The Consistency Rule ensures that trading performance is stable and not reliant on a single large trading day. It applies only to funded accounts.
How the 40% rule works
Your largest single trading day must not exceed 40% of your total profits in your current payout cycle.
Formula: Consistency % = (Largest winning day ÷ Total profit) × 100. This value must be 40% or less.
Example | Total profit | Largest winning day | Consistency | Result |
Valid | $5,000 | $2,000 | 40% | Valid |
Violation | $4,000 | $2,200 | 55% | Not valid |
When the rule applies
The consistency rule is checked when you submit a payout request, based on your current total profit at that moment.
How to get below the 40% mark
If your account exceeds the 40% limit, continue trading to increase your total profit, which reduces the percentage impact of your largest winning day.
Example: your largest day is $2,000. To be compliant (40% or less), your total profit must be at least $5,000.
Good to know
Applies only to funded accounts.
Applies only to profitable days.
Based on closed trades only.
Recalculated continuously as your profit changes.
After a payout is taken, your total profits reset and the consistency rule starts again based on new profits moving forward.
Your largest winning day may never be more than 40% of the total profit in your current payout cycle. If it is, keep trading until it is.
