Consistency rules
Prop Firm Consistency Rules
Standard consistency rules used to evaluate traders for funding. In the absence of specific data, here are the common criteria to ensure fair and transparent evaluation:
- Risk management: adhere to predefined drawdown limits (max daily loss, max total loss, trailing drawdown).
- Performance consistency: required to show steady profitability over the evaluation period, not solely on a single day.
- Real-time monitoring: ongoing surveillance of trading activity to verify adherence to rules.
- Payout and funding terms: transparent and consistent payout structures once funding is achieved.
- Instrument and time constraints: compliance with permitted instruments and trading hours.
If you provide more specifics, I can tailor this description to your firm's exact rules.
Firm rules

\n- \n
- Evaluation: None \n
- Funded: 3 profitable days with at least 0.5% profit based on your starting balance for that day, and your overall account balance is above the initial starting balance. \n
