📋 Additional Rules
No consistency rule applies once funded — that only applies during the evaluation. Your balance must stay above $26,100 (starting balance + $1,100 buffer) before a payout request goes through. Payouts are instant and available daily, capped at $600 a day, with a $250 minimum payout to request one at all. From your 2nd payout onward you need new profit equal to at least 50% of your last payout before requesting the next. Drawdown locks for good at $25,100 (starting balance + $100) once you take your first payout.
Things to Remember
- The $25K challenge has no Daily Loss Limit — but the funded account does ($500), so don’t get used to unlimited daily risk before you pass.
- Drawdown trails your balance on an end-of-day basis until it hits your starting balance, then it locks at $26,100 for good — a fast start to the challenge buys you real room later.
- From your second payout onward, you need new profit equal to at least 50% of your last payout before you can request another one.
- Stacking accounts drops the price fast: 30% off for two, up to 50% off for five — on top of the 25% BG25 code.
- Breach before your first payout and reactivation costs $180, capped at two tries within 30 days. After that, or after any payout, you’re back to a fresh evaluation.
FAQ
- Why doesn’t the challenge have a Daily Loss Limit?
- Blue Guardian only applies the $500 DLL once you’re funded on the 25K plan. During the challenge, your $1,000 max drawdown is the only thing that can end your account.
- What happens if I breach the evaluation?
- You can reset for $72 and run the challenge again under the same rules.
- Do I need a minimum number of trading days to pass?
- No minimum is listed — hit the $1,500 target while meeting the consistency rule and you pass, however long that takes.
- Is news trading allowed?
- Yes, on both the challenge and funded account. Just expect slippage and wider spreads during high-impact releases.
