Quick answers

Lucid Trading vs Blue Guardian Futures FAQ

  • 01

    Which side should I trust more?

    Use the side with stronger source coverage and rules that match your market. TSB Fit Score is a shortlist signal, not a guarantee.

  • 02

    Can a promo code change the decision?

    It can change checkout price, but it should not override drawdown pressure, payout terms, country availability, or platform fit.

  • 03

    Why do some rows say verify?

    Prop firm plans and checkout rules change often. TSB marks incomplete rows instead of presenting incomplete data as final.
