Blue Guardian has launched the Reserve Plan, a one‑phase Futures evaluation that offers funded accounts tied to a 6% profit target and an end‑of‑day (EOD) trailing drawdown model, the company’s documentation shows. The plan is designed to give traders flexible daily risk management while retaining an overall EOD drawdown requirement.
Key terms
- Profit target: 6% for each Reserve account size (equivalent to $1,500 on $25K, $3,000 on $50K, $6,000 on $100K, and $9,000 on $150K).
- Account sizes: $25,000, $50,000, $100,000, and $150,000.
- EOD trailing drawdown: Reserve uses an end‑of‑day trailing drawdown that locks once it reaches the starting‑balance threshold; current maximum EOD drawdowns are $1,000 ($25K), $2,000 ($50K), $3,000 ($100K), and $4,500 ($150K).
- No default daily loss limit: By default there is no daily loss limit; an optional Daily Loss Limit add‑on can be selected at purchase.
- Profit split: Funded Reserve traders receive a 90% profit split (Blue Guardian states a permanent 90/10 split for current Futures plans).
Payouts, winning‑day and updated eligibility
Traders must complete at least five winning days before becoming eligible for a payout; the minimum profit that counts as a winning day varies by account size. Payouts are processed within 24 business hours and can be withdrawn via Rise (minimum $500) or Crypto (minimum $100).
Blue Guardian updated payout eligibility rules such that Reserve accounts purchased on or after July 27, 2026 require a minimum net profit since the previous approved payout for payouts 2–5. Accounts purchased before that date retain their original payout rules.
Position limits, scaling and trading rules
- Position limits and scaling: During the evaluation the maximum position limits are listed as 12 Minis / 120 Micros. Funded starting limits are lower (for example, a $100K funded account starts at 3 Minis / 30 Micros) and scale with the account’s end‑of‑day balance.
- Trading rules: News trading is permitted, stop losses are not mandatory, micro‑scalping is restricted (less than 50% of total profits may come from trades held under 10 seconds), and copy trading is allowed only between accounts legally owned by the same trader.
- Consistency options: At checkout buyers may choose a 40% or 50% consistency option for the challenge (labels: 40% = 3 Day Pass; 50% = 2 Day Pass). There is no funded consistency requirement after a trader moves to a funded Reserve account.
Post‑payout mechanics
After an approved payout the drawdown floor locks at the relevant starting balance plus $100 (for example, $50,100 for a $50K account) and the winning‑day counter resets. Funded accounts continue under the applicable funded rules and can increase contract limits as the end‑of‑day balance grows.
What this means for traders
Reserve is positioned for traders who prefer managing daily risk without a default daily loss cap while operating under an overall EOD trailing drawdown. Key considerations for prospective buyers include the 6% profit target and its dollar equivalents by size, the EOD drawdown thresholds, the optional daily loss limit add‑on, the five winning‑day requirement before payouts, the updated post‑July‑27,‑2026 payout eligibility for subsequent withdrawals, the 90% funded profit split, and the plan’s funded scaling and position limits.
Practical items to confirm before purchasing
- Which consistency option (40% or 50%) is selected at checkout, since it applies to the challenge stage.
- Whether the optional Daily Loss Limit add‑on is desired.
- How funded contract limits will scale with end‑of‑day balances.
- Payout minimums and preferred withdrawal method (Rise or Crypto).
Traders should review Blue Guardian’s live checkout and official Reserve rules for any further changes or clarifications before buying a challenge.
