Firm Intel & Review
Blue Guardian Futures Technical Infrastructure
Blue Guardian Futures, based in the United Arab Emirates and established in November 2024, is a futures proprietary trading firm offering three program types: Instant Funding, Standard 1-Step Evaluation, and Guardian 1-Step Evaluation. All three programs are available in three account sizes — $50,000, $100,000, and $150,000 — giving traders a direct comparison between evaluation and instant-access funding paths. The firm is a separate futures-focused brand within the Blue Guardian ecosystem.
The Instant Funding program provides immediate funded access at three price points: $50,000 at $187.50 (original $625.00), $100,000 at $247.50 (original $825.00), and $150,000 at $298.50 (original $995.00). The Standard 1-Step Evaluation is priced lower: $50K at $48.00 (original $160.00), $100K at $72.00 (original $240.00), and $150K at $102.00 (original $340.00). The Guardian 1-Step is the most affordable evaluation track: $50K at $35.70 (original $119.00), $100K at $50.70 (original $169.00), and $150K at $80.70 (original $269.00). Payments are accepted via Credit/Debit Card and Crypto.
Five platforms are supported: NinjaTrader, TradingView, Tradovate, Volbook, and Volsys. All trading is restricted to futures instruments. No leverage specifications are published for futures contracts. AI, bots, and fully automated trading systems are prohibited across all programs. Micro scalping is explicitly banned. On funded accounts, Tier 1 news events impose a 5-minute restriction before and after the release, while other high-impact news applies a 2-minute restriction. Inactivity thresholds are 7 days on funded accounts and 30 days during the evaluation stage.
Payouts are processed exclusively through Riseworks. Minimum payout amounts and processing timelines are not specified in published program materials. Copy trading is permitted only across accounts belonging to the same trader and may not be used across multiple simultaneous evaluations. Profit split details are referenced in the firm's help documentation but are not included in the published program data.
Blue Guardian Futures enforces a 5:1 risk-to-reward ratio rule across all accounts. The CME 2% price limit rule applies, prohibiting trades within 2% of daily CME price limits. All-in trading is explicitly prohibited and includes any attempt to manipulate position size by starting with a large size and reducing it during the trade. Traders must use stop-losses on all positions — relying on the account threshold to close trades is not permitted. Multiple limit orders placed at the same price simultaneously are prohibited. These rules collectively reflect a structured risk management framework targeting futures traders who require clear position discipline.
