Blue Guardian vs Funded Futures Family

Drawdown, the rule that ends most accounts

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 5-7% trail of room at Blue Guardian and 5% trail at FFF.
