Growth Plan – Consistency Rule (20%)

How the 20% consistency rule is calculated for payout eligibility.

Updated yesterday

Overview

The Growth Plan uses a 20% consistency rule when evaluating payout requests.

This rule applies only at the time of payout. It does not affect passing the evaluation phase. The purpose is to promote steady and sustainable trading behavior.


How the Rule Works

Your largest profitable trading day cannot exceed 20% of your total profit at the time you request a payout.

If it does, you must continue trading until your profit distribution becomes compliant.


Formula

Largest Winning Day ÷ Total Profit ≤ 20%


Example – Not Compliant

Total Profit: $8,000
Largest Winning Day: $3,000

$3,000 ÷ $8,000 = 37.5% ❌

This exceeds 20%, so the account is not eligible for payout yet.


Example – Compliant

Total Profit: $8,000
Largest Winning Day: $1,500

$1,500 ÷ $8,000 = 18.75% ✅

This satisfies the 20% rule (assuming all other payout conditions are met).


Important Notes

  • Only profitable days are included in the calculation

  • Loss days do not count toward the percentage

  • The rule does not limit total profits

  • It regulates profit distribution only

  • The calculation is based on realized profit at the time of payout request


Key Takeaways

  • Largest winning day must be ≤ 20% of total profit

  • Applies only for payout approval

  • Encourages consistent trading behavior

  • Must be satisfied alongside all other payout requirements
