I had one trading day that exceeded the Profit Distribution Rule. What happens?
During the evaluation phases (Phase 1 and Phase 2), no single trading day may contribute more than 40% of the trader's total net result, including both profits and losses.
For the purpose of this rule, each trading day's contribution is calculated based on its net daily result (all closed trades from that day combined).
This rule is designed to prevent overreliance on a single trading day and to encourage consistent and responsible trading behavior.
Example
Profit target: $500 (5,000$ phase 1 account)
Trading results:
- Day 1: +$320
- Day 2: +$100
- Day 3: +$40
- Day 4: +$22
- Day 5: +$18
Total net result: $500
Maximum allowed contribution from a single trading day:
$500 × 40% = $200
Rule Assessment
- Day 1 contributed $320 to the total result.
- Maximum allowed contribution is $200.
- Therefore, only $200 from Day 1 will be counted toward the evaluation result.
- The remaining $120 exceeds the consistency threshold and will not be counted.
To comply with the rule, profits and losses should be distributed more evenly across multiple trading days rather than concentrated in a single day.
