Daily Loss Limit is considered a soft breach, not a hard breach. Your account will be automatically reinstated at the start of the next trading day, allowing you to continue trading.
+ Note: This Daily Loss Limit update applies only to Express Accounts purchased on or after September 2nd.
+ Express Accounts purchased before September 2nd will remain under the Daily Loss Limit that was applicable at the time of purchase.
Maximum Overall Drawdown (EOD)
The Maximum Trailing Drawdown on Express Accounts varies depending on the account size and follows an End-of-Day (EOD) trailing model during both the Evaluation and Funded stages.
This locked level becomes your permanent maximum loss limit for the account.
Examples:
Section: Maximum Overall Drawdown (EOD)
+ - $25,000 Account: Drawdown locks at $26,100
- $50,000 Account: Drawdown locks at $52,100
− - $100,000 Account: Drawdown locks at $103,600
− - $150,000 Account: Drawdown locks at $156,100
+ - $100,000 Account: Drawdown locks at $102,600
+ - $150,000 Account: Drawdown locks at $153,600
+ Note: This Max Loss Limit update applies only to Express Accounts purchased on or after September 2nd.
+ Express Accounts purchased before September 2nd will remain under the Daily Loss Limit that was applicable at the time of purchase.
Is there a monthly fee or activation fee?
No. Blue Guardian Futures does not require any monthly subscription fees or activation fees before receiving your funded account.
After any payout/withdrawal, the drawdown floor will locked at your starting balance + $100. This ensures the account remains active and prevents traders from withdrawing down to the exact breach level.
Examples:
Section: Example
+ - $25,000 Account: Drawdown locks at $25,100
- $50,000 Account: Drawdown locks at $50,100
- $100,000 Account: Drawdown locks at $100,100
This structure gives traders quicker access to profits, consistent cash flow, and clear daily payout limits while continuing to scale their accounts steadily.
