Orion Funded, Blueberry Funded vs Atlas Funded: Compared
By Tomas Rieder
·
Atlas Funded, Blueberry Funded, and Orion Funded all launched or restructured in 2025-2026. Each claims 1:100 leverage, commission-based pricing, and access to major instruments. But the firms split on platform choice, max allocation, payout timing, and challenge format. This comparison strips out the marketing to compare what actually moves the needle for active traders: cost per lot, drawdown caps, profit split, and how fast you can pull money out.

How we evaluate
This comparison evaluates Atlas Funded, Blueberry Funded, and Orion Funded across six dimensions: commission per lot, platform count and quality, maximum account size, published drawdown rules, payout methods and frequency, and transparency of challenge terms. All figures, commission ($3, $4, $6 per lot), account sizes ($200K, $2M), leverage (1:100), spreads (0 pips on Atlas select platforms, 0.06 pips minimum on Blueberry), and payout examples, are sourced directly from each firm's official website, help center, and published materials as of January 2026. Where firms don't publish data (e.g., Orion's payout frequency, Atlas's challenge rules, typical spreads for all instruments), we flag it "not publicly stated" rather than guessing. The analysis is skeptical of marketing claims and prioritizes verifiable, specific terms you can act on immediately.

Methodology and data freshness
We pulled official pricing pages, help-center docs, and published rules from each firm's website. Commission per lot, max account sizes, leverage ratios, payout methods, and challenge terms all come straight from those catalogs. Where a firm doesn't publish something, like typical EUR/USD spreads for all three, or complete challenge rules for Orion, we flag it "not publicly stated." Affiliate discounts and promo periods change constantly, so verify any code on the firm's site before you buy. Data refreshed January 2026.
Pricing and account sizes
Atlas Funded
Atlas charges $3 per lot. Purchased accounts have no withdrawal cap. The firm advertises promo codes: "JULY" and "NEW" knock off 50%, "TRADELOCKER15" gives 15%. Confirm availability before checkout.
Max allocation hits $2 million. Atlas offers a "Weekly Payout Add-On" (payouts every 7 days after the first 21) and an "On Demand Payout Add-On" (immediate first payout, then 14-day cycles). Both apply to specific account types and cost… something. The public materials don't say; you'll need to ask support.
Blueberry Funded
Blueberry charges $6 per lot, double Atlas. That's a problem if you're running size or flipping 50 trades a week. The Elite Account runs $10,000 purchase plus $400 challenge fee. You get a 1-step challenge, 1:30 leverage, 10% profit target, 2% daily drawdown, 10% max drawdown, 80% split, biweekly payouts.
Max size also reaches $2 million. Promo codes: "PRIME30" (30% off), "TRADELOCKER15" (15% off). Biweekly payouts work better for swing traders than day traders chasing weekly cash.
Orion Funded
Orion charges $4 per lot. Max allocation stops at $200,000, ten times smaller than the other two.
Affiliate discounts come via "DRIFT," "NEW50," and "WHAT20" (20% off). But Orion doesn't publish typical spreads, challenge fees, or detailed challenge rules beyond "EAs and copy trading allowed." Contact support before you commit anything.
Cost bottom line: Atlas is cheapest per lot and lets purchased accounts withdraw unlimited amounts, best for volume traders. Blueberry's $6 commission hurts scalpers, but at least the rules are transparent. Orion sits in the middle at $4 but caps you at $200K and publishes almost nothing.
Evaluation rules
Atlas Funded
Atlas doesn't publish its challenge rules. The firm pushes "purchased accounts" with no withdrawal limits, which suggests you skip the challenge phase. "Two-step accounts" and "Instant Funded accounts" get mentioned, but the catalog doesn't spell out profit targets, drawdown caps, or whether purchased accounts really bypass evaluation.
For giveaway or collaborator accounts, the first payout lands 14 days after your first trade (two-step) or 28 days (Instant Funded), then every 14 or 28 days after that. These exclude premium conditions, whatever that means.
Editor note: Atlas's challenge path is murky. You'll have to ask support for profit targets, daily/max drawdown, and whether purchased accounts skip evaluation entirely.
