Minimum Winning Days

Guide to our minimum Winning Day requirement

Updated over 2 weeks ago

Introduction

The Winning Day is a performance metric used in specific PipFarm modes, including the Instant EOD Trailing Account.

You must complete the required number of Winning Days to qualify for payout. The number of Winning Days required is defined within the account rules (for example, 5 Winning Days for the Instant EOD Trailing Account).

What Is a Winning Day?

A Winning Day occurs when both of the following conditions are met:

  1. The trading day closes with at least +0.25% profit, calculated from the start-of-day balance.

  2. The end-of-day balance is above the account’s initial starting balance.

A new trading day begins at 22:00 GMT during standard time and 21:00 GMT during US Daylight Savings Time.

Winning Day Calculation

Winning Day = (EOD Balance − Start-of-Day Balance ≥ Start-of-Day Balance × 0.0025) AND (EOD Balance > Initial Balance)

Example #1 – Qualifies

Initial Balance: $100,000
Start-of-Day Balance: $99,900
End-of-Day Balance: $100,150

Daily Gain: $250
Percentage Gain: 0.25%

Result: ✅ Winning Day

Reason: Gain exceeds 0.25% of start-of-day balance and closes above the initial balance.

Example #2 – Does Not Qualify (Below Initial Balance)

Initial Balance: $100,000
Start-of-Day Balance: $99,500
End-of-Day Balance: $99,750

Daily Gain: $250
Percentage Gain: 0.25%

Result: ❌ Not a Winning Day

Reason: Although the gain meets 0.25%, the account is still below the initial balance.

Example #3 – Does Not Qualify (Insufficient Gain)

Initial Balance: $100,000
Start-of-Day Balance: $100,000
End-of-Day Balance: $100,100

Daily Gain: $100
Percentage Gain: 0.10%

Result: ❌ Not a Winning Day

Reason: The gain does not reach the required 0.25%.

Do Winning Days Have to Be Consecutive?

No. Winning Days do not need to be consecutive unless otherwise specified in the account rules.

Are Winning Days Required for Payout?

Yes. If your account includes a Winning Day requirement, you must complete the required number before becoming eligible to request a payout.
