We pay traders who can repeat their results. Profit spread across several good days shows a real, repeatable method – exactly the kind of trading we want to keep paying out on. One lucky session does not show that yet. That is all the Best Day Rule checks.

Kamari lost around $75,000 trading on his own before he found a steady approach. He used to avoid prop firms with a consistency rule – here is what changed his mind.

"I usually always steered clear of prop firms that had a consistency requirement, but I feel like the consistency requirement actually helped me. It makes it easier to calculate my risk."

"Now I know all I have to do is make my $500 for the day and I'm done."

"It kind of forces you to learn how to consistently make the money… I feel like I'm a more knowledgeable prop firm trader."

This is one trader’s personal experience, not a recommended daily profit target or a guarantee of qualification.

Best Day % = your best day's profit ÷ your total profit since your last payout × 100

If the result is 20% or less, this consistency condition is met on a program with a 20% limit. That alone does not establish payout eligibility. Your dashboard shows the current percentage.

The amount you choose to withdraw does not matter – the rule always looks at your total profit, never at your withdrawal request.

Accumulating profit across multiple smaller days can reduce the largest day’s share of total net profit. A new larger day becomes the new Best Day and changes both the numerator and total profit, so the percentage can rise. Losses reduce net profit and can raise the percentage too.

There is no fixed next-day profit target or guaranteed number of days that establishes eligibility. The ratio must be recalculated from the actual results in the applicable period. Meeting the Best Day limit satisfies only this condition; all other program and payout requirements still apply.

Six good days, evenly spread.

In this example, the final ratio is 19.0%, so the 20% Best Day condition is met. The table describes completed results, not a trading schedule or profit target. Other payout conditions still apply.

Same $10,000 total, but most of it came from one day.

Day 1 represents 60% of the total, so this example does not meet the 20% Best Day condition. Additional smaller profitable days can reduce that share, but any new largest day changes the Best Day as well as the total. No future profit amount or payout outcome is guaranteed.

Your Best Day % is always your biggest day so far divided by your total profit so far. It is not tied to your first day: when a new day beats your previous best, that day becomes your best day and the percentage can go up.

On Day 3 a new record day of $3,000 becomes your best day, so your Best Day % goes up from 50.0% ($1,000 ÷ $2,000) to 60.0% ($3,000 ÷ $5,000). On Day 4 it comes down again to 50.0% ($3,000 ÷ $6,000) as the total grows.

Use the dashboard’s current Best Day percentage and your program’s applicable limit. It measures the results achieved so far; it is not a forecast or a next-day trading target. Minimum qualifying trading days are a separate condition where your program requires them.

Every successful payout resets the rule. Your next cycle starts from zero: new days, new total, new best day. Nothing from the previous cycle carries over.

The Best Day Rule (20%) applies to funded accounts on our challenge programs and from the start on instant funding programs. It does not apply during challenge evaluation phases – with one exception: Horizon Futures uses a 40% limit during the challenge only, and none on the funded account.

Prefer no Best Day Rule at all? Horizon and Odyssey (CFD and perpetuals) have no consistency rule. Supernova, Hypernova and Ultranova use the Best Trade Rule instead, which looks at single trades rather than days. Your program's rules page and your dashboard always show the exact rule for your account.

Trade size never matters. Trade as you like – small positions are completely normal.

Is the Best Day Rule the same as the consistency rule? Yes. Same rule, one name.

Can it breach my account? Exceeding Best Day consistency does not itself breach or close the account. It is one of the applicable payout conditions, not the only one.

Does a smaller withdrawal help? No. The rule always uses your total profit since your last payout, not the amount you withdraw.

Why does it show 100% after my first day? With one profitable day and no other profit or loss in the period, that day accounts for all of the net profit. Later results change the ratio; a new largest day also changes the numerator.

My percentage looks very high after a losing day. Is something wrong? A losing day reduces total net profit, which can increase the Best Day percentage. Future results must be assessed using both the current largest day and the updated total.

What counts as a day? A calendar day in UTC (00:00–23:59), based on when your trades are closed.