Blueberry Funded
Blueberry publishes explicit rules for the Elite Account: 1-step, 10% profit target, 2% daily drawdown, 10% max drawdown. That transparency is rare, but it also means the rules are tight. Detailed terms for other account sizes? Not published.
The 2% daily cap is tight. The 10% max gives you breathing room but demands discipline after one bad day.
Orion Funded
Orion doesn't publish challenge rules or drawdown limits. The site says it supports "trading talent, whether manual or powered by Expert Advisors," but there's no evaluation path spelled out. Compared to Blueberry, this is a transparency black hole.
Takeaway: Blueberry is the only firm with verifiable, published challenge rules. Atlas needs you to call support for details. Orion's opacity makes preliminary due diligence nearly impossible.
Drawdown and risk rules
Blueberry Funded (only firm with published rules)
The Elite Account locks you to a 2% daily drawdown and 10% max drawdown. Tight.
A single 2% loss-per-day stops your trading for that session. Hit the 10% max and you're done.
For active intraday traders, this is restrictive. Risk management becomes non-negotiable; you'll need tight stops on every position.
Atlas Funded and Orion Funded
Neither publishes drawdown rules. Atlas talks up "purchased accounts" but doesn't specify risk parameters. Orion's rules are invisible.
You must confirm drawdown limits and daily loss caps via support before depositing a dime. This opacity is a structural problem compared to Blueberry's published terms.
Payouts and profit split
Atlas Funded
Atlas allows "no withdrawal limits" for purchased accounts, an edge if you're profitable. The firm processes payouts through the widest menu of options among these three.
Payout frequency varies. Standard giveaway/collaborator accounts pay every 14 or 28 days. Add-ons enable weekly or on-demand payouts. Profit split? Not stated; support confirmation required.
Atlas cites concrete payouts: Mehedi Rahman pulled $13,720.20 twice, which suggests consistent execution.
Blueberry Funded
Blueberry offers an 80% profit split on the Elite Account and biweekly payouts. Methods include Crypto, Withdrawal, Bank Transfer, E Wallet, Rise Pay. The firm claims large payouts but doesn't clarify whether that's aggregate or from one trader.
Biweekly is slower than weekly add-ons but faster than 28-day cycles. For day traders, the 80% split is generous inside those tight drawdown walls.
Orion Funded
Orion processes payouts through fewer methods than Atlas. The firm cites payouts from May 2024 ranging from $12,000 to $72,914 but doesn't state frequency, profit split percentage, or withdrawal limits.
Payout bottom line: Atlas offers the most methods and unlimited withdrawals on purchased accounts. Blueberry's 80% split and biweekly cycle work for steady earners. Orion's terms are unclear; call support.
Trading platforms and instruments
Atlas Funded
Atlas supports eight platforms: TradeLocker, MetaTrader 5, Match-Trader, Volumetrica, cTrader, MetaTrader 4, DXtrade, TradingView. That breadth appeals to traders with workflow lock-in or platform preferences.
EAs and copy trading are allowed. EUR/USD spreads are listed as 0 typical pips on multiple platforms for raw spread accounts. Zero spreads reduce cost for high-volume traders.
Atlas covers Forex, Commodities, Indices, Crypto, Equities, Stocks, Futures, Metals.
Blueberry Funded
Blueberry offers five platforms: TradeLocker, TradingView, thinkorswim, NinjaTrader, MetaTrader 5. Solid lineup, smaller than Atlas. ThinkorSwim and NinjaTrader appeal to US-focused and options traders.
EAs and copy trading supported. Minimum spreads are listed as 0.06 pips; typical spreads aren't specified. The $6 per lot commission offsets any spread edge.
Instruments: Currencies, Options, Stocks, Forex, Indices, Commodities, Crypto.
Orion Funded
Orion is MetaTrader 5 only. Simple if you're already on MT5, but you get zero platform choice. EA and copy trading permitted.
Commission is $4 per lot. Instruments: Forex, Indices, Metals, Commodities, Stocks, Crypto, Oil, Dollar (DXY), Equities, Bonds.
Platform bottom line: Atlas wins for multi-platform traders. Blueberry suits options traders. Orion is fine if you're committed to MetaTrader 5.
