The Consistency Rule is designed to encourage steady and sustainable trading performance. It helps ensure that traders are not relying on one unusually large trading day.

The Consistency Rule means that no single trading day can account for X% or more of your total profits during the payout period.

The consistency percentage may vary depending on the challenge or funding model.

You can check whether your challenge has a Consistency Rule in our detailed model FAQs: https://help.goatfundedtrader.com/en/collections/11811982-models

For example, if the Consistency Rule is 15% and your highest profit day should not exceed 15% of the total profit earned.
​
If your total profit earned is $5000, your highest trading day should not exceed (5000 X 15% ) = $750.

Not meeting the Consistency Rule will not result in account termination or an account breach. However, you will not be able to request a payout until your highest profit day is below X% of your total profits for the payout period.

You should continue trading and generating profits until your highest profit day represents less than X% of your total profits.

If you open a large position and close it in partials, the full profit or loss from that position will count on the trading day when the entire position is fully closed. This means that the PNL from partial closes is not split across the different days when each partial close takes place.
​

For consistency rule purposes, the full PNL of the position is counted on the day the final part of the trade is closed.

If you open one large trade and close part of it on Monday, another part on Tuesday, and the final part on Wednesday, the full PNL from that trade will be counted on Wednesday.
​

Wednesday will be the trading day used for the Consistency Rule calculation because that is the day the full trade was completely closed.
