Prop firm consistency rules, eval vs funded.

44 plans from 14 futures prop firms with the consistency cap split by phase - evaluation and funded - because at most firms the two are completely different.

What is a prop firm consistency rule?

A consistency rule caps how much of your total profit can come from one trading day. If your best day is bigger than the firm's cap - between 15% and 52% at the firms on this page - you cannot pass the evaluation or request a payout until you add profit on other days.

Most comparisons miss the key detail: a firm can apply the rule only in the evaluation, only once funded, in both phases or not at all. The table shows the exact cap in each phase, plan by plan.

Consistency rule comparison table

A percentage is the most your best day can be as a share of total profit. "None" means no consistency rule in that phase.

Min days to pass = the firm's minimum trading days, or the fewest profitable days the evaluation cap allows if that is higher.

How the consistency rule is calculated

Every firm uses the same math. Only the cap changes.

Your consistency percentage is your best day divided by your total profit:

Best day profit ÷ Total profit = Consistency %

You are compliant while that number is at or below your plan's cap.

Example on a 50% plan: your best day is $1,500 and total profit is $2,000. That is 75% from one day, so you cannot pass yet. Keep trading until total profit reaches $3,000 and your best day drops to exactly 50%. You never give back profit - the rule only delays the pass or payout.

2 days50% / 52% cap
3 days35% / 40% / 45% cap
4 days30% cap
5 days20% cap
7 days15% cap

Skip the math. Enter your daily P&L and see if your biggest day breaks the rule, plus exactly how much more you need to make.

What is the difference between evaluation and funded consistency?

The evaluation rule decides whether you can pass and get a funded account. The funded rule decides whether you can request a payout. Many firms enforce one but not the other, so a plain yes or no answer is misleading.

How many profitable days do I need with a consistency rule?

Divide 100 by the cap and round up. 50% or 52% needs 2, 35%, 40% or 45% needs 3, 30% needs 4, 20% needs 5 and 15% needs 7 profitable days before you can pass or request a payout. The firm's own minimum trading days can add more.

What happens if I break the consistency rule?

At most firms it is a soft breach, not a failed account. You just cannot pass or get paid until you add profit on other days and bring your best day back under the cap. You never give back profit you already made.
