What happens if I violate the Consistency Rule?

Updated today

Donโ€™t panic! Violating the 40% CR isnโ€™t a ban or failure. Just continue trading until you rebalance your CR percentage.


Hereโ€™s exactly what occurs:

๐Ÿ”„ Step-by-Step Process

  1. Detection: System flags your CR >40% (e.g., 45%, 60%, etc.).

  2. Action Required: Trade conservatively until CR โ‰ค40%.

  3. Resolution: Once compliant, all restrictions lift automatically!

Scenario

Consequence

How to Avoid

Ignoring violation

Withdrawals blocked indefinitely

Check dashboard weekly

Taking losses

CR worsens! ($5,000 win + $2,000 loss โ†’ CR = 167%!)

Pause trading until CR fixed

No follow-up trades

Permanent withdrawal hold

Add 2-3 small wins after big trades


Summary: Violation โ‰  Disaster

  1. No account termination โ€“ Just rebalance profits.

  2. No financial penalty โ€“ You keep all earnings.

  3. Easy fix: Add smaller wins (โ‰ฅ3% of account size).

  4. Dashboard guides you: Shows exact $ needed to comply.


๐Ÿ’ก Think of it like a speed bump:

  • Violation = "Slow down, your profits are too concentrated!"

  • Fix = Add smaller wins to "dilute" the ratio.

  • Back on track = Full access restored.


๐Ÿงฎ DIY Compliance Check

Your Biggest Win: $______ 
Total Profit: $______
CR = (______ รท ______) ร— 100 = ______%


๐Ÿ‘‰ If >40%, add $______ in profits to fix:
Required Profit = (Biggest Win รท 0.4) - Total Profit


Example:

  • Biggest Win = $5,000

  • Total Profit = $6,000

  • Required = ($5,000 รท 0.4) - $6,000 = $6,500 more

*Tip: After a big win, trade micro-lots ($100-$500 targets) until your dashboard turns green!* โœ…
