Evaluations

The Consistency Rule on Standard and Advanced Evaluations is 50%. This means that during your Evaluation, profits from one single trading day cannot be larger than 50% of your net profits made.

You will not pass your Evaluation until this rule is satisfied. Your largest day cannot be more than half of your net profit.

While we don't recommend trying to pass your Evaluation as fast as possible. Below are the suggested largest/best days to satisfy the consistency rule as efficiently as possible on the Standard and Advanced Accounts.

Qualified Accounts

There is a 40% Consistency Rule on Standard and Zero Qualified Accounts however.

The 40% Consistency Rule states during the Qualified stage, profits from any single trading day cannot be greater than or equal to 40% of net profits accumulated.

You will not be eligible for a payout if any of your trading day profits are greater than 40% of net profits made. This value will always be visible in your dashboard, and your payout button/feature will not be available until this rule is satisfied.

This rule resets in between each account withdrawal request.

If you make more than 40% in a single day, your account will NOT be breached, but you will need to continue to trade and make more profit until the rule is satisfied.

The equation is as follows: biggest day/total net profit = 40%

There is NO Consistency Rule on Advanced Qualified Accounts.
