How does your Consistency Rule work?
How does your Consistency Rule work?
FTMO has a Consistency rule applicable to:
- the 1-Step FTMO Challenge, including its FTMO Challenge as well as the FTMO Account phase, and
- the FTMO Instant Account.
The 2-Step FTMO Challenge product has no Consistency rule, but you must follow the Minimum Trading Days rule.
The purpose of the rule is to ensure that no single trading day accounts for too large a share of your total profit. This prevents one outsized day from carrying the whole result.
To find more information about the Consistency rule, please visit the Trading Objectives page.
