What is the Consistency Rule on Instant Funding?
The short answer: on Instant Funding accounts, your best single day's profit cannot exceed 20% of your total accumulated profits. This applies at the point you request a payout – not in real time during trading.
How is it calculated?
Take your total profits across all trading days in the reward cycle. Your single best day must represent 20% or less of that total.
- Example: You've made $5,000 in total profits. Your best single day was $1,200. That's 24% of your total – above the 20% cap. You're not eligible to request a payout until more trading days bring that percentage back within the limit.
- Example: You've made $10,000 in total profits. Your best single day was $1,400. That's 14% – within the limit. You can request a payout.
Does this apply to the 2-Step Challenge?
No. There is no consistency rule at any stage of the 2-Step Challenge – Phase 1, Phase 2, or funded. You can have one massive day that accounts for all your profits and it won't affect your eligibility. This is one of the key differences between the two programs.
What resets the consistency calculation?
Each reward cycle. Once a payout is processed and your account balance is updated, the cycle resets and the consistency calculation starts fresh.
Why does this rule exist?
It's designed to ensure traders are generating returns consistently across multiple sessions, not getting lucky in a single trade or a single day. Funded Guru is looking for repeatable performance – not one-off wins.
