Consistency ruleIntermediate
A prop rule that limits how much of your profit can come from one day.
What it means
A typical rule: no single day can be more than 30–50% of total profit. It stops one lucky trade from passing the challenge.
How to spot it
- Best day ÷ total profit, compared with the firm's %.
Common mistakes
- Passing the target with one big day, then failing payout checks.
