Legends Trading Group 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 Legends Trading Group 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 Legends Trading Group and Blueberry Futures' Ascent plan a $50,000 account starts with its floor at $48,000, $2,000 under the start.

Legends Trading Group and Blueberry Futures have no daily loss limit, so a losing day is bounded only by the max drawdown.

A consistency rule caps how much of the total profit one day may carry. Legends Trading Group's Apprentice and Straight-to-Master plans cap 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.

Legends Trading Group requires at least 4 trading days on Apprentice and 10 on Straight-to-Master before a pass; Blueberry Futures requires at least 2 trading days on Ascent and 1 on Accelerated before a pass.

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

Legends Trading Group and Blueberry Futures differ on 3 of the evaluation rules compared here: drawdown model, 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: Legends Trading Group 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: Legends Trading Group caps one day at 30% of total profit; Blueberry Futures has no consistency rule. To finish in as few sessions as possible, compare the minimum days: Legends Trading Group needs 4 to 10 trading days, depending on the plan, Blueberry Futures needs 1 to 2 trading days, depending on the plan.

Payout terms once funded — Legends Trading Group: Up to twice per month; Blueberry Futures: After 5 profitable days of $200+. Legends Trading Group sells 3 plans: Apprentice, Elite and Straight-to-Master; 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.
