Is There a Consistency Rule?

All funded accounts are subject to a mandatory Consistency Rule.

If this threshold is exceeded, you will be unable to request a withdrawal until your consistency falls below the necessary Consistency Rule of each account type.

There is no consistency rule applied to all challenge accounts.

  • X-Funded 1-Phase Zero Account – No consistency rule
  • X-Funded 2-Phase Zero Account – No consistency rule

For funded accounts, the following consistency rules apply:

  • Standard 1-Phase Funded Account – 45% Consistency Rule
  • Standard 2-Phase Funded Account – 45% Consistency Rule
  • Bybit 1-Phase Funded Account – 45% Consistency Rule
  • Bybit 2-Phase Funded Account – 45% Consistency Rule
  • Instant Funded Account – 20% Consistency Rule

Consistency Rule Formula:

  • Consistency Rule (%) = (Highest Daily Profit ÷ Total Profit) × 100

 

Example 1:
Account Program: 1-Phase Funded Account

Account size: $100,000 

Total profits: $5,000

Daily Performance

  • Day 1: +$1,000
  • Day 2: +$2,500 ➔ Best Day
  • Day 3: +$1,500

Highest daily profit = $2,500

(2,500 ÷ 5,000) × 100 = 50% Consistency, This result exceeds the 45% Consistency rule and you need to keep trading until it falls below 45%.

 

Example 2:

Account Program: 1-Phase Funded Account

Account size: $50,000

Total Profits: $4,000

Daily Performance

  • Day 1: +$1,000
  • Day 2: +$1,500 ➔ Best Day
  • Day 3: +$1,000
  • Day 4: +$500

Highest daily profit = $1,500

(1,500 ÷ 4,000) × 100 = 37,5% Consistency, this result below the 45% and you meet the Consistency rule.
