Blue Guardian Sets an 80% Default; FundedNext Lists Payout Blocks

This is a 19 October 2026 promo and rule check for FindBestProp. It follows the 17 October note. One CFD payout page moved a default split. One futures withdrawal page carries a 17 October timestamp that was not in that note. No firm published a new account size with a fee.

Blue Guardian puts 2 Step Nano on the 80% line

Blue Guardian edited How do payouts work?. Schema dateModified is 18 October 2026, 23:19 UTC. The page prints Updated today on this fetch.

The default line now reads Instant Standard Accounts & 2 Step Nano: 80%. The rest of that list:

The add-on is bought at checkout on eligible types. The article does not print a Nano size, a fee, or a drawdown. No Nano row was added to the catalog. Stored Instant fees did not move. Partner findbestprop stays 25%. Affiliate checkout stays on the Blue Guardian partner link.

Why the default matters if you skip the add-on

An Instant Standard account without the add-on keeps 80 cents of each reward dollar. The same account with the add-on keeps 90. That is a fee at purchase against a thinner reward later. Price the add-on against the rewards you actually expect to request, not against the headline split on a different product. Instant Starter is already 90% and the page marks it fixed.

FundedNext Flex fees hold; the withdrawal gate is on the card

FundedNext Flex still prints SAVE UP TO 47% WITH CODE FNFLEX. The dollars match the 17 October cards. Comparator rows for Flex 50K, Flex 100K, and Flex 150K stay on those totals. Checkout stays on the existing FundedNext partner link.

The 50K challenge block still prints a $2,500 target, a $1,500 end-of-day max loss, no daily loss limit, 40% consistency, a $82.99 reset, and 3 minis or 30 micros. The funded block on the same page is a different rule set:

FNFLEX does not apply to Stellar, Rapid, or Labs. STRTN is a different coupon. Do not stack it with partner FINDBESTPR at 7%.

How a flat day changes the first reward

The challenge consistency rule is still 40%. The funded block says None. Passing does not retire the day count. A Flex 50K still needs five days at $200 and $500 in the cycle before a Performance Reward. A single $500 day can clear the cycle profit and still leave you short four benchmark days.

Futures bank transfer stops in 22 countries

The Futures withdrawal article has schema dateModified 17 October 2026, 09:44 UTC. Methods on the page: USDT (ERC20, TRC20), USDC (ERC20), RiseWorks, Card, Bank Transfer, and direct deposit to FNmarkets. Bank transfer minimum is $1,000. Bank-transfer requests are not eligible for the Brand Promise.

Bank transfer is not available as a Performance Reward method in these 22 countries: Armenia, Nicaragua, Azerbaijan, Pakistan, Barbados, Mozambique, Botswana, Senegal, Cambodia, Tanzania, Central African Republic, Trinidad and Tobago, Ghana, Tunisia, Guinea, Turkmenistan, Haiti, Uganda, Jamaica, Kyrgyzstan, Vanuatu, Zimbabwe.

The next heading is Card Transfer Country Restrictions. The sentence under it still says bank transfer, and the list is different: Barbados, Korea, Benin, Mozambique, Bolivia, Zambia, El Salvador, Palau, Ethiopia, Pitcairn, Guernsey, Zimbabwe. Read the heading and the sentence as two lines that do not match. Use the rail the cart actually offers.

FTMO: HK50 is shut today, and the $100K deals did not move

FTMO has no trading update newer than 15 October. Homepage dateModified is still 15 October 2026, 12:59 UTC. The pricing object still discounts two $100K rows, and only if you do not already have one active:

There is still no coupon box. Instant $5K stays €169. Trading Objectives is still dateModified 12 October 2026.

The 8 October CFD update still closes HK50.cash for the whole Monday 19 October 2026 session, for the Chung Yeung Festival. That is a closed market, not a new drawdown rule. A stop on that symbol cannot work while the market is shut. The 15 October update still sets the later clock: from 26 October through 1 November, Max Daily Loss resets on Prague midnight, 2 hours from MetaTrader midnight.

Rechecks that did not add a challenge
