Compare firms
Two whole firms side by side: what each publishes across markets, platforms, fees, loss models, permissions and payouts. Rex describes differences and never declares a winner.
Comparing two purchasable plans instead? Compare challenges.
Futures firm whose evaluation publishes an end-of-day trailing drawdown alongside an explicit daily loss limit, on a monthly price with no activation fee.
Blue Guardian Futures is the futures line of Iconic Exchange FZCO, trading on MT5, Match-Trader, NinjaTrader, TradeLocker, TradingView, Tradovate and DeepCharts, with an indefinite maximum number of trading days. Account sizes and prices below are carried from the public directory.

Quick highlights
The differences most likely to change a decision, stated neutrally. Rex names no winner, because which of these matters depends entirely on how you trade.
Market
Top One FuturesFutures
Blue Guardian FuturesFutures
Both operate in the same market, so their published rules use comparable units.
Entry price
Top One FuturesFutures · USD · monthly · $178/mo
Blue Guardian FuturesFutures · USD · one-time · $64
Entry price is the advertised figure only. Activation and reset charges are recorded separately and often decide the real cost.
Profit split (base)
Top One Futures90%
Blue Guardian Futures90%
A published base share is a commitment. A ceiling with no stated base is not, and Rex records it as not published rather than as the headline number.
Choice of plans
Top One Futures4 options
Blue Guardian Futures16 options
More options means more chance of a size and structure that suits you; it says nothing about the quality of any single plan.
Evaluation structures
Top One Futures1-step
Blue Guardian FuturesInstant · 1-step
One-step and two-step evaluations distribute the same difficulty differently. Neither is easier as a rule.
Evidence coverage
Top One Futures74% documented
Blue Guardian Futures65% documented
This measures how much of each firm Rex could source, not how good the firm is. A lower figure means less was published, not worse terms.
What the split difference is actually worth
Your assumptions, each firm's published split. Not a forecast, and not a reason on its own to pick either firm.
A 8% return on $100,000 is $8,000 gross per cycle, before each firm’s split.

This is arithmetic on your own assumptions, not a forecast. It ignores the thing that actually decides the outcome — whether you can reach a payout at all under each firm’s loss limit — and it ignores activation fees, resets and trading costs. Use it to see how much the split difference is worth, then go and read the drawdown model.

Change history
Terms change quietly. Each change is recorded only when two accepted observations differ; an empty list is the honest state for a first-seen record.

Top One Futures and Blue Guardian Futures are described here from what each publishes. Where a field is blank for one firm and filled for the other, that is a difference in disclosure rather than a difference in quality.
