Our Take on Blueberry Futures
With an overall rating of 85/100, Blueberry Futures is a futures-focused evaluation platform under the Blueberry family of brands, offering two one-step challenges with clear trading rules. Blueberry Futures offers $25K, $50K, $100K, and $150K accounts on both Ascent and Accelerated programs. You can trade CME futures covering equity futures, micro equity futures, FX futures, livestock, and micro crypto on the BlackArrow trading terminal, available via desktop app, web terminal, and mobile app.
Blueberry Futures is part of the Blueberry family of brands. The setup is straightforward — two one-step challenges, identical targets across all account sizes, and a choice between the more forgiving Ascent (end-of-day drawdown) or the tighter Accelerated (real-time trailing drawdown). Fees start at $129 for the Accelerated $25K account and $139 for the Ascent $25K account. No activation fees are charged. All accounts operate in a simulated trading environment.

Challenge Accounts
Blueberry Futures offers two one-step challenges — Ascent (EOD drawdown) and Accelerated (trailing drawdown) — across $25K, $50K, $100K, and $150K account sizes. Both share the same profit targets and drawdown structure per account size. Your choice comes down to how you prefer the drawdown to behave: end-of-day safety on Ascent or real-time trailing risk on Accelerated. All accounts operate in a simulated trading environment.
Ascent Challenge (EOD Drawdown)
The more forgiving option — drawdown only updates at session close. Intraday pullbacks can't break the account as long as you close above the limit. Higher fee but a steadier experience.
Accelerated Challenge (Trailing Drawdown)
Lower entry cost but demands tighter execution. The trailing drawdown moves up with every new equity high, pushing you toward clean setups and disciplined intraday risk.
Challenge Overview
| Feature | Ascent (EOD) | Accelerated (Trailing) |
|---|---|---|
| Evaluation Structure | One Step | One Step |
| Fee Range | $139 – $610 | $129 – $456 |

| Daily Loss Limit | None | None |
| Max Contracts | Scales with account size | Scales with account size |
| Profit Split | Up to 90% | Up to 90% |
1 Ascent Challenge (EOD Drawdown)
Ascent is the more forgiving choice because the drawdown only updates at the end of each session. Intraday pullbacks and noisy swings cannot break the account as long as you close above the limit. This makes the profile comfortable for swing intraday traders or anyone who likes to scale in and hold through volatility during the RTH session.
The higher fee buys you a steadier experience. The risk profile stays similar across account sizes because the drawdown scales with the target.
| Specification | 25,000 Account | 50,000 Account | 100,000 Account | 150,000 Account |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| One-time Fee | $139 | $245 | $370 | $610 |
| Profit Target | $1,500 | $3,000 | $6,000 | $10,000 |
| Max Drawdown (EOD) | $1,000 | $2,000 | $3,000 | $4,500 |
| Daily Loss Limit | None | None | None | None |
| Max Contracts | Scales with size | 2 minis / 20 micros | 6 minis / 60 micros | 9 minis / 90 micros |
| Reset Cost | — | $125 | $188.70 | $310 |
2 Accelerated Challenge (Trailing Drawdown)
Accelerated costs less but demands tighter execution. The trailing drawdown moves up with every new equity high, so giving back open gains can quickly close the gap between your balance and the limit. Traders who bank profits decisively usually adapt faster, while wide-averaging or grid-style tactics tend to struggle.
The structure feels more high conviction, pushing you toward clean setups and disciplined intraday risk.
| Specification | 25,000 Account | 50,000 Account | 100,000 Account | 150,000 Account |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| One-time Fee | $129 | $184 | $276 | $456 |
| Profit Target | $1,500 | $3,000 | $6,000 | $10,000 |
| Max Trailing Drawdown | $1,000 trailing | $2,000 trailing | $3,000 trailing | $4,500 trailing |
| Daily Loss Limit | None | None | None | None |
| Max Contracts | Scales with size | 2 minis / 20 micros | 6 minis / 60 micros | 9 minis / 90 micros |
| Reset Cost | — | $79 | $118 | $194 |
Live-Account Pathway
Traders become eligible for live-account review after 7 successful payout cycles or $28,000 in total withdrawals from one funded account. Eligibility does not guarantee approval — the firm reviews strategy, consistency, and behaviour before offering a live account.
If approved for a live account, the live funded amount equals the original plan's max drawdown:
$25K Plan
$1,000 live
$50K Plan
$2,000 live
$100K Plan
$3,000 live
$150K Plan
$4,500 live
Trading Rules
The rule set focuses on clean behaviour and simple risk control. Only the single max drawdown matters: Ascent checks it at day close, while Accelerated trails it in real time.
| Rule | Status |
|---|---|
| Manual Trading Only | Required— Certain automated and abusive strategies prohibited |
| HFT / Latency Arbitrage | ✗Prohibited |
| Account Sharing / Coordinated Trading | ✗Prohibited |
| Hedging / Cross-Contract Hedging | ✗Prohibited (incl. ES vs MES) |
| Position Sizing | 1 entry + 2 add-ons max; 4th add = stacking violation |
| Consistency Rule (Funded) | 35% (Ascent) / 20% (Accelerated) single-day cap |
| Min Profitable Days (Funded) | 5 days of $200+ profit per payout cycle |

