With a 40% best-day rule, you must ensure that no single trading day exceeds more than 40% of your total generated profits. This feature was introduced to reward consistency, and discipline, and promote responsible trading behavior, which can be beneficial for E8 Traders and E8 Markets in the long run.
Example Scenario number 1:
Day 1 - $ 1,100 profit
Day 2 - $ 900 profit
Day 3 - $ -400 loss
Day 4 - $1,500 profit
Total generated profit: $3,100
40% of the total generated profits: $1,240
Best day: $1,500
Since 40% of the total generated profit is $1,240 and your best day is $1,500 you won't be able to request a payout and you will have to keep trading until 40% of the total generated profit is higher than your best day.
Example Scenario number 2:
Day 1 - $ 500 profit
Day 2 - $ 550 profit
Day 3 - $ -150 loss
Day 4 - $ 600 profit
Day 5- $ 400 profit
Total generated profit: $1,900
40% of the total generated profits: $760
Best day: $600
Since 40% of the total generated profit is $800 and there is no single day that this profit is exceeded, you would be able to request your payout.
