Blue Guardian: Consistency rule (Instant & Pro only)
▶Blue Guardian Consistency Rule: Why Your Payout Gets Locked — 40s explainer, decoded by FundedWiki
Applies to Instant Standard & Guardian X (20%), Instant Starter (15%) and 2-Step Pro (25%): no single day's profit may be ≥ that share of total payout-period profit. The standard challenge plans (1/2/3-Step Standard) have NO consistency rule.
The gotcha
Breaching it doesn't void the account — it disables the payout button until your best day's share drops back below the threshold.
What happens if you break it
Breaching this doesn't necessarily close the account, but it can disqualify the payout you were trading toward — you keep trading, the profit doesn't get paid.
