The evaluation
What the consistency rule really does
It is the rule most traders misunderstand, and here it cannot fail your account.
A consistency rule says no single day may be too large a share of your total profit. Here that share is 40%. It exists because passing an evaluation on one lucky day proves nothing about whether you can do it again with the firm's money.
The arithmetic
On 25K Evaluation (1-step) the target is $1,500. If you reach it, your best single day must be no more than 40% of your realised profit — so at exactly the target, a day worth more than $600 is over the line. The denominator is your profit, not your balance, and both halves are measured on realised money rather than on open positions.
| Your best day | Profit needed for it to be inside the rule |
|---|---|
| $600 | $1,500 |
| $1,200 | $3,000 |
| $2,400 | $6,000 |
What happens if you cross it
Your account is not failed, closed or reset. Nothing is taken away. What happens is that the pass waits: the engine flags the account and holds the phase advance until the profit spreads out enough to satisfy the rule. Keep trading and a few ordinary days bring the ratio back inside the line on their own.
