When not allowed, it is prohibited to execute or close any trade within the window of 5 minutes before and 5 minutes after a high-impact news event.
Do not open new trades or increase existing ones within 3 minutes before or after high-impact economic releases or official speeches, as this behavior may be considered excessive risk-taking.

- 1-Step FLASH: no consistency rule. Funded accounts have a 3% maximum daily profit cap; once reached the account pauses until the next trading day and the excess is voided (not a breach).
- 1-Step NOVA: 20% ESS required to request a payout.
- 2-Step PRO v2: no consistency rule. Funded accounts cap profit at $3,000 per day.
- Instant Funding: consistency score must stay at 15% or below.
- Instant Prime: 20% ESS required to request a payout.
ESS = [ Largest Winning Day + Largest Losing Day |Absolute value| ] ÷ Total Profit × 100
The formula for calculation of the Consistency Score is: [1 - (most profitable trading day)/(combined profit on all profitable days)]*100:
- If the score is above 70 then the trader is considered as consistent.
- If the score lies between 50 - 70 then the risk team will manually review the account and decide whether the trader should continue trading until the score becomes above 70 or pass them.
- If the score is less than 50, then the trader shall continue trading the account until the score reaches above 50 and then the risk team can take a call.
