How Consistency Rules work

Share = (Best Day / Total Profit) × 100

Firms enforce consistency so you cannot pass a challenge or withdraw profits using a single lucky trade.

Methodology→

How the Consistency Rule Calculator Works

Calculate your best-day share by dividing your highest single-day profit by your total cumulative profit. If this share exceeds your firm limit (e.g. 40%), calculate extra profit needed as: (Best Day ÷ Limit) - Total Profit.

Calculation Formula

Best Day Share = (Best Day Profit ÷ Total Profit) × 100

Extra Profit Needed = (Best Day ÷ Limit%) - Total Profit. Passed if share ≤ limit%.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does failing the consistency rule cause an account breach?

Usually no! At most firms, failing consistency does not forfeit your account; it simply requires you to make additional profits on subsequent days to dilute your best day percentage below the threshold.

What consistency percentages do firms enforce?

Common limits include 30% (Apex/TradeDay), 40% (Topstep/FundedNext), and 50% (Funding Pips on specific accounts). Check your exact challenge parameters.
