Consistency Rule

Consistency Rule — A rule requiring no single day to account for more than X% (often 30-50%) of total profit.

Full Definition

The consistency rule is meant to prevent gambling: it disqualifies traders who hit profit target on a single lucky day. Most rules require no day to exceed 30-50% of total profit. Failing the rule means rejection at payout time, not during the challenge — so traders often pass the target only to be denied funding.
