Ability challenge & Funded Trader Program

Consistency Rule

• The Ability Challenge and Funded Trader program requires traders to show consistency in their trading by keeping trade sizes and durations balanced across the minimum four & five trading days respectively. The score is calculated using the formula
• [1 - (most profitable day ÷ total profit on all profitable days)] × 100. A score above 70 means the trader is consistent, a score between 50 and 70 triggers manual review by the risk team, and a score below 50 requires the trader to continue trading until it improves.
