We require traders to execute a minimum of 5 trades in order to qualify for the first payout. The term “minimum trades” refers to the number of trades necessary to be eligible for receiving compensation. This requirement ensures that traders are actively engaged in the market and not relying on a single large trade or a highly concentrated group of trades to meet payout criteria.
A valid trade, for the purpose of this rule, is defined as any trade that is more than 80% of the size of the largest trade on the account. This guideline is in place to prevent traders from using one oversized trade to fulfill the minimum trade requirement, as well as to encourage diversity in trading strategies. By maintaining a more balanced approach, traders demonstrate consistent trading behaviour and a more disciplined risk management strategy throughout the pay period.
