BlueBerry Funded
Blueberry Funded sounds harmless — broker-backed, institutional infrastructure, scaling to $2 million. Then you start reading. News trades near high-impact events get slashed to a 40% profit split. EAs cost extra and aren't included by default. Switch from EA to manual after passing and that's a violation. Three strikes before termination sounds generous until you read what counts as a strike. Read the T&Cs before you buy — not after.

Strict rules designed to fail you
Their pricing and promotions drew me in. The product itself is lacking. Their Discord moderators ban anyone who posts critical questions. If you like fighting with support, by all means sign up.— Verified Trader (isabella kim) See all reviews
The 1.5% trade idea rule is the most commonly misunderstood rule — any re-entry in the same direction within 10 minutes of a previous loss counts toward the same combined limit. If your first trade lost 1%, you have 0.5% remaining for that idea window. The news restriction applies to automatic TP and SL executions too — not just manual trades. On Instant accounts, calculate how much buffer remains before withdrawing profits.
Trading Conditions
Drawdown System
- 1.5% trade idea rule: initial position + re-entries same direction within 10 minutes = one idea
- Combined loss across trade idea cannot exceed 1.5% of initial balance
- Instant accounts: drawdown does not reset after withdrawals — profits withdrawal leaves thin buffer
- 30-day inactivity: account may be suspended
- Applies to: 1-Step, 2-Step, Instant Lite, Instant Elite
High-Frequency & Fast Trading
- Not Allowed:
- Re-entries in same direction within 10 minutes after loss counted as same trade idea
- Fast reactive trading after losses — behavioral pattern monitoring
- Copying from external accounts or other traders
Low Liquidity & Timing
- News window: no opening or closing trades 2 minutes before/after high-impact news
- Applies to both evaluation and funded accounts
- TP hit during window: profits may be voided — even if trade not manually touched
- Exception: trade opened 6+ hours before news hitting SL — allowed
Loss-Chasing & Gambling
- Not Allowed:
- Re-entries in same direction within 10 minutes of a loss — counted toward 1.5% combined cap
- Fast decisions after losses that constitute reactive trading patterns
- Adjusting positions actively around news events
- Copy trading from external accounts or other traders
Risk Management
- 1.5% trade idea cap enforced on funded accounts — 1-Step, 2-Step, Instant Lite, Instant Elite
- Trade idea defined as: initial position + same-direction re-entries within 10 minutes
- Copy trading: personal accounts only — external copying prohibited
- Instant account drawdown: does not reset after withdrawals — structural risk after profit withdrawal
- Trustpilot: 37% one-star — profile flagged for review credibility concerns
Blueberry Funded - Trading Conditions & Rules
News Trading
- - No opening or closing trades:
- - 2 minutes before and after high-impact news
Applies to:
- Evaluation accounts
- Funded accounts
Important detail:
- - If your take profit gets hit during that window,
→ profits may be voided
Exception:
- - If the trade was opened 6+ hours before news and hits SL → allowed
So your entry matters.
Your exit matters.
And apparently, your timing matters even when you’re not touching the trade.
Drawdown Adjustment Rule (Instant Accounts)
- - Max drawdown does not reset after withdrawals
- - Withdrawing most profits can leave your account with:
- - almost no buffer
You made money. Great.
Now try not to remove too much of it, or the account becomes… structurally sensitive.
Copy Trading
- - Allowed between personal accounts only
You can copy yourself.
Which is reassuring, assuming you trust your own decisions.
1.5% Risk Per Trade Idea (Funded Only)
- - A “trade idea” includes:
- - The initial position
- - Any re-entries in the same direction within 10 minutes after a loss
- - Combined loss must not exceed:
- - 1.5% of the initial balance
Applies to:
So it’s not just one trade being evaluated.
It’s your entire thought process within a short time window.
Inactivity Rule
- - You must place at least one trade every 30 days
- - Otherwise, your account may be suspended
Even not trading requires participation.
Consistency goes both ways.
The Part That Raises Eyebrows
Blueberry Funded doesn’t just stand out for its rules.
- - Around 37% of it's TrustPilot reviews are 1-star
- - Common complaints include:
- - Payout denials
- - Accounts flagged after trading activity
There have also been concerns about review credibility, including attempts to influence ratings.
