BluSky

How it is measured:

• The largest single profitable day divided by the SUM OF PROFITABLE DAYS. Losing days are excluded from the calculation entirely, which is more forgiving than dividing by net profit.
• Being out of consistency does not fail an account. It is checked when a payout is requested or a phase is passed, and it corrects itself as more profitable days are added.

Launch:

• 50% in the evaluation, 34% in the Buffer Zone, none once Sim Funded. Because one day cannot exceed 50% of the target, the evaluation needs at least 2 profitable days.

Propel:

• 34% in the evaluation on $25K to $200K and 21% on $300K, then 34% in the Buffer Zone. At 34% the target needs at least 3 profitable days.

Static Growth:

• Works differently - instead of blocking a payout, the PROFIT TARGET automatically rises if any single day exceeds the threshold, recalculated so the best day is no more than that share of the new target. 30% on $150K and $200K, 21% on the $300K Pro.

Orbit:

• No consistency rule at all in the evaluation, which is why it can be passed in a single day. 40% once Sim Funded.

Instant Funding:

• 21% on both Direct to Funded and Instant Sim Funded.

• News trading is allowed - traders may trade news events at their own risk.
• Positions should be closed before the market close. BluSky recommends closing before 4:45 PM ET and the system attempts auto-liquidation around 15 minutes before the close, but the trader remains responsible.

While Sim Funded:

• Stop trading for the day after $5,000 in daily profit and for the week after $10,000 in weekly profit. Crossing $10,000 in total profit triggers a mandatory Brokerage Review.
• A Support Review Ticket must be opened BEFORE total profit passes $10,000 on an account. Reviews can take up to 5 trading days, and trading during a review forfeits the account.
• On promotion to Live Brokerage, up to $10,000 of profit per account transfers over, less any payouts already taken, capped at $30,000 per trader. The buffer is not part of that figure. If the broker denies the application, simulated profits are forfeited.
• Direct to Funded is the only plan with a losing-day limit: 3 negative days per rolling 10 TRADING days. A fourth inside that window closes the account, so 7 of any 10 traded days must be profitable. Days with no trades are not counted.
• Up to 3 Sim Funded accounts per trader, and up to 3 Instant Sim Funded accounts. Evaluation accounts are unlimited in any combination.
• The Risk Team may review an account at any time and may adjust the daily loss limit, reduce contract size or pause the account. Trades outside contract limits or temporary risk restrictions can be met with PnL adjustments, balance corrections or position liquidation.
• Traders who breach drawdown on 3 or more Sim Funded or Live Brokerage accounts may be restricted to a single active account at the Risk Team's discretion.

Launch:

• The launch fee is charged when the evaluation is PASSED, not at purchase, and there are 14 days to pay it. Miss the deadline and the passed evaluation expires permanently - no reset or renewal restores it.
• Launch and Propel bill every 30 days during the evaluation only, at whatever price was paid at purchase including any discount. Billing stops on passing; nothing is charged during the Buffer Zone or while Sim Funded.
• A renewal on an already-failed evaluation includes a free reset. A reset never moves the renewal date. Paid resets: Launch $49/$59/$69 by size, Propel $79, Orbit $99/$109/$279/$279. Buffer Zone resets are $250 for the first three, then $300, $350 and so on in threes.
• Orbit is a one-time purchase with no subscription. The evaluation is valid for 30 days from purchase and a reset does not extend that window - the account expires regardless.
• Brokerage entry requires KYC and AML checks with a government ID and proof of address. Failing them, or a broker rejection for any reason, terminates the account with no refund.
• Payment is made as an independent contractor on a 1099. A 1099 for an LLC requires choosing Gusto - Rise does not issue them. Non-US traders submit a W-8BEN on the first payout.
