Blueberry Futures rules in full
- News Trading: You may not open any new market or pending orders on the affected asset from 3 minutes before until 3 minutes after a Red Folder (High Impact) news event, but you are allowed to keep open and manually close existing positions at any time as long as they were opened more than 3 minutes prior to the news. Any profits generated from new trades opened during this restricted window will be deducted, and repeated violations may trigger an account review.
- Copy Trading: Yes, To Any third-party platforms, as long as they are used for copying one’s own trades only
- Inactivity Rule: We don’t have an inactivity period. You have 30 days to pass the evaluation before your subscription renews, unless you cancel it. Your subscription will continue to rebill every 30 days until you either pass or cancel.
- DCA - Dollar Cost Averaging (Stacking): We allow DCA/position stacking, but you can only enter the same instrument and direction up to 3 times per trade idea: 1 initial entry + up to 2 additional adds. This 3-entry limit applies to all account sizes and is a behavior rule, separate from the Max Contracts rule. A 4th entry in the same direction on the same instrument is a violation, even if you’re still under your contract cap. You must always respect both: max 3 entries per idea and the Max Contracts limits for your account size.
- Micro Scalping: Manual scalping is allowed, but high-frequency “tick scalping” and HFT-style behavior are not. There is no strict minimum hold time per trade, but the Risk Team actively monitors for patterns where trades are repeatedly opened and closed within a few seconds (0–10s), as this is considered prohibited HFT/arbitrage-style activity. If you are manually entering and exiting based on market structure and your trades last longer than mere feed latency, you are within the intended rules.
- Hedging: You cannot hold a Long and Short position on the same asset simultaneously. This includes cross-contract hedging. For example, holding a Long position on a Mini contract (e.g., NQ) while simultaneously holding a Short position on the Micro equivalent (e.g., MNQ) is a strict violation.
- One-Direction Rule: Using max leverage on a single trade idea without technical justification. This includes consistently across many accounts taking advantage of one single market direction to keep placing one-sided trades. We understand this behavior as intentional one-sided trading rather than legitimate strategy.
- Bulk account exploitation: Buying many accounts to trade in an exploitative manner is explicitly listed as a prohibited strategy.
- High Frequency Trading: Strategies that enter and exit positions in sub‑second intervals to exploit server latency are labeled HFT and are strictly prohibited.
- Stop‑Loss policy: Not required. But strongly recommended.
- VPN Usage: Use of VPNs, VPSs, or any location-masking tools to bypass these restrictions is strictly prohibited and may result in account termination and forfeiture of any profits.
Scaling rules
Payouts
Payout
For both Accelerated and Ascent funded (Performance) accounts, the payout logic is the same. The only difference by program is the consistency % cap (explained below)
To be able to request a payout in a given cycle you must:
Complete 5 profitable trading days
- A Profitable Day = $200+ net profit on that day.
- Days with less than $200 profit do not count toward the 5.
Respect the Consistency Rule (per program)
- Accelerated: No single day can be more than 20% of total cycle profit.
- Ascent: No single day can be more than 35% of total cycle profit.
Have enough profit to cover BOTH
- The Required Buffer (must stay in the account)
- The Minimum Payout (minimum you’re allowed to withdraw)
Required buffer: 25k – $1100, 50k – $2100, 100k – $3100, 150k – $4600
Minimum payout + buffer
- 25k – $250 + $1,100
- 50k – $500 + $2,100
- 100k – $750 + $3,100
- 150k – $1,000 + $4,600
There is no waiting period after you meet these conditions – as soon as you satisfy them, you can request a payout and start that cycle’s review.
