Customer Reviews (1199)

  • Marian Brown
    2 years ago

    I’ve given BlueGuardian a shot, and I must say, their rules are refreshingly straightforward, making trading less complicated. I really appreciate that they allow hedging too. The customer support is impressive; whenever I’ve had issues, I just create a ticket, and they resolve it quickly on Discord.

  • Tyree D'Amore
    2 years ago

    The leverage offered on gold is limited to 1:20, which can be quite restrictive for accounts under £100,000, particularly when it comes to margin violations.

    When I encountered an issue and reached out to support, their suggestion was to open a new order at a reduced size. However, I expressed my concerns about taking that route, only to receive the same recommendation once more. Ultimately, my account ended up in breach.

    While I understand that leverage sizes can be verified beforehand, it was frustrating to receive a repetitive response from customer service when I highlighted my dilemma.

  • Charles Gaylord
    2 years ago

    I’ve been a part of this company for the past three months, and I’ve found their support to be quite impressive. Whenever I’ve encountered issues, they’ve been quick to respond, helping me to find effective solutions every time. In a world that feels pretty chaotic right now, it’s nice to work with a firm that genuinely cares. Overall, I’d say they’re a solid choice.

  • Jeanne Bergstrom
    2 years ago

    I had a frustrating experience with this trading firm. While I was in a trade that was clearly moving in my favor, it unexpectedly got closed without any warning. I reached out to support for clarification, and I ended up waiting two hours for a response from Eric, the COO. Meanwhile, he was busy hosting a live market structure lecture, seemingly without a care. This lack of accountability and respect for traders is disappointing.

  • Marietta Okuneva
    2 years ago

    This firm seems to be operating under dubious practices. I strongly advise prospective traders to steer clear! It’s essential to do thorough research before committing any funds, as my experience indicates this is not a trustworthy environment.

  • Agustina Hoppe
    2 years ago

    This proprietary trading firm is quite impressive. I’ve found that their response times on Discord are swift, which is definitely a plus. It’s reassuring to know that when I have questions or need assistance, I won’t be left hanging for too long. Overall, my experience has been positive.

  • Kennith Hoppe
    2 years ago

    I successfully navigated the Phase 1 and Phase 2 challenges with just four trades; one of those was a minor loss, while the other three were significant wins, particularly since I was trading gold. After completing Phase 2, I received an email claiming my account was flagged for gambling behavior under the “All or Nothing” criteria. Now, I know that “All or Nothing” typically refers to opening a position without stop-loss or take-profit levels, which can determine the challenge’s outcome. However, in my case, I adhered to proper guidelines by using both a stop-loss and take-profit in my trades. With gold prices sharply declining, I chose to hold my position to capitalize on a larger move. This decision is simply an example of effective risk management. Interestingly, I utilized a lot size of 4 on a 100K account. Yet, despite my clearly outlined approach, I haven’t received any response to my email regarding this issue.

  • Anthony Ledner
    2 years ago

    This is definitely one of the best proprietary trading firms I’ve ever encountered! It’s exciting to see that MT5 has made a return.

  • Georgette Torphy
    2 years ago

    This has been an impressive experience with the proprietary trading firm. The customer service team responds promptly, and navigating the platform has been quite straightforward. Overall, I’m very satisfied with the service provided.

  • Rhianna Ortiz
    2 years ago

    The quality of service has consistently declined. This firm frequently changes its trading platform, which has led to delays in providing crucial information, such as details for the second phase account and real funded account. Additionally, there seems to be an increasing number of complicated rules that make it increasingly difficult to withdraw actual funds from the firm.

  • Providenci Orn
    2 years ago

    Blue Guardian is genuinely impressive! I just got my second payout, and I couldn’t be happier. Whenever I run into issues, their customer service is exceptional—they resolve things swiftly every time. Big thanks to Blue Guardian for truly brightening this industry!

  • Randi Mertz
    2 years ago

    Customers may find some honesty here, but if you check their Discord chats, you’ll see a lot of complaints from traders who haven’t had success. Clear answers seem hard to come by, as the team often tries to steer you into purchasing accounts by saying something like, “Explore our accounts to learn more about us.” It’s a red flag. I strongly advise steering clear of this proprietary trading firm; it seems likely they won’t be around much longer.