Verdict on Futures Challenges & Rules
Blueberry's streamlined one-step evaluations and clear risk structure earned them a 9/10 in our testing. The rules are consistent, profit targets are reasonable, and the drawdown behaviour is fully transparent across both account types. The absence of a daily loss limit keeps the challenge trader-friendly, and the addition of $25K accounts provides a lower entry point. The live-account pathway gives funded traders a clear long-term goal.
Commission Fees & Pricing
Blueberry's pricing model is straightforward. The evaluation fee covers full access to BlackArrow and Level 1 CME data. No activation fees are charged. The only recurring optional expense is the Level 2/DOM data feed at $61/month for funded traders.
What's Included in the Challenge Fee
BlackArrow Access
Full platform access included
Level 1 CME Data
Real-time data feeds included
No Activation Fee
No additional fee to start funded
Optional Costs
Professional DOM Feed ($61/month)
Level 2 depth-of-book data from CME. Only needed if you rely on ladder-driven decision making — standard Level 1 top-of-book is included at no charge.
Refund Policy
A full refund is available only if no trade has been placed and the request is made within 14 days of purchase. After trading starts, refunds are not available.
Reset Fees
Ascent resets cost more, but the EOD buffer means many traders reset far less often. Accelerated resets are cheaper, but the trailing logic tightens quickly behind new highs.
| Account Size | Ascent Reset | Accelerated Reset |
|---|---|---|
| $50,000 | $125 | $79 |
| $100,000 | $188.70 | $118 |
| $150,000 | $310 | $194 |
Verdict on Commission Fees & Pricing
Blueberry's transparent fee structure earned a 9/10. Level 1 CME data and platform access are included in the challenge fee, with no activation charges. Reset pricing is predictable and reflects the design of each account type. The optional $61/month DOM feed for funded traders prevents a perfect score, but the core pricing remains competitive in the futures prop space.
Financial Markets & Leverage
Blueberry Futures provides a focused set of CME futures covering equity futures, micro equity futures, FX futures, livestock, and micro crypto. Everything trades on CME, CBOT, NYMEX, or COMEX with reliable liquidity, predictable tick behaviour, and enough depth to support both micro-precision strategies and mini-contract momentum trading.

