Does Blue Guardian Have a Consistency Rule?
The Simple Answer
Yes, on some accounts. The Instant Standard account has a 20% consistency rule, the Instant Starter a 15% rule, and the 2 Step (Pro) a 25% rule in the funded stage. The 1 Step and 2 Step Standard, 3 Step and 1 Step Pro accounts have no consistency rule.
Consistency Rule by Account Type
How the Rule Is Calculated
The consistency score is your single biggest trading-day profit divided by your total trading-day profit: (Highest Trading Day Profit ÷ Total Trading Days PnL) × 100. To stay eligible, the result must be at or below your account limit. Partial trades count on the day the position is fully closed.
Say your total profit is $4,000 and your single best day made $1,000. Your consistency score is 1,000 ÷ 4,000 = 25%. On the Instant (Standard) account the limit is 20%, so at that moment you cannot withdraw yet. To fix it, your total profit needs to reach at least 1,000 ÷ 0.2 = $5,000, so you keep trading (without beating that $1,000 day) until your total clears $5,000 and the score drops to 20% or below.
Breakdown by Account Type
1 Step (Standard): No rule
The 1 Step (Standard) account has no consistency requirement. Your best day can be any share of total profit without affecting your eligibility.
2 Step (Standard): No rule
The 2 Step (Standard) account has no consistency requirement. Your best day can be any share of total profit without affecting your eligibility.
3 Step: No rule
The 3 Step account has no consistency requirement. Your best day can be any share of total profit without affecting your eligibility.
1 Step (Pro): No rule
The 1 Step (Pro) account has no consistency requirement. Your best day can be any share of total profit without affecting your eligibility.
2 Step (Pro): 25%
On the 2 Step (Pro) account, your largest single trading day must stay at or below 25% of total profit, checked in the funded phase before you can withdraw.
Instant (Standard): 20%
On the Instant (Standard) account, your largest single trading day must stay at or below 20% of total profit, checked in the funded phase before you can withdraw.
Instant (Starter): 15%
On the Instant (Starter) account, your largest single trading day must stay at or below 15% of total profit, checked in the funded phase before you can withdraw.
On the $300,000 and $400,000 Instant Standard accounts, a stricter 15% consistency rule applies instead of 20%.
What Happens If You Break It
Breaking the consistency rule at Blue Guardian does not breach or reset your account. It is purely a payout gate: if your biggest day is too large a share of profit when you request a withdrawal, the payout is held, not cancelled, and your funded account stays active. You keep trading until your largest day falls back to the limit, then request the payout again. See the full Blue Guardian payout methods and timelines for how withdrawals are processed.
How to Fix a Failing Score
The fix is dilution: keep making profit over your next trading days so your biggest day shrinks as a share of the total. Divide your best day by the limit as a decimal to find the total profit you need. For a 20% limit, a $1,000 best day needs total profit of at least $1,000 ÷ 0.2 = $5,000. So you keep trading, without beating that best day, until your total clears $5,000 and the score drops to 20% or below.
Final Comments
Blue Guardian applies a consistency rule only on its Instant Standard (20%), Instant Starter (15%) and 2 Step (Pro) (25%) accounts, checked at payout. The standard multi-step and 1 Step Pro accounts have none. Where it applies, the payout button simply stays locked until your best day falls back within the limit; your account is never breached.
Consistency is just one funded-phase rule. If your strategy trades around releases, check whether news trading is allowed at Blue Guardian before you scale up.