  • Marlin Walsh
    2 years ago

    As a client of Blue Guardian, I encountered some significant challenges after purchasing their trading challenge just before the latest platform update. Since the update, I’ve been unable to log into my challenge, and unfortunately, I haven’t received any assistance. There’s no option to call for support, which adds to the frustration. Their email responses take an eternity, and when they do reply, the information provided is often incorrect or unhelpful. Eventually, they just stop responding altogether. Now, I’ve invested my money in a challenge that I can’t access at all. It’s quite disappointing and feels like a complete waste of funds.

  • Tess Stoltenberg
    2 years ago

    I faced an issue with my account that resulted in a significant loss. After reaching out to BG to explain my situation, the COO, Eric, stepped in to handle it. My account was reset to a date prior to the issue, which truly made a difference for me.

  • Tremaine Mayer
    2 years ago

    The pricing at this firm is appealing; however, my recent experience has left much to be desired. I purchased a $10,000 account and paid an additional $15 to use CTrader as my trading platform. I executed a trade with CTrader on a Friday, but come Monday, I found that the platform had been switched to MT5 without any prior notice. There was no email notification regarding this change—it was simply imposed on me. Given this lack of communication, I’m certainly not inclined to open another account with this firm.

  • Quentin Wisoky
    2 years ago

    I’ve just started using their services, and I must say, when I reached out to their support team, I got a reply almost instantly. From what I’ve observed about my friends who are currently under contract with this firm, the payouts appear to be quite prompt and seamless. As long as you adhere to their guidelines, there doesn’t seem to be any hitches.

  • Cathrine Parisian
    2 years ago

    I wish I could express an even lower opinion than the one I have now. I’ve never encountered a proprietary trading firm so intent on confusing and undermining its traders. The ever-shifting rules and brokers seem designed to work against us, making the trading experience quite frustrating. Transparency is non-existent; they rarely communicate effectively, leaving traders in the dark. Their support team, unfortunately, is not helpful at all, often disregarding inquiries completely. It honestly feels like a total scam.

    As for your response, it’s hard to swallow when you say you’d be willing to assist when my emails have been ignored.

  • Lilian Hammes
    2 years ago

    I recently joined Blue Guardian and opted for their $10,000 unlimited evaluation—my first foray into the world of proprietary trading firms. Initially, I was impressed with certain aspects, but I quickly noticed that the platform had some shortcomings. After only a few days of trading, things started off well; on a Monday, my account was up by about 3%, leaving just 5% to hit my first challenge goal. I had five active trades, all in the green, and it looked like I was on track to reach that goal relatively soon, if not by the end of the day, as I was already up several hundred dollars.

    To clarify, the first challenge for a $10,000 account is to grow it by 8% or make a profit of $800. At that point, I was around $250 in profit and was expecting to clear at least $300 that day when, out of the blue, my account was frozen and I could no longer execute trades. I reached out to support to explain the situation, watching my profits dwindle as I did. They assured me not to worry and that I’d be reimbursed.

    However, I later learned that they had migrated everyone to a new platform called Match Trader. Once I got that resolved, I inquired about reimbursement, only to find out that the support team thought I was still using DX Trader. They mentioned they had sent out an email to inform everyone of the switch, but I didn’t receive any of that communication.

    After looking into it, I discovered they did indeed send one email two days before the transition—a solitary email that, being new to Blue Guardian, landed in my spam folder. It came on a Saturday, with the switch happening the following Monday, which didn’t allow for much notice for a change of that magnitude. The email didn’t specify when the migration would occur or what the implications would be if deadlines weren’t met.

    What was I to do? It seems I’ll have to start over, which feels a bit unfair and somewhat unprofessional. Considering the management team’s backgrounds as presented in their bios, one might say they lack experience; they’re all quite young, probably between 18 and 24 at most.

    I’m not particularly happy with my experience thus far and definitely not impressed, but since I’ve invested in this process, I’m determined to push forward and see if the new platform works out for me. Would I recommend Blue Guardian? Probably not, but after venting my frustrations, I feel a bit better. I’m not one to back down easily, so I’ll give them another chance. However, you may want to consider looking into more established prop firms; I seriously doubt my experience would have unfolded this way with them. Good luck, and happy trading!

  • Emma Casper

    The firm excels at resolving issues quickly, thanks to their seamless communication on Discord. There are no delays, which makes the process even smoother. Their patience and willingness to help are also noteworthy qualities that enhance the overall experience.

