How to Copy Trades in
Blue Guardian Futures
Complete setup guide for automated trade copying across multiple Blue Guardian Futures accounts using PickMyTrade and Tradovate.
Introduction
Copy Trading in Blue Guardian Futures
Blue Guardian Futures is one of the most popular futures prop trading firms, offering funded accounts from $25,000 to $300,000. With a simple one-step evaluation and 100% of your first $25,000 in profits, Blue Guardian Futures has become the go-to choice for futures traders.
While Blue Guardian Futures uses Tradovate as their trading platform, there's no built-in copy trading functionality. This guide will walk you through how to set up professional trade copying with your Blue Guardian Futures accounts using PickMyTrade.
Whether you're managing multiple evaluation accounts or copying trades to funded accounts, this guide covers everything you need to know.
Blue Guardian Futures at a Glance
The account rules, fees and payout terms worth knowing before you connect a Blue Guardian Futures account to a trade copier. Figures reflect Blue Guardian Futures's published rules as of 2026 - always confirm current terms on their official rules page before sizing your accounts.
Profit Split
Blue Guardian Futures pays 100% of your first $15,000 in profit, then splits 90/10 in your favor after that threshold - one of the more generous splits among Tradovate-based futures prop firms as of 2026. The split applies per funded account, so if you're copying trades across several funded accounts, each one tracks its own $15,000 threshold separately.
Drawdown Type
Blue Guardian Futures uses an end-of-day trailing drawdown that locks in at the prior day's close, so intraday dips don't count against you as long as you close the day within the limit. Daily loss limits and overall drawdown vary by plan (Standard, Guardian or Instant) and account size, so check your specific plan's numbers before setting copy multipliers.
Fees & Account Costs
There's no activation fee on funded Standard or Instant accounts. Evaluation pricing starts near $48 for a $25K Guardian account, and resets run roughly $35 on a $25K account up to around $200 on a $150K account, as of 2026. Running several evaluations to feed a copier means these reset costs can add up if an account breaches its drawdown.
Payout Terms
Standard funded accounts can request a withdrawal 7 days after your first trade and every 7 days after that, provided you've logged at least 5 winning trading days; Guardian funded accounts pay out every 14 days. The minimum withdrawal is $500, a 2% processing fee applies, and Blue Guardian Futures targets 24-hour processing on approved payouts, as of 2026.
Consistency Rule
No consistency rule applies during the evaluation phase, but funded accounts must clear one before a payout is approved - roughly 30% on Guardian funded accounts and up to 40% on Standard funded accounts as of 2026, meaning no single trading day can represent more than that share of total profit. Because a copier sends the same trade to every connected account at once, a large win can push one account over its consistency limit while your others stay compliant, so confirm current percentages directly with Blue Guardian Futures.
Automation & Copy-Trading Policy
Blue Guardian Futures explicitly permits copy trading, including through third-party software like PickMyTrade, between accounts you personally own, including your own external accounts. What it prohibits is copying trades from other traders, signal providers, or letting anyone else manage or execute trades on your behalf. There's no cap on how many evaluation accounts you can run, but combined active funded allocation is capped at $400,000 across all funded accounts, as of 2026.

Blue Guardian Futures Trade Copier FAQ
A Blue Guardian Futures trade copier mirrors one source trade, from a TradingView alert or a manual entry, across every Blue Guardian Futures account you connect through Tradovate. Blue Guardian Futures runs a one-step evaluation with a 6-8% profit target and an end-of-day trailing drawdown, depending on your plan (Standard, Guardian or Instant), and PickMyTrade doesn't touch any of that - it simply replicates each entry, exit, stop-loss and take-profit from your master account onto every connected follower account automatically.
Yes. Blue Guardian Futures's own rules state that copy trading, including through third-party software such as PickMyTrade, is allowed between accounts you personally own, including your own external accounts. What's prohibited is copying trades from other traders, signal providers or trade groups, or letting a third party manage or execute trades on your behalf - that can trigger an account review or termination. There's no limit on the number of evaluation accounts you can run, but combined active funded allocation is capped at $400,000 across all funded accounts as of 2026, so confirm the current limits directly with Blue Guardian Futures before connecting several funded accounts to a copier.
Yes. Blue Guardian Futures accounts run on Tradovate (alongside ProjectX, as of 2026), and PickMyTrade connects to Tradovate directly through a one-click OAuth login - no API keys or extra software required.
Each connected Blue Guardian Futures account gets its own quantity multiplier, so a follower account can copy a different position size than the master. This matters more with Blue Guardian Futures because daily loss limits and drawdown differ by plan - a Standard account carries a daily loss limit that a Guardian account doesn't - so a multiplier that's safe on one plan can be too aggressive on another. Stop-loss and take-profit can also be set per account using points, percentage, ticks, price level, or total profit and loss, plus optional trailing stops.
PickMyTrade processes each order in under 200ms on our side once the source trade or TradingView alert fires. The total time you see the fill on each Blue Guardian Futures account also depends on Tradovate and current market conditions, not just PickMyTrade's processing time. Blue Guardian Futures also resets its daily loss value each day at 5pm ET using the higher of balance or equity at that moment, so trades that fire right around the reset can land on either side of that daily window.
PickMyTrade doesn't calculate or enforce any prop firm's drawdown or consistency rules. Blue Guardian Futures applies no consistency rule during the evaluation phase, but funded accounts must clear one before a payout - roughly 30% on Guardian funded accounts and up to 40% on Standard funded accounts as of 2026 - and its drawdown is an end-of-day trailing limit that varies by plan and account size. Because copying sends the same trade to every connected account at once, a single loss or a single large win applies to every connected account simultaneously, which can push one account past its consistency threshold or drawdown limit even while your others stay compliant. Confirm Blue Guardian Futures's current rules directly with Blue Guardian Futures before connecting an evaluation or funded account, and size your copied trades accordingly.
Yes. Alongside the TradingView webhook method, PickMyTrade includes a manual trade copier: place a trade by hand on your source account and it replicates automatically across your connected Blue Guardian Futures accounts.
Manually re-entering the same trade on several accounts is slow, easy to mistime, and doesn't scale once you're holding more than one or two accounts - and Blue Guardian Futures places no cap on the number of evaluation accounts you can run at once, so traders scaling multiple evaluations feel this the most. PickMyTrade automates the entry, exit, stop-loss and take-profit across every connected Blue Guardian Futures account from a single signal, so you can focus on the strategy instead of repeating the same clicks across a growing account list.
