Blueberry Futures vs Futures Elite

Drawdown, the rule that ends most accounts

Blueberry runs a EOD or Trailing drawdown and FE runs EOD / Trailing Equity.

Trailing means the limit rises with your equity peak, open positions included: giving profit back can end the account even without a real loss. EOD only recalculates at the session close, which forgives intraday swings.

In practice that is $1K-$5K of room at Blueberry and 3-4% trail at FE.

What entry really costs

The cheapest entry is Blueberry, from $44.16 with the coupon applied at checkout, against $67.20 at FE.

The discount differs too: 60% OFF at Blueberry and 30% OFF at FE.

Blueberry / FE charges no activation fee, so the price you see is the full cost up to the funded account.

When the money leaves

On the split, Blueberry pays 90% and FE pays 90%.

FE allows a payout from the first profitable day, which shortens the path between passing and getting paid.

Declared speed: Broker-backed at Blueberry and Same day / sub-second at FE.

The rules that kill the account

Minimum trading days: 2 at Blueberry and 1 at FE.

Blueberry explicitly bans: Account hedging entre contas, HFT bots.

FE explicitly bans: Account hedging, HFT bots.

Which one fits you
