Consistency Rule
Our Consistency Rule encourages consistent, disciplined trading performance by preventing over-reliance on a single high-profit day. It ensures profits are built steadily through a sustainable approach, which is key to long-term, sustainable, trading success.
2-Step Classic Challenge Step: 35% Consistency Limit (Step 1, Step 2)
Across all our account sizes on the 2-Step Classic challenge ($10,000, $25,000, $50,000, and $100,000), there is a 7% profit target to pass each step.
For a $100,000 account, this means $7,000 in total net profit per step (net profit counts your closed positions only, it does not count equity from open positions).
To meet the Consistency Rule requirement for each step of your challenge, no single trading day’s net profit (from closed positions only) can represent more than 35% of the total net profit achieved in that step.
Example 1 (Passing): On your $100,000 account, you finish the step with exactly $7,000 total net profit, and your highest single-day net profit is $2,450 (or less). This passes because $2,450 is exactly 35% of $7,000.
Example 2 (Not yet meeting the requirement): You reach $7,000 total net profit on the $100,000 account, but your best trading day delivered $2,800. This violates the rule because $2,800 exceeds 35% of $7,000 ($2,450 maximum allowed), even though you hit the 7% profit target. You will need to continue until you can demonstrate consistent performance, within the 35% limit set for your challenge.
(Note: The same 35% limit applies proportionally to smaller accounts. For example, on a $50,000 account the 7% target is $3,500, so the max single-day profit allowed would be $1,225.)
Funded Stage – 50% Consistency Limit
No single trading day’s net profit (from closed positions only) can represent more than 50% of the total net profit generated in the current payout evaluation period (typically since account funding or the last payout).
Example 1 (Passing): On your $100,000 funded account, you have accumulated $14,000 in total net profit since your last payout. Your highest single-day net profit is $7,000 (or less). This passes because $7,000 is exactly 50% of $14,000.
Example 2 (Not yet meeting the requirement): You have generated $10,000 in total net profit in the payout period on the $100,000 account, but one day shows $5,500 in net profit. This violates the rule because $5,500 exceeds 50% of $10,000 ($5,000 maximum allowed), and you would be unable to request a withdrawal until you can demonstrate consistent performance, with the 50% limit set for your challenge.
Our Consistency Rule is monitored automatically, and you will not pass your challenge, or be able to request a payout, until the consistency objectives are met. We find this rule promotes responsible risk management, and avoids the ‘boom and bust’ approach which we have always counselled so strongly against, since 2021.
We have created a dedicated tool in order for traders to understand the consistency rule and percentages on accounts, with examples; please use this Consistency Rule Calculator in order to see any example on any account size or step/phase.
The Consistency Metric in your FT+ Dashboard
In the instance you have not met the consistency percentage on your account, your profit target (on the challenge step) and your withdrawal eligibility (on the Funded step) will change. This would be reflected in your FT+ Dashboard under “Trading Statistics” (located on the Account Metrics page of your Dashboard).
If you have not met the consistency percentage; your “Minimum Required Profit” statistic would reflect the minimum amount you would now need to make based on the current “best days” profit, to fall in line with the consistency rule. You can see an example of this in your FT+ Dashboard, below.
