Blue Guardian Rules and Challenge Blueprint: 2026 Drawdown, EA & Payout Engineering

Direct Technical Answer

Blue Guardian Unlimited 2-Step rules use a 4% daily loss limit and a static 8% maximum loss, with an 8% Phase 1 profit target, a 4% Phase 2 target, and an 85% split. Elite max is 10%, Rapid 1-Step uses 4% daily and 6% trailing max, and funded Guardian Shield flattens at a 1% to 2% dip.

Blue Guardian's 85% split and 4% Phase 2 look generous until Guardian Shield exists. On funded accounts the Shield can flatten you at a 1% to 2% open dip, count it as a strike, and end the book after two or three strikes even if 4% daily never printed. Unlimited, Elite, and Rapid are three different max-loss contracts wearing one Dubai/Scotland badge.

Unlimited 8%, Elite 10%, Rapid trailing 6%

Unlimited Guardian 2-Step: 4% daily, static 8% max, 8% then 4% targets, zero minimum days, 85% split, bi-weekly payouts from 14 days after the first funded trade. Elite Guardian 2-Step: 10% static max instead of 8%. Rapid Guardian 1-Step: 4% daily, 6% trailing max. Reset 00:00 GMT+2/GMT+3, higher of day-start balance or equity. $100K fee is $400. Platforms: MT5, Match-Trader, TradeLocker. EAs and risk managers allowed. Built-in Guardian Shield enforces a 1% to 2% floating loss cap per trade on funded accounts.

News: 5-minute window on funded accounts unless a news add-on is active. Weekend and overnight holding allowed. If you start a free Venasri account, name the profile after Unlimited, Elite, or Rapid. Copying Unlimited 8% size onto Rapid's 6% trail is a one-week mistake. Copying any of them onto funded without a Shield-aware cap is a two-strike mistake.

4% Phase 2 and zero days, with an 85% split on the other side

Phase 2 at 4% ($4,000 on $100K) plus zero minimum days is an E8-like fast second step, except daily is 4% ($4,000) not 5%. Phase 2 target equals the daily hole. One 4.1% idea can pass Phase 2 or die. Split Phase 2 into several 0.8% attempts. Phase 1 at 8% with 4% daily is the same shape as Maven's 8%/4% daily relationship: you cannot take a 5% swing at 8%.

85% default split is better than the 80% crowd and worse than Aqua-style 90% defaults, but it is paid only if Shield strikes do not retire the funded account. Bi-weekly from day 14 is ordinary. The Shield is the extraordinary clause. Read it as a product, not as a help widget.

Guardian Shield is a funded flatten, then a strike

Blue Guardian's primary trap is triggering Shield, which forcibly flattens at a 1% or 2% floating dip and counts as a soft strike. Two or three strikes terminate the funded account. Evaluation 4% daily can feel roomy. Funded 1% to 2% Shield is not roomy. A gold idea that floats 1.8% then recovers would have been a scare on Unlimited evaluation and a strike plus a flatten on funded. You do not get the recovery.

Repeated Shield hits are how good evaluation traders lose funded books. They size like 4% daily still governs. It does, but Shield governs first. Risk 0.40% to 0.70% per funded idea so a normal wick cannot print 1%. Elite's 10% static max is lifetime air, not Shield air. Rapid's 6% trail can also crawl up, then Shield still flattens the 1% dip on the new peak's trade.

Outrun Shield with a tighter personal flatten

Set Venasri Equity Guard near $3,250 daily on Unlimited $100K for evaluation, then drop the per-idea flatten to about 0.8% ($800) once funded so Shield at 1% to 2% never fires. Manual Trade Guard on the ZeroMQ MT5 Bridge must attach SL immediately so a naked spike cannot become strike one.

24/7 MT5 Bot Control should treat a Shield-near float as an emergency close, pause funded news-window entries unless the add-on is on, and refuse to reopen the same gold idea after a flatten (re-entry is how strike two happens). Zero minimum days are for evaluation speed. Funded life is slow on purpose if you want the 85% split more than once.

Frequently Asked Questions: Blue Guardian Rules and Challenge Blueprint: 2026 Drawdown, EA & Payout Engineering

What is Blue Guardian Unlimited drawdown?

4% daily and static 8% max, with 8% then 4% profit targets, zero minimum days, and 85% split. On $100K that is $4,000 daily, $8,000 max, $8,000 then $4,000 targets. Elite uses 10% max. Rapid 1-Step uses 4% daily and 6% trailing max. Fee on $100K is $400.

What is Guardian Shield on Blue Guardian?

A funded-account mechanism that flattens positions at about 1% to 2% floating loss and records a strike. Two or three strikes can terminate the funded account even if 4% daily was never reached. Evaluation 4% daily is not a substitute for respecting Shield once funded.

Does Blue Guardian require minimum trading days?

No on the listed Guardian evaluations. You can complete an 8% Phase 1 as soon as the target prints inside 4% daily. Phase 2 is 4%, which equals the daily hole, so do not take it in one trade. Weekend holding is allowed. Funded news uses a 5-minute window unless an add-on is active.

Are EAs allowed on Blue Guardian?

Yes, plus risk managers, subject to standard MT5 anti-hyperactivity limits. Shield still applies on funded accounts even if an EA is legal. A bot that lets gold float 1.8% will collect strikes. Attach hard stops and flatten before Shield does.
