CFDs Prime Challenge – Minimum Profitable Days
To successfully meet the trading objectives in a CFDs Prime Challenge, traders must achieve a minimum of 3 profitable trading days.
What is a profitable day?
A profitable day is when your account shows a gain of at least 0.5% of the initial balance, based on the lower of your balance or equity at midnight compared to the previous day’s balance.
Minimum of (Midnight Balance, Midnight Equity) – Previous Day’s Balance > 0.5% of initial balance
Note: "Midnight" refers to the end-of-day cutoff, which occurs at 16:15 CT (Central Time).
Example:
An account has an initial balance of $100,000.
Previous day balance: $100,000
End-of-day balance: $101,000
End-of-day equity: $100,600
0.5% of initial balance: $500
To determine if the day is profitable, we calculate:
Minimum of (End-of-day balance, End-of-day equity) – Previous day balance
= Min($101,000, $100,600) – $100,000
= $100,600 – $100,000 = $600
Since $600 > $500, this qualifies as a profitable day.
The profitable days do not need to be consecutive.
This requirement is designed to promote consistent and sustainable trading performance.
Who does this rule apply to?