Trust, transparency, and restrictions
Atlas Funded
Atlas launched in 2025. Its strength: published payout examples and multiple withdrawal methods. Weakness: vague challenge rules and account types.
The Help Center (https://help.atlasfunded.com/en/) provides some clarity but skips key evaluation criteria.
Blueberry Funded
Blueberry launched in 2026 and has industry awards on the shelf. Published Elite Account rules show transparency. But detailed terms for other account sizes are missing, and the large payout claim lacks context.
Help center: https://help.blueberryfunded.com/en/.
Orion Funded
Orion started in 2025. The firm lists multiple awards but publishes minimal info on challenge rules or payout frequency. Low transparency is a red flag.
Trust bottom line: Blueberry publishes the most detailed rules. Atlas offers payout proof but murky challenge terms. Orion's lack of transparency requires you to contact support for nearly everything.

Atlas Funded wins for cost and flexibility; Blueberry Funded wins for transparency and rule clarity.
Atlas Funded and Blueberry Funded are the stronger picks for day traders in 2026. Atlas excels for high-frequency traders and anyone who values fast payouts and low commissions ($3 per lot). Unlimited payouts on purchased accounts suit traders who pull cash out regularly.
Blueberry Funded is best if you prioritize rule clarity and risk management. Published Elite Account terms eliminate ambiguity and cut the odds of blowing up due to hidden rules. ThinkorSwim support and options trading appeal to derivatives-focused traders.
Orion Funded works for traders already committed to MetaTrader 5. The lack of published challenge rules and payout frequency is a significant transparency gap.
For day traders: Pick Atlas Funded if cost and payout speed matter most. Pick Blueberry Funded if you want clear rules and can work within a 2% daily drawdown. Avoid Orion Funded unless MetaTrader 5 is mandatory and you don't mind contacting support for basic terms.
Frequently asked questions
Which firm is cheapest for a day trader executing 50 trades per week?
Atlas Funded at $3 per lot. Over 50 weekly trades (100 round trips), Atlas costs you $300 per week; Blueberry runs $600; Orion costs $400. For an active day trader, Atlas saves $15,600 per year versus Blueberry and $10,400 versus Orion. But Blueberry's Elite Account lays out exact drawdown rules, which cuts blow-up risk, so the higher commission might pay for itself if you're unfamiliar with Atlas's terms.
Can I withdraw profits every week?
Atlas Funded has a "Weekly Payout Add-On" that enables payouts every 7 days after a 21-day initial hold (so weekly from day 22 onward). Blueberry Funded pays biweekly (every 14 days). Orion Funded doesn't publish payout frequency. If weekly cash flow is critical, Atlas's add-on is the only confirmed path, but the cost of that add-on isn't stated publicly.
Which firm has the loosest drawdown rules?
Blueberry Funded is the only one publishing drawdown rules (2% daily, 10% max). Atlas Funded doesn't state its rules publicly; purchased accounts may differ from evaluation accounts. Orion Funded doesn't publish drawdown limits at all. If tight drawdown rules worry you, Atlas and Orion are question marks, contact support before joining.
Do I need MetaTrader 5, or can I use another platform?
Atlas Funded supports eight platforms (TradeLocker, MT5, Match-Trader, Volumetrica, cTrader, MT4, DXtrade, TradingView), providing broad flexibility. Blueberry supports five (TradeLocker, TradingView, thinkorswim, NinjaTrader, MT5). Orion Funded requires MetaTrader 5 exclusively. If you use NinjaTrader or thinkorswim, Blueberry is your only option here.
Are Expert Advisors allowed?
Yes. All three firms allow EAs (Atlas excludes HFT EAs). Copy trading is permitted on all three. If your strategy depends on algorithmic execution, there are no restrictions among these firms.
Which firm should I avoid if I'm a scalper?
Blueberry Funded's 2% daily drawdown is punishing for scalpers, one 2% loss-per-day halts trading for that session, forcing wait-out periods. Atlas and Orion don't publish daily limits, so contact them directly if you scalp. Blueberry's $6 commission also damages scalp profitability. Scalpers should lean toward Atlas or Orion and verify daily drawdown limits before funding.
