Some programmes require that your best trading day does not exceed a set share of your total profit — 50% on our 1-Step and 40% on Futures. It exists to reward repeatable trading rather than one lucky day.
How it is calculated
Divide your best day's realised profit by your total profit. On a 40% rule, a $2,400 best day requires at least $6,000 of total profit before you can pass.
Staying within it
- Keep a similar risk per trade every day.
- After an exceptional day, keep trading normally — the rule is met as total profit grows.
- Check the Consistency objective in the platform; it shows your best-day share live.
