Consistency rules are meant to discourage gambling mentality (make or break trades- which is a prohibited trading practice at investingchallenges.com) and promote a stable and sustainable approach to the trading simulation.
Consistency Rule – 40% Maximum Winning/Losing Day
Your biggest winning/losing day cannot represent more than 40% of your total simulated profits in order to be eligible for a reward request.
This metric is in place to deter gambling behaviors and to ensure consistency in trading and risk management.
Example:
Total Accumulated Profit: 2,000
Biggest Winning Day: 500
Consistency Ratio: 500 / 2,000 = 25%
Since 25% is below the 40% threshold, you are eligible to request your reward according to your profit split.
If your consistency ratio is above 40%, you will need to continue trading to rebalance your profit distribution before becoming eligible for a payout.
Important note:
After a payout is completed, your consistency score is reset and will be recalculated based only on profits generated after the payout.
