Violating the Consistency Rule does not cause your account to automatically fail or be terminated. However, there are important consequences depending on your account type:
1-Phase Challenge:
If your profits are not consistent (over 60% of profit made in one day), your profit target will be adjusted and your trading days extended until you meet the rule. You cannot pass the challenge until your trading meets the consistency requirement.
2-Phase Challenge (Step 2):
If you exceed the 60% limit, you won’t be able to move forward to a funded account until you meet consistency. You’ll need to continue trading until your profits are distributed more evenly.
Instant Funded Account:
If you exceed the 15% rule, you will not lose your account, but you will be unable to request a payout until your highest profit day falls below 15% of your total profits. You must keep trading to bring the ratio into compliance before requesting a payout.
