Why Consistency Rules Exist

At YRM Prop, payouts are reserved for traders who show repeatable skill. Consistency rules prevent “one-hit wonders” from passing with a single big win and reward traders who demonstrate steady, disciplined performance.

Consistency applies to all funded account types: Starter, Prime, and Instant Prime.


The Two Core Consistency Rules

1. Single-Day Profit Concentration Rule

  • Starter (Challenge): No single profitable day may exceed 50% of your total profit.

  • Prime: No single profitable day may exceed 35% of your total profit.

  • Instant Prime: No single profitable day may exceed 20% of your total profit.

Formula:

Single Day Concentration = Highest Daily Profit ÷ Total Profit


2. Minimum Profitable Days Rule

  • You must have at least 10 profitable trading days (for payout eligibility).

  • Starter accounts require a minimum of 2 profitable days to pass the evaluation.

  • Profitable days do not need to be consecutive, but each must show at least $150 profit to count toward the minimum.


Examples by Account Type

Starter Account (50% Rule, 2 Profitable Days Minimum)

  • Account: $50K Challenge

  • Total Profit: $2,800

  • Day 1: +$1,500

  • Day 2: +$1,300

Check Concentration:
Highest daily profit = $1,500
$1,500 ÷ $2,800 = 53.5% → Fail (too concentrated in one day).

Solution: Trader must keep trading to raise total profits and dilute the % below 50%.


Prime Account (35% Rule, 10 Profitable Days Minimum)

  • Total Profit: $2,400

  • Highest Daily Profit: $700

  • Profitable Days: 12

Check Concentration:
$700 ÷ $2,400 = 29.2% → Pass
12 profitable days ≥ 10 → ✅ Meets both rules.

Result: Eligible for payout.


Prime Account (Fail Example)

  • Total Profit: $2,000

  • Highest Daily Profit: $900

  • Profitable Days: 11

Check Concentration:
$900 ÷ $2,000 = 45% → Fail
Even with 11 days, the account fails because one day dominates profit.


Instant Prime Account (20% Rule, 10 Profitable Days Minimum)

  • Total Profit: $3,500

  • Highest Daily Profit: $950

  • Profitable Days: 12

Check Concentration:
$950 ÷ $3,500 = 27.1% → Fail (too high).

Solution: Keep trading, add profits on other days until the big day’s share is ≤ 20%.


Instant Prime Account (Pass Example)

  • Total Profit: $3,000

  • Highest Daily Profit: $600

  • Profitable Days: 11

Check Concentration:
$600 ÷ $3,000 = 20% → Pass
11 profitable days ≥ 10 → ✅ Meets both rules.


What If You Don’t Meet Consistency?

  • Your trades and profits remain, but you cannot request payout until consistency is achieved.

  • Continue trading to add more profitable days and dilute the largest day’s weight.


Important Notes

  • Buffer Allowance: Our systems allow for a small rounding buffer — don’t panic if you’re slightly over the limit.

  • No “gaming the system”: Deliberately splitting trades or artificially capping days may trigger review.

  • Minimum Profitable Day Rule: Each of the 10 days must be at least $150 profit to count.


Best Practices for Passing

  • Track your highest daily profit vs. total in a journal or spreadsheet.

  • Scale down positions on large winning days to avoid concentration violations.

  • Plan trades so profits are spread across multiple days.

  • Remember: steady growth > one big win.
