Consistency

Many firms reward steady, repeatable results over a single lucky day. Consistency means your profits are spread out rather than coming from one outsized trade.

Before / after

Hitting target, two ways

Before

Reaches the profit target with one oversized, lucky trade on day two.

After

Reaches it across many days with similar-sized trades — and passes the consistency rule.

Pro insight

Consistency rules exist to separate skill from luck. A firm wants to fund a repeatable process, not a trader who got one big trade right — because only the process pays them back over time.
