Classic Option

What is consistency rule?

To pass this qualification, your goal is to reach 30% consistency. In general terms: Consistency is maximum daily profit divided by total profit. For example: You've earned Day 1 - $100; Day 2 - $50; Day 3 - $300. Altogether, you've earned $450 - this is 100% of your profit. Consistency takes the largest day's profit ($300) and divides it by total profit ($450). So on the 3rd day your consistency is 66%. So you do not meet the consistency rule condition (30% or less). What can you do? Always continue trading, so that your total profit rises and your consistency gets smaller. For example: You earned $200 on the Day 4, so your ratio now is 300/650=46%. Then, in the next 2 days, you earned 250 and 200 dollars, and your consistency now is 27% - and you passed. Well Done!

Are there time limits? Do I have to reach the 6% profit target within a certain period of time?

If I open a new account, will my other account(s) close automatically?

No, you may have multiple accounts open at the same time, and other accounts will not be closed automatically.

How does the 2% Maximum Weekly Loss work at Classical version of the Stage 2?

It works in a same was as the Maximum Daily Loss, but does so based on the last seven calendar days, rather than just a single trading day. Example #1 If a trader has had a maximum portfolio value of $30,000 and he has not traded over the past 7 calendar days (i.e., the portfolio is still at $30,000), then the loss amount the trader should avoid is $600 (2% of the portfolio value). You can find full explanation with more examples in our blog
