Blueberry Futures Review 2026 — Broker-Backed Futures Prop Firm, Rules & Payouts | PropTradingArea

BlueBerry Futures

2.8 (62 reviews) Futures Trust: 2.9/5 Updated

Blueberry Futures is the futures arm of the Blueberry group — broker-backed, which sounds reassuring until you read the graduation requirements. Two evaluation paths, four account sizes, and a funded journey that ends when you've completed 7 payout cycles or withdrawn $28,000. Not when you pass the challenge. When they say so.

News Traders No explicit ban — bracketing data releases prohibited, behavioral enforcement applies

About BlueBerry Futures

In practice, the product is new enough that the community feedback is still thin. Five Trustpilot reviews, 80% of which are one-star, is not a track record. It's a data point worth noting.

The evaluation structure is straightforward — two paths, four account sizes, 90% profit split, no activation fee. The rules are what you'd expect from a serious futures firm: no VPN, no HFT, no bracketing data releases, and a hard cap of 200 trades per day.

The part most traders don't read before buying: passing the evaluation is not the finish line. Graduation requires either 7 payout cycles or $28,000 in total withdrawals from a single account. That's a meaningful commitment that doesn't appear prominently on the challenge pages.

If the execution quality lives up to the broker backing and the product matures — Blueberry Futures could be worth a serious look. Right now, it's worth a careful one.

Trader Tip

Graduation is the goal, not just passing the evaluation — 7 payout cycles or $28,000 total withdrawals from a single account is what unlocks full capital access. VPN means immediate account closure and profit forfeiture with no exceptions — plan ahead if you travel. Ascent (EOD) is more forgiving if you build slowly, Accelerated (Trailing) gets you funded faster but the floor tightens as you profit.

some wins some headaches

Wanted lower targets and a calmer ruleset so this one caught my eye. support speaks english well but the timezone gap slows everything down. the ui looks like it was designed in 2014 but functionally everything works. spreads on majors are reasonable, gold is where they widen out on you. customer service is friendly but clearly works limited hours. scaling is there but it rewards consistency over big wins which suits some not all. they pay, they just make you work for the peace of mind.

Two Accounts Two Breaches

Heard about them on a youtube review and figured i'd see for myself. got charged an inactivity fee on an account i was told had none. their live chat is a bot that loops you back to the faq no matter what you type. my withdrawal request just disappeared from the dashboard overnight. fees for the data feed showed up on my statement and nobody warned me.

Mostly Good Experience

Got tired of demo trading and figured a challenge would force me to focus. payout came in crypto fine but teh fiat option had extra steps. withdrawal request was approved quick but the bank leg took three days. dude weekend holding is allowed which i liked but the swap fees stack up fast. onboarding emails were clear … the actual rules pdf was a bit of a maze. i would only send a friend here with a long list of warnings.

support ticket black hole

grabbed an account to see if the hype online held up. phone support does not exist and email answers take a week if they come at all. the refund they owe for a duplicate charge has been pending since february. their terms link goes to a 404 whenever i try to dispute something. the scaling plan is bait, nobody i know has actually been scaled. support's only answer is read the faq even when the faq says nothing about it. they accused me of copy trading because two of my trades looked similar. absolute scam, they invent rules to dodge every withdrawal.

avoid this one

Decided to try funded trading after years of trading my own cash. live spreads are nothing like the demo they let you try first. i passed the challenge and then waited eleven days for credentials that never came. they changed the payout split from 90 to 80 and called it an update. the terms let them void profits basically whenever they feel like it. stay away … they are in the business of selling evals not paying traders.

ok firm odd rules

First prop firm i actually stuck with long enough to get funded. teh challenge was doable but the time pressure made me overtrade a bit. spreads are fine for swing trades, scalping is where the costs add up. dude platform execution is solid but the economic calendar built in is barely usable. the funded account felt real but the first payout had an extra verification step. cautious three stars, they have work to do.

they find excuses not to pay

My buddy kept hyping these guys up so i gave them a shot. they removed my profits for "gap trading" on a position i opened mid session. commissions quietly doubled between my first and second account. the withdrawal minimum jumped right above my available balance, convenient. my account got flagged for "toxic trading" with zero explanation of what that means. every withdrawal gets flagged for manual review and then sits for weeks. posting this everywhere so at least my eval fee buys someone else a warning.

decent with some quirks

Was super skeptical going in because of all the horror stories online. the consistency requirement kept me disciplined but also kept me small. the discord is active but the staff answers are mostly copy paste. support eventually answered but it took three follow ups to get a real human. the profit target felt fair but the minimum trading days dragged it out. the firm is legit as far as i can tell, just slower on everything than advertised. i stay because moving firms is a pain, not because they earned it.

slippage killed my account

Came here after getting burned somewhere else and starting over. bro they denied teh payout because my lot sizes were too consistent, i can't win either way. the drawdown is calculated in whatever way loses you the account, i swear. my payout has been "processing" for three weeks and counting. my ticket sat open for nine days then got marked resolved with no reply. i breached on a spread spike that came from their own feed, ticket denied. zero trust left, closing my account the second support actually responds.

solid but not flawless

tried them out after a refund nightmare with a competitor. verification cleared but they asked me to re record the video once. i had no payout issues but i kept screenshots of everything just in case. the funded rules are stricter than the eval which caught me off guard. kyc went through but it asked for a second proof of address i had to dig up. recommend, but read the consistency rule twice before you start. can you guys get in contact with this firm if I provide an acc number? their customer support hasn't replied in 3 days.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between Ascent and Accelerated?
Ascent uses EOD drawdown — the floor is measured at end of each trading session, giving more intraday flexibility. Accelerated uses trailing drawdown, requires only 1 minimum trading day, and costs less — but the floor moves as you profit. Both offer 90% profit split.
What does graduation mean at Blueberry Futures?
Passing the evaluation unlocks the funded stage, but full graduation requires either 7 payout cycles or $28,000 in total withdrawals from a single account. This is different from most prop firms where passing the challenge is the final step.
Can I use a VPN with Blueberry Futures?
No. VPN usage is strictly prohibited and may result in immediate account closure and forfeiture of all profits. This applies regardless of the reason, including travel. Plan your access method before you start.
Are Expert Advisors allowed?
Automated trading is permitted within limits. The maximum is 200 trades per day — strategies exceeding this threshold constitute prohibited HFT. EAs designed for high-frequency scalping or exploiting simulated environment conditions are not allowed.
Can I trade news events?
There is no explicit news trading ban. However, bracketing data releases — opening positions around news to exploit the lack of slippage in the simulated environment — is explicitly prohibited. Standard directional news trading is permitted.
What happens if I fail the evaluation?
You can purchase a reset to restart the evaluation. Reset costs vary by account size — $47.04 for $25K Ascent, $41.40 for $25K Accelerated. All fees are final and non-refundable regardless of outcome.
Always do your own research. Never risk more than you can afford to lose. Last updated:
