Quick answer: Your highest single profit day must be below a set share of your total profit for the payout period. Speedy: below 40%. Instant Funding: below 20%. Pro: doesn't apply. It's a payout condition, not a breach — your account stays active either way.
Thresholds
Program | Threshold |
Speedy | Below 40% |
Instant Funding | Below 20% — see Consistency Rule – Instant Funding |
Flex | Rule does not apply |
Pro | Rule does not apply |
Exactly the threshold is not below it. 40.00% on Speedy and 20.00% on Instant Funding are both ineligible.
The formula
Highest realised profit day ÷ Total realised profit for the payout period × 100
Only realised profit counts. An open position at +$2,000 contributes nothing until it's closed.
Speedy example
Highest day: $1,500
Total period profit | Calculation | Result |
$3,750 | 1,500 ÷ 3,750 | 40.00% — not eligible |
$3,900 | 1,500 ÷ 3,900 | 38.46% — eligible |
$1,500 ÷ 0.40 = $3,750 identifies the exact boundary. Because the rule requires less than 40%, your total must move past it.
If you later make $1,800 in a day, that becomes the new highest day. The boundary moves to $4,500 and your total must exceed that.
After an approved payout
The period closes and the old highest day stops counting. The new profit base is:
Current Balance − Balance After Payout
New formula: Highest realised day after the payout ÷ (Current Balance − Balance After Payout) × 100
Speedy example:
Balance After Payout: $101,000
Current Balance: $104,000
New period profit: $3,000
Highest day in the new period: $1,100
$1,100 ÷ $3,000 = 36.67% — below 40%, eligible
Use Balance After Payout from the Trader Area as your reference, not the original starting balance. The reset happens once a payout is approved — a pending or rejected request doesn't necessarily close a period.
The percentage can go up
Losing days don't help. A loss reduces your total realised profit while the highest day stays the same — so the percentage rises.
Highest day $1,000, period profit falls from $3,000 to $2,000: the figure moves from 33.3% to 50%.
A new larger profit day also becomes the new highest day. Continuing to trade doesn't guarantee the percentage falls.
This is not a breach
Exceeding the threshold doesn't breach or terminate your account. It's a payout-eligibility condition. The account stays active; the payout waits until the figure falls below the threshold.
To find your target: highest realised day ÷ 0.40 (Speedy) or ÷ 0.20 (Instant Funding). Total realised profit must exceed that.
Profitability alone doesn't override it. Support can't remove the rule, lower your highest day, or exclude valid trading days.
What to send support