  • Tianna Botsford
    2 years ago

    The Guardian Protector has truly been a game changer for me. Big props to the team for integrating this feature! Moreover, the firm’s transparency in their processes is commendable. I would definitely suggest it to my trading group.

  • Janick Quigley
    2 years ago

    This is a fantastic proprietary trading firm to work with. The experience I’ve had so far has been overwhelmingly positive. If you’re looking for a reliable place to hone your trading skills, I highly recommend giving them a try. Their support team is responsive, and they offer valuable resources for traders at all levels. Overall, it’s definitely one of the better choices in the market.

  • Salvatore Rodriguez
    2 years ago

    I found their customer service and payout times to be outstanding, easily deserving five stars. On the flip side, the trading conditions and the user interface of the dashboard fell short of expectations, warranting just three stars each. When I stepped back to look at the bigger picture, I settled on a four-star rating for the firm, which really reflects that there are certain areas where they could definitely enhance their offerings.

  • Kacey Langworth
    2 years ago

    The spread on EURUSD is around 5 points, which is quite excessive. When it comes to slippage on market order exits, the situation is really disappointing. For example, my take profit might get me out at about $200, but if I try to close out via market order, I might be lucky to see $140. I’ve been using Match Trader for my trading, and even while using it in combination with Funding Pips, I find Funding Pips to be much better overall. Blue Guardian, on the other hand, seems like just another broker aiming to undermine your profit and loss.

  • Johnathon Berge
    2 years ago

    Transactions are both easy and convenient, making the overall experience quite smooth. It’s refreshing to find a trading firm that prioritizes user-friendly processes. The simplicity in executing trades allows you to focus more on strategy rather than getting bogged down by complicated steps. Overall, it’s a hassle-free way to manage your transactions, which is a significant plus in the fast-paced trading world.

  • Letitia Conroy
    2 years ago

    Blue Guardian has a frustratingly slow order execution process. Meanwhile, I’m managing to make $900 on another account, while Blue Guardian has cost me a disappointing -$170. It’s really not a great experience. I can’t say I’d recommend this prop firm to anyone. Oddly enough, I keep finding myself drawn back to them…

  • Alysa Wehner
    2 years ago

    This firm has proven to be a scam, and their approach to customer treatment is downright disrespectful. I wouldn’t trust them at all. If you’re seeking a reliable trading experience, FTMO stands out as the top choice in the industry.

  • Elmo Crist
    2 years ago

    I’ve had issues with the take profit not executing, even though my buy/sell order did hit the same number as the take profit. I reached out to support, and while they agreed with my assessment, they just passed me on to the funded department without following up—super frustrating.

    There’s a strong reason why the United States discourages its citizens from trading with unregulated or white-label firms; you really end up in a tight spot. My advice? Stay away from this one if you value your trading experience.

  • Monty Jacobs
    2 years ago

    Blue Guardian is a trusted proprietary trading firm with excellent customer care. I’ve been really impressed with their dashboard, which is user-friendly and well-designed. This is actually my first prop firm experience, and I have to say, the $10,000 giveaway account has truly changed my life.

  • Antone Kilback
    2 years ago

    I didn’t reach my daily loss limit, yet they still breached my account. Additionally, DX trades ended a position that was only slightly in drawdown, resulting in a loss for me. It really feels like a scam. I contacted support, providing them with screenshots, but it’s been two weeks, and I still haven’t received a response. Honestly, it seems like forex prop trading is fading in the US. I’d recommend switching to futures instead.

  • Griffin McLaughlin
    2 years ago

    This firm stands out as one of the best in the market. Their support team is truly unmatched. After I experienced a software glitch, they promptly credited the live funds back to my account, which I really appreciated. However, I have noticed that at times, their trading platform can be less than reliable.

  • Jesse Raynor
    2 years ago

    Customer care seems decent, but the slippage can be excessively high. I configured a 3.8% setting on the guardian protector, but it didn’t function as expected. Despite setting a stop-loss tolerance of $300 to prevent hitting my daily maximum loss, it still triggered and caused my account to breach. This all occurred on a Friday when there were no major news events.

  • Derick Sporer
    2 years ago

    The support team here is fantastic and incredibly quick to respond. I received my credentials almost immediately after my payment was processed. The trading conditions are excellent—spreads are competitive and there are zero commissions on indices. Honestly, this is one of the best proprietary trading firms I’ve had the pleasure of working with.

