- Flat 90% split from the start — not a paid upgrade or a performance tier

- Daily payouts from $250, no minimum trading days, rolling ~$9k/week cap
- Evaluation is a recurring monthly subscription; real capital sits behind a four-stage funnel
Blusky: the short version
- What it is: a US futures prop firm (BluSky Trading Company LLC, Clearwater, Florida) on Rithmic, Tradovate, NinjaTrader and Volumetrica. Simulated evaluation leading, over several stages, to a live brokerage account. $25k to $300k.
- The split: a flat 90% from day one — not a paid upgrade or a performance tier. Genuinely one of the cleaner splits in the futures space.
- The rule that defines it: instead of failing you for an outsized winning day, Blusky raises your profit target (a self-adjusting consistency rule). You are pushed to keep trading rather than knocked out.
- The catch: the evaluation is a recurring monthly subscription, not a one-off fee, and there is a four-stage funnel (Eval → BluLive → Sim Funded → Live Brokerage) with a $10k-per-account cap before you qualify for real capital.
- Payouts: daily, from $250, with no minimum trading days and no daily loss limit once funded — but a rolling seven-day payout cap (around $9k/week) applies.
- Best for: consistent futures traders who value a high flat split and daily payouts, and who would rather pay monthly than a big lump sum — provided they stop paying once funded.
Last reviewed: 15 July 2026. Checked against BluSky’s official rules, pricing and payout pages. Blusky is a simulated-account firm until the final Live Brokerage stage; treat any “real capital” marketing in that light and confirm current terms on the firm’s own pages before buying.
Company and regulation
Blusky is operated by BluSky Trading Company LLC, based in Clearwater, Florida. Like the rest of the US futures prop sector it is not regulated, and it carries the standard CFTC Rule 4.41 hypothetical-performance disclaimer. Evaluations run on simulated data across Rithmic, Tradovate, NinjaTrader and Volumetrica, and accounts stay simulated until the final Live Brokerage stage.
It is worth being clear-eyed about the “real capital” language in Blusky’s marketing: for most of the journey you are trading a simulated/educational account, and only the last stage places you on a live brokerage account. That is a legitimate model — but it is a funnel, not instant real money, and the four stages matter.
The rule that defines it: a target that moves instead of failing you
Most firms enforce a consistency rule by failing you if a single day is too large a share of your total profit — make 60% of your profit in one lucky session and the account is void. Blusky does something notably more humane: its consistency rule is self-adjusting. Rather than voiding the account when one day runs hot, the system simply raises your overall profit target so the big day no longer dominates the total.
The thresholds vary by plan — broadly a 34% best-day share on standard accounts, tighter (around 21%) on the largest 300K accounts, and looser (around 50%) on the Launch plan. The practical effect is the same across all of them: a strong day is not a landmine. You are asked to keep trading and prove the result was repeatable, instead of being knocked out for winning. For traders who have lost accounts to a single good session under rigid consistency caps, this is a genuinely trader-friendly design and the clearest reason to look at Blusky.
Split, payouts and drawdown
The split is a flat 90% — not a tier you climb to, not a paid add-on, and not reserved for the largest accounts. Combined with the payout terms this is Blusky’s second real strength: daily payouts from as little as $250, no minimum number of trading days, and no daily loss limit once funded.
The counterweight is a rolling seven-day payout cap of roughly $9,000 per week, so very large weeks are metered out over time rather than paid in one go. Drawdown is an end-of-day trailing model that locks once you reach a set buffer above your starting balance. Read your specific plan’s numbers, because they differ by account size.
The catch: a subscription and a four-stage funnel
Two things temper the strengths above. First, the evaluation is a recurring monthly subscription, not a one-time purchase — you keep paying each month until you pass, so a slow evaluation costs more the longer it runs. The sensible move is to stop the subscription the moment you are funded.
Second, funding is a four-stage funnel: Evaluation → BluLive → Sim Funded → Live Brokerage. Real capital only appears at the final Live Brokerage stage, and there is a $10,000-per-account qualification cap governing the move onto a live brokerage account. None of this is hidden, but anyone expecting to be trading real money the week they pass should reset that expectation.

Verdict
Blusky gets the headline economics right: a flat 90% split, daily payouts from $250, no minimum trading days, and a consistency rule that pushes you to keep trading rather than fails you for a good day. For a disciplined futures trader, that combination is genuinely attractive and hard to find elsewhere.
The trade-offs are structural rather than hidden. You pay a monthly subscription until you pass, real capital sits behind a four-stage funnel and a $10k qualification cap, and large weeks are throttled by a rolling seven-day payout limit. Treat it as what it is — a simulated funnel with unusually fair rules and a strong split — cancel the subscription the moment you are funded, and it is one of the more trader-friendly futures options available.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is Blusky regulated?
No. BluSky Trading Company LLC, based in Clearwater, Florida, is a proprietary trading firm and is not regulated. It carries the standard CFTC Rule 4.41 hypothetical-performance disclaimer, and its evaluations run on simulated data. Accounts remain simulated until the final Live Brokerage stage.
What is the Blusky profit split?
Blusky pays a flat 90% split from the start. It is not a performance tier you climb to or a paid upgrade, and it applies across account sizes, which makes it one of the cleaner splits in the futures prop sector.
How does the Blusky consistency rule work?
Instead of failing your account when a single day is too large a share of your total profit, Blusky raises your overall profit target so the big day no longer dominates. Thresholds are roughly a 34% best-day share on standard accounts, around 21% on the largest 300K accounts, and around 50% on the Launch plan. The effect is that a strong day pushes you to keep trading rather than voiding the account.
How often does Blusky pay out?
Payouts are available daily, from a minimum of $250, with no minimum number of trading days and no daily loss limit once funded. A rolling seven-day payout cap of roughly $9,000 per week applies, so very large weeks are paid out over time rather than all at once.
Does Blusky charge a monthly fee?
Yes. The Blusky evaluation is a recurring monthly subscription rather than a one-time purchase, so you keep paying each month until you pass. The sensible approach is to cancel the subscription as soon as you are funded to avoid paying for an account you no longer need to evaluate.
When do you trade real money with Blusky?
Only at the final stage. Blusky uses a four-stage funnel: Evaluation, then BluLive, then Sim Funded, then Live Brokerage. Real capital appears only at the Live Brokerage stage, and there is a $10,000-per-account qualification cap governing the move onto a live brokerage account.
What platforms does Blusky support?
Blusky supports Rithmic, Tradovate, NinjaTrader and Volumetrica, covering the major US futures trading platforms. You choose your platform when setting up your evaluation account.
