FFUNDED Consistency Rules: 50% Best Day, Size and Rhythm

FFUNDED runs three consistency rules, and none of them can end your account. Profit Consistency, the 50% Best Day Rule, applies to Instant and 1 Step accounts and only ever pauses a payout. Trade Consistency compares your latest position size to your own average. Weekly Trade Consistency watches how often you trade. This page gives the exact numbers for each, because the difference between the three is where most confusion starts.

The 50% Best Day Rule

Profit Consistency asks one question: how much of your profit came from a single day? Take your most profitable New York trading day and divide it by the total profit across all of your profitable days. On Instant and 1 Step accounts that share must be 50% or less at the moment you request a payout. Exactly 50% is allowed. The rule opens once you have at least two trading days, and the measurement starts fresh after each approved payout.

A worked example, on an Instant or 1 Step account:

If your best day were instead $1,200 of a $2,000 total, the share would be 60% and the payout request would be paused. One more profitable day of $400 lifts the total to $2,400, the share falls to exactly 50%, and the payout is available again.

2 Step Standard and 2 Step Pro accounts have no profit consistency rule at all, during the evaluation or once funded. The full wording lives on the trading rules page with per plan tables.

Trade Consistency: your size against your own average

This rule compares the size of your latest closed trade against the average of the 20 closed trades before it. Your latest trade must stay below a 100% increase on that average, which is the same as saying it must stay below double it. If your average is 0.50 lots, the line is 1.00 lots.

The rule opens after 5 closed trades, is not measured at all on your first day of trading, and applies to every plan. Going over the line does not close anything: the sizing is recorded and considered at your next payout review. Sizing up gradually as your balance grows is normal and is not what the rule is looking for. If you want the position math behind sensible sizing, start with position sizing on a funded account.

Weekly Trade Consistency: your rhythm

This one watches how much you trade rather than how big. FFUNDED counts your closed trades per New York trading day and takes the average across the days you actually traded in the last 30 days. Your band is half that average at the low end and double it at the high end, so an average of 6 trades a day gives a band of 3 to 12, with the floor never below 1 trade and both ends rounded in your favour.

The rule opens after 10 closed trades and applies to Instant and 2 Step Pro accounts. Days you did not trade never count against you, and the day in progress is never flagged for being quiet.

What actually happens when you go over

Nothing is closed and nothing is taken away. A consistency rule is not a drawdown rule: going over never breaches your account, never ends your step and never removes profit, no matter how many times it happens. On Instant and 1 Step, a best day share above 50% pauses your payout request until more trading days bring the share back down. Your best day, your total profit and your current share sit on your dashboard and update as you trade, next to your progress on minimum profitable days, which is the other payout-side count worth watching.

The practical reading: the rules reward showing up. More trading days dilute your best day, keep your sizing near your own average, and every one of these checks passes on its own.

Frequently asked questions

Does breaking a consistency rule breach my FFUNDED account?

No. None of the three consistency rules can breach an account, end a stage or remove profit. Profit Consistency pauses a payout request while your best day is over 50% of your total profit, and Trade Consistency records oversized trades for your next payout review. Trading continues throughout.

Is a best day of exactly 50% allowed?

Yes. The gate only pauses a payout when the share is strictly over 50%. A best day that is exactly half of your total profit passes the check and your payout is available.

Do 2 Step accounts have a consistency rule?

2 Step Standard and 2 Step Pro carry no profit consistency rule in any stage, evaluation or funded. Trade Consistency, the sizing rule, applies to every plan, and Weekly Trade Consistency applies to Instant and 2 Step Pro.

Does the Profit Consistency measurement ever reset?

Yes. The measurement starts fresh after each approved payout, so a payout cycle always begins with a clean slate. It also only opens once an account has at least two trading days.
