How does the consistency rule work?

Consistency rule

The consistency rule keeps your profits steady instead of coming from one oversized day. It always applies in Standard accounts and goes away once you reach LIVE status.

The Rule in One Sentence

No single trading day can represent more than 20% of your payout threshold.

  • If you stay under the daily limit: your threshold stays the same

  • If you go over the daily limit: your threshold recalculates upward, and you must earn more before withdrawing

Daily Max Profit Limits (20% Rule)

These are the maximum profits you can make in a single day while staying consistent.

Account Payout Threshold Daily Max
25K $1,500 $300
50K $3,000 $600
100K $6,000 $1,200
150K $9,000 $1,800

How the Threshold Recalculates

When you exceed the daily limit, your new payout threshold is calculated using this formula:

New Threshold = Best Single Day's Profit ÷ 0.20

The system looks at your highest profit day across your entire account history and sets your threshold so that day represents exactly 20% of what you need to earn total.

Example: If your best day was $1,800 on a 100K account: $1,800 ÷ 0.20 = $9,000 new threshold

Your threshold will continue to update any time a new best day is recorded. It is always driven by your single highest profit day — not by accumulating overages.

Examples

Example 1 — Following the Rule

You have a 50K account with a $600 daily max.

  • Day 1: +$220

  • Day 2: +$140

  • Day 3: +$180

All days are under $600, so your best day is $220. $220 ÷ 0.20 = $1,100 — below the base threshold of $3,000, so the threshold stays at $3,000. Your consistency is clean and you remain eligible for payout once other requirements are met.

Example 2 — Breaking the Rule

You have a 100K account with a $1,200 daily max.

  • Day 1: +$850

  • Day 2: +$1,350 ← over the limit

Day 2 becomes your new best day. $1,350 ÷ 0.20 = $6,750 new threshold

You now need $6,750 in total profit before you can request a payout — up from the original $6,000.

Important: Even though your threshold increased, your daily cap stays at $1,200. The cap never rises. You must continue trading within the original limit while working toward the higher target.

Minimum Payout Reminder

The minimum payout request is $150. This means you need at least $300 above your threshold before a withdrawal becomes available (since the maximum withdrawal is 50% of profit above threshold).

Easiest Way to Remember It

Your threshold is always set by your best day. Keep your best day at or below the daily limit and your threshold never moves. Exceed the limit even once and your threshold rises to match — and stays there until you reach LIVE status.
