What is Consistency rule

A cap on the best day's share of total profit — for example, no more than 30–50%. It stops you passing the evaluation on one lucky trade.

How it works

Example

Profit $6,000, best day $3,600 — that is 60%. Under a 40% rule you need $3,000 more from other days: 3,600 ÷ 9,000 = 40%.

Common mistake

Learning about the rule at payout time instead of before the first trade.
