Approval and payout consistency
Why a single day can't decide the evaluation, how the target rises and how it differs from payout consistency.
Your plan's values
Approval consistency keeps a single day from deciding the evaluation: on EXL Flex 50K, your best day's profit cannot exceed 40% of total profit. In the funded account, there's a different rule, payout consistency, of 30%, measured in each cycle.
- Approval consistency
- 40%
- in the evaluation, on total profit
- Payout consistency
- 30%
- in the funded account, on the cycle's profit
Why it exists
A lucky day can happen to anyone. Consistency shows that your profit comes from a method that repeats across several sessions, and that's what sustains a funded account.
Approval consistency
The dashboard compares your best day's profit with the evaluation's total profit. If your best day goes over 40% of the total, the evaluation doesn't end: the target rises to the point where your best day fits within the percentage again, and the dashboard shows the new target.
Your best day is 50% of the total. The target becomes US$ 3,750.
Example
A US$ 3,000 target and 40% consistency. You made US$ 1,500 on your best day and reached US$ 3,000 in total. Your best day went over the limit, so the target rises to US$ 3,750. Once you hit the new target, with the other rules met, the account passes.
Payout consistency is a different rule
- In the funded account, consistency is measured in each payout cycle: no single day can exceed 30% of the cycle's profit.
- It has its own percentage and doesn't change with the consistency add-on, which only applies to the evaluation.
- Until the cycle meets payout consistency, the payout is not released: keep trading until the cycle evens out.
- After each approved payout, a new cycle starts on the next session, and consistency is measured in it.
What happens if you go over
In the evaluation, going over consistency doesn't fail you: the target rises. In the funded account, the payout waits until the cycle meets the rule.
