At the time of payment review, we calculate this rule by considering the first open trade in your account and the size of your trade to establish a range of trades. This range is determined by adding 30% to the average size of your trade to set the maximum value and subtracting 30% to set the minimum value. Additionally, trades must be within a specific deviation percentage of the average size of your trade to be considered consistent with your strategy. For example, if the average size of your trade was 20 lots and the allowed deviation percentage is 30%, trades ranging from 14 to 26 lots are considered consistent with your strategy.
This consistency calculation is performed at the time of your payment request and applies specifically to the funding stage, aimed at traders who passed the challenge through HFT robots.
Furthermore, we must specify that the consistency of your lot is based on the trades you open within a 3-minute window, in other words, if you open 2 trades with a total of 20 standard lots within 3 minutes, your consistency will be 20 lots.
Trade Size Consistency Rule:
During the payment review, our goal is to ensure that your trades fall within a reasonable and consistent range in line with your trading strategy. We use the following formula to calculate this range:
Maximum trade size (Maximum lot size) = Trade size + 30% of trade size
Minimum trade size (Minimum lot size) = Trade size - 30% of trade size
Additionally, we define an allowed deviation percentage to ensure that trades do not deviate too much from the range. This deviation percentage is applied to the trade size and is used to set upper and lower limits for acceptable trade sizes.
Example:
Suppose the average trade size in your account is 20 lots and the allowed deviation percentage is 30%.
Calculation of maximum trade size: Maximum lot size = 20 lots + (30% * 20 lots) = 20 lots + 6 lots = 26 lots
Calculation of minimum trade size: Minimum lot size = 20 lots - (30% * 20 lots) = 20 lots - 6 lots = 14 lots
This means that any trade size between 14 and 26 lots is considered consistent with your strategy.