Verdict on Futures Markets
Blueberry's focused CME market selection earned them a 9/10. Our methodology rewards firms that offer high-quality, trade-ready markets rather than broad but thin product lists. Blueberry's lineup of equity futures, micro equity futures, FX futures, livestock, and micro crypto fits real intraday strategies well. The absence of energy futures or broader commodities trims a point, but the practical market access is strong.
Trading Platforms
Blueberry Futures uses BlackArrow as its trading terminal across evaluations and funded accounts. BlackArrow is available via desktop app, web terminal, and mobile app, giving traders multiple ways to access the platform.
BlackArrow Trading Terminal
Desktop App
The most complete setup for active intraday traders and anyone who uses multiple ladders.
Web Terminal
Lighter but reliable enough for routine trading and position management.
Mobile App
Best suited for monitoring or closing trades rather than fast entries.
Platform Fee
Included
CME Data
L1 Free
L2 DOM Data
$61/month
Delivery
Desktop / Web / Mobile
No Third-Party Platform Support
BlackArrow is the sole trading terminal. No MT4/MT5/TradingView integration is available. Manual execution is required under Blueberry rules.
Verdict on Trading Platforms
Blueberry's use of BlackArrow as a single-terminal solution earned a 7.5/10. Execution is fast and stable, and the terminal is available on desktop, web, and mobile. However, our methodology favours firms with multiple platform choices or integrated research tools. With no MT5, TradingView, or built-in news, functionality is strong but not broad enough for a higher score.
Payments & Profit Payout
Blueberry Futures uses short payout cycles, fixed withdrawal limits per cycle, and simple payment methods through RiseWorks and USDT on TRC-20. Steady funded performance can eventually qualify you for live-account consideration.
Profit Split
Up to 90%
Payout Cycle
5 profitable days
Min per Cycle
$500
Max per Cycle
$2,500
Payout Timing & Cycle Rules
A payout becomes available after completing the funded account requirements: five profitable trading days, each showing at least $200 in net profit, plus KYC verification through Veriff. Flat days or losses do not count toward the five-day total.
When you request a payout, the account is paused while the withdrawal is processed. A new cycle starts immediately afterward, so the process becomes a simple loop: build five qualifying days, withdraw, repeat.
Payout Limits & Required Buffer
Payout requests are limited to $500 minimum and $2,500 maximum per payout cycle. After each payout, the account must still hold at least $2,100. If the balance falls below that level, the account may be closed and remaining profit may be split 60% trader / 40% firm.
| Rule | Amount |
|---|---|
| Minimum Withdrawal per Cycle | $500 |
| Maximum Withdrawal per Cycle | $2,500 |
| Required Account Buffer | $2,100 |
| Below-Buffer Split | 60% trader / 40% firm |
Payment Methods
Challenge Payments
Credit & debit cards (Visa, Mastercard, Amex, Discover). No crypto, PayPal, Skrill, or bank transfers for purchases.
Withdrawals
RiseWorks (bank transfers) and USDT on TRC-20. KYC through Veriff required before first payout.
TRC-20 Warning
Using the wrong network for USDT withdrawals can result in permanent loss of funds. Ensure your payout address matches the TRC-20 network before confirming.
Verdict on Payments & Profit Payout
Blueberry's predictable withdrawals and up to 90% profit split earned them an 8/10 in payout scoring. The five-day payout cycle is simple and fast, and RiseWorks plus USDT give traders flexible options. The capped withdrawal range per cycle and $2,100 buffer create some limitation, but the overall system is reliable and straightforward.
Customer Service & Education
Blueberry Futures has solid customer support with 7-day availability and a community-driven Discord, giving you quick access to help and ongoing program updates. The support team handles most queries through ticketing and chat.
Support Channels
Helpdesk & Chat
Available 7 days a week for account issues, rules questions, and payout status checks.
Discord Community
Announcements, promotions, and community discussion.
Dashboard Analytics
Built-in performance tracking and analytics tools.
Educational Resources
Limited Formal Education
There is no formal course or curriculum. Educational tools sit inside the dashboard, which helps you review performance without needing third-party tools.
Verdict on Customer Service & Education
Blueberry's daily support coverage and analytics tools earned a 7/10. Response times are quick, and the Discord community is active and helpful. Educational depth is lighter with no full learning library, but the built-in analytics offer useful performance review tools.
Trust & Community
Blueberry Futures is part of the Blueberry family of brands, which includes Blueberry Markets, a CFD brokerage regulated by ASIC and additional international authorities. However, Blueberry Futures itself is an educational and evaluation platform, not a broker — the futures program should not be confused with the regulated brokerage entity.

Verdict on Trust & Transparency
Blueberry Futures benefits from being part of the Blueberry brand family, which includes an ASIC-regulated brokerage, earning a 9/10 for trust. However, Blueberry Futures itself is an educational and evaluation platform operating in a simulated environment — the ASIC regulation applies to Blueberry Markets, not the futures program. Clear rules, published restrictions, and the wider brand infrastructure provide operational credibility. The only deduction comes from the futures division being newly launched with limited independent review history.
Blueberry Futures Final Score
Blueberry Futures lands at 85/100 overall, helped by strong challenges, competitive pricing, CME market access including micro crypto, and the operational backing of the Blueberry brand family. Blueberry Futures is an educational and evaluation platform, not a broker. It suits traders who already understand futures behaviour and want a clean, rules-based simulated trading environment.
Ascent is a good fit if you like EOD-style risk with room to hold through noise, while Accelerated appeals more to disciplined intraday traders who are comfortable protecting equity highs. Account sizes range from $25K to $150K on both programs, with fees starting at $129 (Accelerated) and $139 (Ascent). No activation fees are charged.
Traders become eligible for live-account review after 7 successful payout cycles or $28,000 in total withdrawals from one funded account. If approved, the live funded amount equals the original plan's max drawdown: $25K → $1,000, $50K → $2,000, $100K → $3,000, $150K → $4,500. Eligibility does not guarantee approval.
