Minimum days and positive days
How many sessions you need to trade before passing, what counts as a positive day and what happens if you're short.
Your plan's values
To pass, hitting the target on one good day isn't enough. On EXL Flex 50K, you need 3 days traded.
- Minimum days
- 3 days
- traded before passing
- Positive days
- Not required
Why it exists
A result that repeats across several sessions says more about your method than a single day. The required days make sure the evaluation sees you trading in different market conditions.
Minimum days
- A session counts as a traded day when you close at least one trade in it.
- The days don't have to be in a row, as long as you don't go 30 calendar days without trading.
- A losing day also counts as a traded day.
- Automatic settlement at a contract's expiry counts in the result, but not as a traded day.
Positive days
Flex doesn't require positive days: you just need to meet the minimum days, the target and the other rules.
Example
Hit the US$ 3,000 target before completing 3 days traded? The pass waits. Keep trading, within the rules, until you complete the days.
In the funded account
In the funded account, the rule is different: to withdraw, each cycle needs 5 days with a profit of at least US$ 200.
What happens if you're short
Being short on days doesn't fail the account: the pass just waits until they're met.
