It prevents traders from passing on the back of one oversized trade and rewards a steady approach across multiple sessions. ","faq":"<b>Do all prop firms apply a consistency rule?<\/b>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">No. Some firms apply it strictly, others apply it only at the payout stage, and some do not apply it at all. The rule is most common among firms that emphasize trading skill over short-term volatility.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<b>How is the consistency rule calculated?<\/b>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The rule is typically expressed as a percentage cap. If the cap is 30% and the trader's total profit is $10,000, no single trading day can contribute more than $3,000 to that total. The specific calculation method varies by firm, including whether the rule applies per day, per week, or per individual trade.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<b>Does the consistency rule apply during the funded stage?<\/b>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It depends on the prop firm. Some apply the rule only during the challenge, others extend it to the funded account, and a smaller number apply it specifically at the point of payout request.<\/span>"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/propaccount.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/glossary\/6077","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/propaccount.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/glossary"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/propaccount.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/glossary"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/propaccount.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6077"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"glossary-category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/propaccount.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/glossary-category?post=6077"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
