Maven BNPL Trails Until the First Withdrawal; Blue Guardian Splits Nano

This is a 24 October 2026 rule check for FindBestProp. It follows the 23 October note. Two cataloged firms changed a funded-account rule. One cataloged firm changed a login instruction. No firm published a new sized account with a fee, so no challenge row was added.

Maven: BNPL funded loss trails until the first withdrawal

The Maven FAQ still splits the Buy Now Pay Later book into two stages. The evaluation did not move. The Simulated Funded Account did.

The page’s example: a $10,000 funded account grows to $10,800, the trader withdraws $600, and $200 of room is left. A second example, before any withdrawal: equity at $11,000 lifts the 8% floor to $10,120. Falling through that level breaches the account.

The evaluation fee on every stored size is still $5, from the $2K through the $100K. The $10,000 pre-split cap from the 21 October note still covers this program. Funded requests have no fixed waiting period once the consistency score is 20% or lower. OMO and ETERNAL were not on this FAQ fetch. Affiliate checkout stays on the Maven partner link.

Why an open winner can shrink the cushion

The trail uses running equity, not the last closed balance. A long that is $1,000 green marks a higher floor even if you never close it. Give that trade back, and the account can breach on profit you have not banked. The first withdrawal is the switch. After it, the floor is the starting balance and open profit no longer walks the max-loss line up. The 4% day still can.

Blue Guardian: Nano is off the 90% add-on

The payout article prints Updated today. Yesterday’s check used the 21 October modification. The split list is shorter, and Nano is no longer paired with Instant Standard.

The 90% add-on is bought at checkout, and only on eligible non-Nano accounts. The article still does not print a Nano size, a fee, or a drawdown. No Nano row was added. Partner findbestprop stays 25%. Affiliate checkout stays on the Blue Guardian partner link.

The 2 Step Pro rules page also prints Updated today. Targets stay 10% then 4%. Daily loss stays 4% of the initial balance, reset at 5 p.m. EST. If the account is flat at that reset, the day’s floor is the closed balance minus 4% of the starting balance. The trailing max loss is 10% of the highest closed-trade watermark. It locks at the starting balance once profit reaches 10% of the initial balance, and a 1% buffer then has to stay in on a withdrawal. Stored rows, including the $100K 2 Step Pro, now say that. The funded split on this legacy page is still 85%, or 90% with the add-on. That is not the Nano 100% line.

How the add-on choice hits a payout

A 1 Step or 2 Step account that is not Nano still needs the 90% box to leave 85%. Nano does not get that box. Its 100% line is a different checkout add-on, and the page still does not say what the account costs. Instant Starter cannot be raised at all, and the first payout is also the last, capped at $250 before the 3% processing fee.

Topstep: TopstepX no longer shares the dashboard password

The troubleshooting article prints Updated today. Usernames and passwords are case-sensitive. TopstepX credentials are emailed with each account purchase. The page says to check spam. It no longer says those credentials are the ones used for the Topstep Dashboard.

Combine targets, payout caps, and the Labs table were not rewritten on this pass. There is still no public coupon. A dashboard password change does not, on this article, update TopstepX. Affiliate buttons stay on the Topstep partner link.

Tradeify Perps is a banner, not a sized account

tradeify.co now leads with Sign up for Tradeify Perps: “Trade 24/7. Static drawdown. Uncapped payouts.” The homepage does not print a size, a fee, a static percent, or a payout calendar for that product. Tradeify futures is not in the comparator. No Perps row was added.

The 25K evaluation card on the same page still shows $359 to $251. The 17 October note already had GEMS at 30% through 31 October, 11:59 p.m. EST. This pass did not treat that date as a new extension.

Rechecks that did not add a challenge

• FTMO. The trading-updates index still leads with 22 October. No new note and no new size.
• FundedNext. Flex still requires 5 benchmark days and $500 of cycle profit. That line is already on FNFLEX. Cards were not re-priced.
• Apex. The coupon page still prints SAVENOW at 90% off new evaluations. Schema dateModified is 17 July 2026. Resets and PA fees are excluded. Apex is not in the comparator.
• Earn2Trade. No new homepage offer replaced yesterday’s BOTH50 note.
