The consistency rule is designed to ensure that your profits are made steadily over time, rather than from just one or two oversized trading days. It promotes disciplined, repeatable trading behavior.
In this case, the rule states that no single trading day can account for more than 35% of your total profit throughout trading your funded account. IF this is breached, your payout will be denied, however you need to continue to trade for a minimum of 14 days before requesting another payout.
This also applies to lot sizes, using consistent lot sizes and avoiding rapid shifts in positing sizing as by doing so demonstrates a lack of a stable and repeatable trading strategy.
Example:
Let's say you end the challenge with a total profit of $10,000.
- 35% of $10,000 is $3,500.
- This means that no single day’s profit can exceed $3,500.
- If one of your trading days had a profit of $4,000, you would violate the consistency rule - even if all other challenge rules were met
