Consistency rules explained
Best-day limits and daily profit caps, and why a firm's own N/A is not treated as no rule.
Key rules at a glance
- Drawdown How far the account can fall before it fails. A static floor stays put. A trailing floor follows profit.
- Static or trailing
- Daily loss The loss that ends the day. Soft means you can keep trading. Hard means the account stops.
- Hard, soft, or none
- Consistency A cap on how much profit can come from one day, or a daily profit cap that deletes the extra.
- Best-day cap
- Payout How often you can request a withdrawal, plus any wait, cap, or profit you must leave in.
- Cadence and gates
- News Whether a news release can block the order or take back most of the profit.
- Ban or haircut
A consistency rule caps how much of your profit can come from one day. A daily profit cap deletes the extra at the reset.
Those are different tests. A firm can have no named consistency rule and still run a daily profit cap.
If the page only says N/A, we do not upgrade that to 'no rule'. The score stays open.
Best day at 50% or looser scores 5. From 40% up to 50% scores 10. Tighter than 40%, or a hard daily profit cap, scores 15.
