Earn2Trade vs Blueberry Futures: prop firm rules compared

Blueberry Futures' Accelerated plan trails the drawdown intraday: the floor follows the highest balance the account reaches during the session, open profit included, and never moves back down — a winning trade given back before it is closed still lifts it. For example, at Blueberry Futures' Accelerated plan a $50,000 account starts with its floor at $48,000, $2,000 under the start.

On Earn2Trade and Blueberry Futures' Ascent plan the drawdown trails at end of day: the floor is recalculated once, from the closing balance, so open profit given back during the session does not raise it — but equity touching the floor during the session still counts. For example, at Earn2Trade and Blueberry Futures' Ascent plan a $50,000 account starts with its floor at $48,000, $2,000 under the start.

On Earn2Trade the trailing floor stops rising once it reaches breakeven and stays there.

A hard daily loss limit ends the evaluation: one day that loses that much fails the account. Earn2Trade sets it at $1,100 on $50,000. Blueberry Futures has no daily loss limit, so a losing day is bounded only by the max drawdown.

Earn2Trade starts the trading day at 6:00 PM ET (5:00 PM CT); a daily loss limit counts from that reset, not from midnight.

A consistency rule caps how much of the total profit one day may carry. Earn2Trade caps any single day at 30% of total profit, so it takes at least 4 profitable days to finish inside the rule. One day may then carry at most $900 of a $3,000 target. Blueberry Futures applies no consistency rule in the evaluation, so one large day can count in full.

Blueberry Futures requires at least 2 trading days on Ascent and 1 on Accelerated before a pass; Earn2Trade sets no minimum number of days.

Blueberry Futures' evaluation runs for 30 days; a target not reached by then is not a pass.

Earn2Trade and Blueberry Futures differ on 4 of the evaluation rules compared here: drawdown model, daily loss limit, consistency rule and minimum trading days. If your trades often run into open profit that you give back before closing them, start with the drawdown: Earn2Trade trails at end of day, while Blueberry Futures trails intraday or at end of day, depending on the plan. If one or two large days make up most of your profit, the consistency rule sets how fast you can finish: Earn2Trade caps one day at 30% of total profit; Blueberry Futures has no consistency rule. If you keep trading after a losing morning, look at what the daily loss limit does: Earn2Trade fails the account at its daily loss limit; Blueberry Futures has no daily loss limit. To finish in as few sessions as possible, compare the minimum days: Earn2Trade sets no minimum, Blueberry Futures needs 1 to 2 trading days, depending on the plan.

Once funded, the profit split is 50% / 80% tiered by withdrawal size at Earn2Trade and 90/10 at Blueberry Futures. Payout terms — Earn2Trade: Weekly (Wednesdays); Blueberry Futures: After 5 profitable days of $200+. Earn2Trade sells 2 plans: Gauntlet Mini and Trader Career Path; Blueberry Futures sells 2 plans: Ascent and Accelerated. Each plan carries its own version of the rules above, which is why they are listed plan by plan.
