1-Step Rapid

Single-phase evaluation with a 6% profit target: The Rapid challenge requires reaching a $9,000 profit target on a $150,000 account with no time limit. Profit is measured on closed balance — all positions must be flat before the target is confirmed. This is the largest profit target in the Rapid lineup by absolute dollar value.
No time limit: The Rapid challenge has no deadline. Traders can take as long as needed to reach the $9,000 target while respecting all drawdown rules.
No minimum trading days in evaluation and funded stage: The Rapid plan has zero minimum trading day requirements for both passing the challenge and requesting funded payouts. Once the profit target is hit and the 40% consistency rule is satisfied, the evaluation is passed. In the funded stage, payouts can be requested every 3 days with no minimum winning days required.
Daily loss limit of $3,000 — Soft Breach: On a $150,000 Rapid account, the daily loss limit is $3,000 (2% of account size). The Rapid uses a soft breach mechanism — breaching the daily limit does not permanently terminate the account. Instead, trading is paused for the remainder of that session and automatically resumes the following trading day. The account remains fully active and the trader continues working toward the profit target on subsequent days.
Maximum drawdown of $6,000 — EOD (End-of-Day): The total loss limit is $6,000, calculated on an End-of-Day basis. The floor updates only at session close based on the closing balance. Starting at $150,000, the initial floor is $144,000. If the account closes at $154,000, the new floor becomes $148,000. Unlike the soft daily breach, breaching the $6,000 total drawdown results in permanent account termination with no recovery option.
Soft breach resets every trading session: The $3,000 daily soft breach limit resets completely each new trading day regardless of previous results. A trader stopped out for the day returns the next session with a fresh $3,000 daily allowance, effectively functioning as a forced daily stop-loss that prevents single-session catastrophe without permanently ending the account.
Payouts every 3 days — the fastest payout cycle in the Blue Guardian Futures lineup: The Rapid plan offers payouts every 3 days at all account sizes. Funded traders who meet the consistency rule and payout target can request withdrawals on a 3-day rolling cycle, providing the most frequent access to earned profits of any model in the lineup.
No minimum winning days required for funded payouts: Unlike Standard, Pro, and Instant funded accounts which all require 5 winning days per payout cycle, the Rapid funded account has no minimum day requirement. As soon as the payout target and 40% consistency rule are satisfied, a withdrawal can be requested regardless of how few days have elapsed.
Consistency rule of 40% in both evaluation and funded: No single trading day may account for 40% or more of total profits at any given point. On a $150,000 Rapid account where the profit target is $9,000, the maximum single-day profit before triggering the consistency block is $3,599 — anything at or above $3,600 (40% of $9,000) requires additional trading to normalize the ratio. This is particularly relevant at the $150,000 level where 9 Mini contracts can generate substantial single-session profits on strong directional days.
Payout target of $9,000 before first withdrawal: The first funded payout cannot be requested until total profits reach $9,000 — the largest first-payout requirement in the Rapid lineup. On a $150,000 Rapid account with a $3,000 payout cap, the maximum accessible profit on the first withdrawal is $3,000 even if total profits significantly exceed $9,000. Subsequent payout cycles require $6,000 each before a withdrawal can be requested.
News trading restrictions: No positions may be opened, closed, or held — including pending and limit orders — within 5 minutes before or after any red folder news release (FOMC, CPI, NFP, PMI, PPI, Employment Reports, JOLTS, Trump and Powell Speeches). During evaluation, news trading is permitted as part of an overall strategy but cannot be the sole basis for passing — additional non-news trades must be present for account review.
Largest Rapid account with the highest absolute dollar stakes: At $150,000, the Rapid is the largest account in the lineup with the highest daily soft breach ($3,000), the highest total drawdown ($6,000), the highest profit target ($9,000), and the highest payout cap ($3,000). Every dollar amount is scaled to the largest Rapid tier, making this account the highest-stakes version of the Rapid model.
Two consecutive soft breach days can approach total drawdown: A trader who hits the $3,000 soft breach limit on two consecutive trading days accumulates $6,000 in total losses — exactly equal to the total EOD drawdown limit. If the account's closing balance on either day touches the $6,000 total floor, the account is permanently terminated. The soft breach protects against single-session wipeout but two back-to-back maximum-loss sessions are effectively account-ending at this tier.
9-Mini contract capacity at $150,000 creates the highest position exposure in the Rapid lineup: With 9 Mini contracts, a single 1-point ES move generates $450 of position exposure. The $3,000 soft breach limit allows approximately 6-7 points of adverse movement on a full 9-Mini position before trading is paused — a level easily reached in a volatile session. At this contract capacity, precise stop placement is essential to avoid triggering the soft breach in normal market conditions.
$9,000 first payout target creates a meaningful funded runway: Unlike smaller Rapid account sizes where the first payout target is reached more quickly in absolute dollar terms, the $150,000 tier requires $9,000 in funded profits before any withdrawal. Traders who achieve this consistently on a 3-day cycle can theoretically access the maximum $3,000 payout approximately every 3 days once the recurring $6,000 payout target is reached — creating a highly efficient withdrawal rhythm for top performers.
