Blueberry Markets is the latest broker to indicate the end of its support to prop trading firms. Multiple prop trading firms, including MyFundedFX, Funded Nation, and Funded Engineer, have confirmed that the broker has informed them to set all existing accounts to close only.
The decision was made a day after the Australia-headquartered broker ordered the prop trading firms using its service to suspend onboarding new clients on MetaTrader platforms. The latest action indicates that Blueberry is ending its support entirely to prop trading firms.

Finance Magnates approached Blueberry Markets for official confirmation but did not receive any response as of press time.
“Blueberry recently passed the news down that ALL active Blueberry accounts must be off of the platform by the end of the week, and any existing accounts will soon be set to close positions only where you can not open any new positions,” a tweet from by MyFundexFX noted.
The prop trading firm further highlighted:, “These decisions come directly as a result of forceful action from 3rd party providers.” Although the company did not take any name of third-party providers, the only one in question here is MetaTrader, developed by MetaQuotes.
Earlier, MetaQuotes allegedly forced the license holders of MetaTrader to end support to US-based prop trading customers.

A Top Service Provider to Prop Trading Firms
Blueberry is one of the few brokerages offering prop trading firms' services, especially grey-label trading platforms.

Earlier, Axi, another Australia-headquartered broker that offers prop trading services, cited the latest crackdown in the industry to question the business model of demo account prop trading, calling it “the beginning of an end.”
