Note
This article applies to Intraday and EOD accounts. Swing accounts use weekly Benchmarks — see the Swing Trading Accounts – Master FAQ.
What is a qualifying trading day?
A qualifying trading day is a day where the account meets the required daily profit target while staying inside all active trading rules.
To count as a qualifying trading day:
• The account must reach the daily profit target for the selected account size.
• All trades must remain within the account's active risk rules (drawdown, MAE).
• The account must pass the end-of-day evaluation checks.
If the daily profit target is not met, the day does not count as a qualifying trading day. Any profit earned on that day will remain in the account balance and may contribute toward future Benchmark progress.
