Performance & Distribution Clarification

The monthly percentages represent historical performance calculated on a compounded basis.

Educational Logic:

The demonstration account grows naturally without monthly resets. The fixed reference capital of 200,000 acts as the benchmark for internal participation logic.

Applied Monthly Logic Example

Month Start Base End Equity Status Distribution
M1 200,000 180,000 Recovery Phase 0
M2 180,000 198,000 Recovery Phase 0
M3 198,000 210,000 Distribution Phase 10,000
M4 200k (Reset) 205,000 Distribution Phase 5,000
Educational Note:
* Below 200,000, the account is in Recovery Phase. * Above 200,000, only excess amounts are distributable performance. * Participation Units (Marbles) remain unchanged even during negative performance months. Since distributions are non-negative (zero rather than a deduction), your educational access and participation levels stay anchored.
Performance compounds. Participation stays anchored.

The Framework
Reference Capital is the fixed benchmark (set at 200,000) used for all internal participation adjustment calculations.
The Recovery Phase occurs if the simulated account value falls below the 200,000 baseline. Positive performance is used to restore the base before participation adjustments resume.
Reference Marbles are educational units representing your participation level within the simulated demonstration environment.
Performance & Distributions
At Blue Marble, our dashboard displays your Education Net Performance based on yesterday's performance reference. However, when you view our verified track record on Myfxbook, you are looking at the entire historical journey of the educational account.

Compounded vs. Simple Educational Growth
Myfxbook (Compounded): The percentage you see at the top of Myfxbook is compounded. This means it calculates growth on top of growth over the lifetime of the account.
Blue Marble Dashboard (Daily): Your dashboard focuses on the most recent 24-hour cycle. It shows the performance reference for that specific day, rather than the lifetime accumulation.
Your distribution is calculated as: (Participation Units × Monthly Performance %) × Your Participation Ratio. Note that distributions are only triggered on positive illustrative performance.
If performance is negative, your Marble balance remains exactly the same. No units are deducted from your base, and the distribution for that month is zero.
All positive monthly performance references generated within the participation cycle are processed and paid within 3–5 business days at the start of each month.
Example: With 1,000 Marbles and a +20% educational growth at an 80/20 ratio: 1,000 × 20% = 200. Your 80% share is 160 Marbles (paid out), while your base balance remains 1,000.
Participation Exit
If you decide to end your participation, you may submit a Buy-Back Request for your internal units. These requests are generally processed within 5–7 business days.
Any remaining balance from your participation is typically fulfilled within 3–5 business days at the start of each month.
Yes. All redemptions are subject to a 5% administrative processing fee to cover the internal management of the ledger and participation records.
Participation is always discretionary. However, surrendering your Marbles closes your current performance reference point. Re-entry would be subject to the current membership access fees and eligibility requirements.