To be fair, the rules exist.
But many traders only seem to fully understand them… after something goes wrong.
Final Take
Blueberry Funded is highly focused on:
- - Trade timing
- - Behavioral patterns
- - Risk aggregation across trades
The structure is not overly complex.
But it is very precise in how it evaluates what you do.
If you:
- - Trade calmly
- - Avoid reactive re-entries
- - Keep things structured
You’ll likely be fine.
If your style involves:
- - Fast decisions after losses
- - Letting trades close naturally around news
- - Or adjusting positions actively
You may start discovering just how detailed these rules actually are.

Support Actually Replies
wanted lower targets and a calmer ruleset and this fit the bill. their economic calendar integration is a small thing but i use it daily. i appreciated that they email you before a rule change instead of springing it. the challenge timer is generous, i never felt rushed into bad trades. the ui looks like it was designed in 2014 but functionally everything works. kyc was painless, uploaded my id and got verified the same afternoon. overall a quietly competent firm, take that as the compliment it is.
no surprises here
someone in my discord swore these guys pay fast so here we are. idk but fees are reasonable for what you get and teh retake discount softens the blow. i breached the daily loss limit on a tilt day, fulyl my fault, they did nothing wrong. the funded payout split started at 80/20 and scaled up which felt fair. pricing is not the cheapest but you kind of pay for the peace of mind. solid middle of the pack firm that does the boring stuff right.
read the rules first
Came for the cheap eval, stayed for the surprisingly decent payouts. spreads are fine, nothing crazy, nothing terrible, it is a prop firm not a charity. the challenge timer is generous, i never felt rushed into bad trades. their reset option after a breach is cheaper than buying a whole new eval. first withdrawal i was sweating bullets but it came through clean and on time. they honoured a payout even though i fat fingered a lot size, very fair. do your own research but my experience has been genuinely fine.
decent for the price
started with their two step eval because the one step felt too good to be true. the eval took me like 27 trading days total, not fast not slow, just fair. i scaled twice and each bump was a real size jump not some token gesture. crypto and wire both supported, i did wire and it hit my bank in two business days. the demo and funded feeds matched closely enough that i trusted my backtests. i like that they show your stats in real time instead of a delayed dashboard.
Glad I Gave Them A Shot
A mentor of mine uses them so i followed his lead. the scaling plan is actually motivating instead of being some impossible carrot on a stick. they refunded my eval fee when i got funded which was a nice surprise. their mobile app is basic but it does let me check my account on the go. three payouts deep and still no nasty surprises, that is my whole verdict.
Pleasantly Boring
Tried a bunch of firms this year and this one is somewhere in the middle. platform was stable the whole time, no random disconnects during news. i renewed my challenge this month which is basically my whole review right there. i got a small payout bonus for hitting a milestone which was unexpected. their content creators seem to actually trade the product instead of just reading scripts. i had a losing month and they did not nuke my account, just the usual rules applied. the kind of firm you forget about because nothing goes wrong … which is the point.
would buy again
third firm i tested this quarter and probably the most painless so far. support speaks actual english and not copy pasted template answers. leverage is reasonable, not the reckless stuff that blows beginners up. i never had to chase support, they actually closed my ticket the same day. the consistency rule is generous compared to the firms that cap you hard. reliable, fair, slightly dull, exactly what i wanted.
quietly impressed
Been trading prop for like two years and i keep coming back to this one. the second phase target was lower than phase one which kept me sane. honestly the rules made my retail trading better too … forced discipline and all that. no surprise inactivity fees which i half expected to get hit with. go in with a plan or do not go in at all.
mostly good experience
Wanted something with weekend holding allowed so i landed here. i tested the live account against the demo with the same setups and it matched. email notifications can lag a bit which is mildly annoying but not a dealbreaker. the rules pdf is long but at least nothing is buried in tiny print. their economic calendar integration is a small thing but i use it daily. they let me run my algo as long as it is not some latency arbitrage exploit. recommend with the usual caveat that you have to actually read the rules.
Arbitrary account termination
Their customer acquisition is stronger than their customer retention. Platform outages during major market events have cost me real trades. Their responses to negative reviews online tell you everything you need to know.
