No single day may account for more than 50% of your total profit. If one day produced more than half of the result, a payout request does not meet the conditions on the trading rules page, however large the total is. The rule never fails an account, though. It only makes the pass or the payout wait.
Key takeaways
- It applies in the evaluation, where the pass waits, and on the funded account, where the payout request waits.
- It never fails the account. It holds things back until profit is spread across more days.
- Exactly half is within the rule. The site bans a day that exceeds 50%.
- More profit on other days lowers the share of your best day. Losing days can raise it.
- The rules page states the aim in plain words: it stops a single day carrying the whole result.
What the rule says, word for word
The rule appears twice on the rules page. In the Activity and consistency table, with the value 50%: no single day may make up more than this share of total profit. The same line adds that it never fails the account: in an evaluation the pass waits, and on a funded account the payout request waits, until profit is spread across more days. And in the list of payout conditions: "No single day accounts for more than 50% of total profit."
That makes it the one exception in the rule tables. Every other rule on the page fails the account when it is breached. This one does not.
The section heading gives the reason. The activity and consistency rules exist to stop a dormant account and to stop "a single day carrying the whole result". That is the only reason the site gives, so it is the only one this article repeats.
Your account is a Simulated Demo Trading Account, a digital product and not a financial one. Rewards are paid on its simulated profit, and the consistency rule is one of the conditions that decides when a request can go in.
A worked example on a €100,000 account
Every payout request needs profit of at least 10% of the account size. On a €100,000 funded account that is €10,000. Take a trader who reaches exactly that over five trading days:
| Day 1 | +€1,000 | Small winning day. |
|---|---|---|
| Day 2 | +€6,000 | The big day. |
| Day 3 | +€1,000 | Small winning day. |
| Day 4 | +€1,000 | Small winning day. |
| Day 5 | +€1,000 | Total now €10,000. |
Half of €10,000 is €5,000. Day 2 made €6,000, which is more than half. The 10% condition is met, but the consistency condition is not, so this account cannot request a payout yet. Nothing is lost: the account stays open, and the request waits.
The fix is plain arithmetic. For €6,000 to be no more than half, total profit has to reach at least €12,000. At €12,000 the big day is exactly 50%, and the rule only bans a day that exceeds that share. Any further profit on other days moves the big day further below the line.
A big day is allowed. It just cannot be more than half of the result on the day you ask to be paid.
How it fits with the other payout conditions
The consistency rule is one of several conditions that all have to be true at the same moment. On the €100,000 example above, a request also needs 5 trading days and 5 closed trades, all positions closed, no open or pending rule violations, the payout window open, and identity verification done before the first payout. Each of those is explained one by one in payout conditions explained, and the timing is in the 14 then 18 day payout cycle.
The rule is listed in the rule tables as well as in the payout list, and the rules page names it as the one exception to "breaching any rule fails the account". An oversized day does not fail your account at any stage. In the evaluation, a step that has reached its 5% target with one day over half the profit is not passed yet; it passes once more profit on other days brings that day to 50% or less. On the funded account the same thing happens to a payout request.
The rule also sits alongside the daily loss limit, which works in the other direction: it caps how much a single day can lose. On a funded account that limit is 3%, or €3,000 on €100,000. See the daily drawdown rule for how it is measured.
Frequently asked questions
Is exactly 50% allowed?
Yes, going by the wording. The rules page says one day "may not exceed" 50% of total profit, and the payout list says no day may account for "more than 50%". A day that is exactly half does not exceed it.
Does the consistency rule apply during the evaluation?
Yes. In an evaluation, a step with one day over 50% of total profit is not passed until profit is spread across more days. It does not fail the account. The other conditions to pass a step, the 5% target, the drawdown limits and 5 trading days with 5 closed trades, are set out on the trading rules page.
Can I wait and trade more before requesting?
Yes. Nothing forces a request on a given day. If one day is more than half of your profit, further profit on other days lowers its share. There is no time limit, but the inactivity rule still applies: more than 5 days, counted in full 24-hour periods with weekends included, without opening or closing a trade fails the account.
Does a large losing day count against the 50% limit?
The consistency rule is about a day's share of profit. Large losing days are governed by the daily drawdown limit, which is 3% of the account size on a funded account. A losing day can still matter for consistency, because it lowers total profit.
