🛡️ What Is the Consistency Rule?
The Consistency Rule is a safeguard that applies during the funded stage. It ensures traders maintain a stable and sustainable approach instead of relying on a single high-risk trade to achieve most of their profits.
🧠 Key Concepts
Concept | Details |
Purpose | Encourages long-term, consistent trading performance across multiple days. |
When It Applies | - Only in the funded stage (not during evaluation) |
🧮 How It's Calculated
Formula:
Consistency % = (Most Profitable Day / Total Profit) × 100
🔢 Example
Scenario:
Total Profit = $1,000
Most Profitable Day = $350Calculation:
(350 / 1000) × 100 = 35%
📈 Since 35% is below the 40% threshold, the trader can request a payout.
⚠️ Exceeding the Threshold
If your most profitable day makes up more than 40% of total profits:
❌ You won’t fail the account.
🔄 But you must continue trading until the ratio falls below 40% to request a withdrawal.
💡 In Case of Drawdown
The rule still applies when your account is in drawdown.
Profits are calculated from the initial account equity, not the current balance.
Any recovery of losses is not counted as new profits.