  • Jasmin Keeling
    2 years ago

    The rules here are simply fantastic, and the support team is absolutely exceptional. I can’t emphasize enough how amazing they are! ❤️❤️

  • Cydney Parisian
    2 years ago

    I haven’t actually bought an account from Blue Guardian, but I was lucky enough to receive a giveaway account through their podcast focused on trading psychology. It took me roughly 44 days to scale that account, and I managed to reach payout within just 8 days of trading. Alhamdulillah, all praise to Allah!

  • Mark Pfannerstill
    2 years ago

    The spread is ridiculously bad, and the slippage is a real issue—definitely not even close to what I experience with my actual broker, IC Markets. I really recommend staying away from this firm; it feels like they’re doing everything they can to work against you, just to collect those evaluation fees.

  • Mariam Leuschke
    2 years ago

    My experience with this firm has been really disappointing. I was genuinely excited about the prospect of passing my account, but they seemed to have created trades that I never placed in the first place. It’s alarming to think about the trust we place in such companies. I recommend exercising caution if you’re considering working with them.

  • Lupe Goyette
    2 years ago

    Up to this point, my experience has been great, particularly with the customer service, which has been top-notch. BG stands out as one of the longest-running proprietary trading firms, and that history is a big reason why I have such confidence in them. I also want to give a special shoutout to Genesis—your assistance has been invaluable, and I truly appreciate it!

  • Althea Greenfelder
    2 years ago

    The customer service leaves much to be desired. I’ve been waiting for days to hear back about an issue I encountered on their trading platform. To make matters worse, the support team seemed to imply that the problem was actually my fault due to some supposed imperfections on the platform itself. Based on my experience, I cannot recommend doing business with this firm.

  • Santa Kozey
    2 years ago

    I haven’t been able to purchase this account. I’ve been raising this issue since March, and it’s still not resolved.

    Every time I click “OK” on the “order and confirm to payment” prompt, an error pops up.

    I have all the email correspondence as proof.

  • Al Schumm
    2 years ago

    This is my first experience, so I expect it to be a bit of a challenge. Thanks for your understanding!

  • Dean Borer

    One of the standout features of this proprietary trading firm is undoubtedly the Guardian Protector, launched by Blue Guardian. This innovative tool has been a game-changer for many novice traders striving to navigate the markets. It significantly aids in enhancing traders’ chances of succeeding in their challenges.

  • Peyton Kerluke
    2 years ago

    Blue Guardian started off on a decent note, but recent modifications have led me to look for alternatives in the prop firm space. The elimination of the Elite Challenge appears to be a strategy aimed at discouraging gamblers, yet as a swing trader, I find myself caught in the crossfire. Under their new guidelines, if I maintain a position for multiple days and hit my take profit target during a news event, I stand to lose those profits. This is quite an unfortunate decision on their part.

  • Kade Ritchie
    2 years ago

    Trading with Blue Guardian is definitely worth considering. They’ve been a consistent player in the proprietary trading firm landscape for quite some time now. Their presence on social media is quite vibrant, which shows their commitment to engaging with traders. Plus, if you reach out to them, you can expect quick responses, making communication seamless.

  • Gerald Yost
    2 years ago

    I’ve come across an overwhelming number of negative reviews, which honestly makes it tough for me to consider dealing with this company.

  • Anderson Greenholt
    2 years ago

    Blue Guardian suddenly prevented me from accessing Metatrader, which was quite frustrating. Now, I see it as an ineffective and disappointing proprietary trading firm. Honestly, I have no plans to engage with them again in the future.

  • Raphaelle Ortiz
    2 years ago

    Currently, this is one of the most reliable proprietary trading firms available. I’m in the process of starting a challenge with them.

  • Shaylee Greenholt
    2 years ago

    I have to say, this prop firm operates smoothly, and I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking to get involved. They really know what they’re doing and make the trading experience hassle-free.

  • Haylie Gislason

    Neon provides outstanding service, and I genuinely appreciate it!

  • Scarlett Beier

    I’m on the verge of opening an account with Blue Guardian, a proprietary trading firm that I believe I can rely on.

  • Nikita Sanford
    2 years ago

    I purchased an account yesterday, but I still haven’t received my login credentials. It’s frustrating not having access after making the investment. Hopefully, the support team will resolve this issue quickly.
