A qualifying trading day is a day when your account meets the profit requirement assigned to its program. Placing a trade or making a small profit does not necessarily make the day qualify.
How much profit does a qualifying day need?
For programs with a 0.5% qualifying-day requirement, the day must reach at least 0.5% of the applicable initial account size in net closed profit. Check the rules for your market, program and phase; not every account requires qualifying days.
Example: on a $25,000 account with this requirement, 0.5% is $125. A daily result of $125 after trading costs meets that threshold; $125 before costs, reduced to $120 after costs, does not.
Several closed trades can contribute to the same day’s net result. More trades on that day do not create additional qualifying days, and open profit is not closed profit.
When does the trading day reset?
CFD and Perpetuals: the day boundary is 00:00 UTC.
Futures: the trading-day boundary is 5:00 PM ET (New York time, including daylight-saving changes).
Your local date or MT5 server date may differ from the account’s qualifying-day date.
Why has my day not counted?
Check the day’s net closed profit against your program’s threshold.
Check the trading-day boundary, especially for trades closed around midnight.
Refresh the dashboard and allow for its normal data-sync delay.
The required number of days and any new requirements after a payout depend on your program. See CFD payout eligibility or Futures payout conditions. If the counter still looks wrong, send support your Account ID and the relevant trade history.
