Profitable Days

There is no Profitable Days requirement on the challenge. On the Simulated Funded Account you must complete 4 Profitable Days to qualify for each payout. A Profitable Day is a trading day where your end-of-day (EOD) balance increases by at least 0.25% of the initial balance compared to the previous EOD Reference. See the Minimum Profitable Days article for the minimum daily profit on your account size.

Consistency Score

The Consistency Score is your best trading day divided by your total rewards, expressed as a percentage. There is no Consistency Score requirement on the challenge. On the Simulated Funded Account it must be at or below 40% to qualify for a payout, on every account size.

End of Day Trailing Max Loss

Your Max Loss limit sits 4% below your end-of-day high watermark on account sizes up to 50K, and 3% below it on 100K and 150K accounts. The high watermark is the higher of your end-of-day balance or equity. It moves up at the end of each day as your account grows. Your Max Loss resets after every payout, with the high watermark set to your balance once the payout has been deducted.

⚠️ Experience Program rank benefits do not apply on One Step Light. Rank 2 does not add 1% to your Max Loss allowance, and extra leverage is not applied. These benefits still apply on our standard challenges.

Max Risk

Your Max Risk Limit is 2% on the challenge and 2% on the Simulated Funded Account. It is absolute at both stages: reaching it closes your open positions and breaches the account immediately, with no strikes and no escalation. One Step Light does not use the Pip Protector.

Payouts

Payouts are weekly by default. The smallest payout you can request is 1% of your balance. The largest starts at 3% and increases by 1% with every payout you take, up to 6%. Profit above the cap stays in your account for a future payout. See Payout Caps.

Add-Ons

Add-Ons can be bought at checkout to adjust your account, including a longer time limit, shorter payout intervals, extra Max Loss and Swap-Free trading. See How Add-Ons Work at PipFarm.
