The consistency rule formula#
The check is one inequality: best day ÷ total net realized profit ≤ 55%. Days are UTC calendar days, starting at 00:00 UTC, and exactly 55.0% passes.
The best day is your largest single profitable day. The total is the net sum of *every* day, red days included, which is the part most people miss.
How much total profit does a big day require?
Rearranged: total needed = best day ÷ 0.55. On a $25,000 account the +6% target is $1,500, so whichever number is larger is the one you have to reach.
| Best single day | Total needed for consistency | Total needed to pass ($25k) |
|---|---|---|
| $800 | $1,454.55 | $1,500 (target binds) |
| $1,000 | $1,818.19 | $1,818.19 |
| $1,500 | $2,727.28 | $2,727.28 |
| $2,000 | $3,636.37 | $3,636.37 |

Worked examples#
- Pass in two days. +$800, then +$700. Total $1,500, best day 53.3%. Pass. Two green days clear 55% whenever the smaller is at least about 82% of the bigger.
- A big day, then diluted. +$1,000, then +$500. Target hit, best day 66.7% of $1,500, so keep going. A third day of +$400 makes the total $1,900 and the best day 52.6%. Pass.
- A red day in the middle. +$1,000, −$200, +$800. Total $1,600, best day 62.5%. Reaching $1,818.19 of net profit brings the $1,000 day to 55%.
A big day never closes anything: you simply keep trading until new profit dilutes it. The consistency rule calculator runs your own days, and the rules page has the same tables.
Where it applies at Fullport#
Only at the evaluation pass check: funded accounts have no consistency rule, so one big funded day is simply a big day. Payouts are never checked for consistency.
The optional 1-Day Pass removes the rule from the evaluation too, in exchange for a +8% target instead of +6%, at the same fee. If your style produces one large day rather than several medium ones, it is the mode to pick. The consistency rule explained goes further.
Quick answers
- What does a 55% consistency rule mean?
- It means your best single trading day can make up no more than 55% of your total net profit when you pass. On a $1,500 total, no single UTC day may contribute more than $825 of realized profit.
- What happens if one day is more than 55% of my profit?
- Nothing closes. At Fullport the evaluation simply has not passed yet, and you keep trading until additional profit dilutes the big day to 55% or less of the total. Funded accounts have no consistency rule at all.
- How do you maintain the consistency rule?
- Aim for several similar-sized days instead of one big one, and stop adding to a day once it is clearly your best. If one day already dominates, keep trading normally: each extra profitable day lowers its share of the total.
