What is the 40% consistency rule?

The consistency rule states that a single day cannot represent more than 40% of the total required profit.

For example, if the target is $3,000:

40% of $3,000 = $1,200

If the trader earns:

  • Day 1: +$1,200
  • Day 2: +$900
  • Day 3: +$900

The total profit is $3,000 and the best day represents exactly 40%. The rule is met.

If a day represents more than 40%, the trader can continue generating profit until that day represents 40% or less of the total profit.

Important: the consistency rule applies during the FLEX evaluation and during the funded account for both FLEX and PRO. It does not apply during the PRO evaluation.
