⚖️ CONSISTENCY RULES

(Funded Stage Only)

📈 Profit Consistency Rule

No single trading day may exceed 50% of total profits generated during the payout cycle.

Example

• Total cycle profit: $10,000

• Maximum single-day profit allowed: $5,000

Exceeding this limit delays payout eligibility until consistency is restored.

⚖️ Lot Size Consistency

Traders must maintain reasonable and consistent lot sizing.

Maximum variation per trade

• Forex Pairs: ± 2.00 lots

• Indices: ± 0.50 lots [Applies to: NAS100, US30, SPX500, GER40, XAUUSD]

• Crypto: ± 0.50 lots

This rule prevents erratic risk behavior and enforces professional trade execution.
