The One-Step Evaluation

FPT Scale uses a single evaluation stage — what you have to clear, what can end it early, and what happens the moment you pass.

FPT Scale is a one-step evaluation. There is one stage, one profit target, and one set of rules. There is no second phase to clear afterwards and no verification stage between passing and being funded.

Everything in this article is simulated. Your balance, orders, positions, fills and profits inside an FPT account are simulated — FPT does not route your orders to an exchange and does not hold funds for you. What is real is the performance payout you may receive once you are funded. See Are FPT Accounts Simulated?.


What You Have to Clear

Four things have to be true at the same time.

1. Reach the profit target.

AccountProfit target
$25k Scale$1,250
$50k Scale$3,000
$100k Scale$6,000

2. Post five profitable days. A day counts when your net profit for that day is at least the qualifying minimum for your account size — $100 on the $25k, $150 on the $50k, $200 on the $100k. A green day below that minimum does not count toward the five. See Five Profitable Days.

3. Satisfy the 40% consistency rule. No single trading day may account for more than 40% of the total profit counted toward the target.

4. Never breach the maximum loss. Maximum loss is $1,000 on the $25k, $2,000 on the $50k and $3,000 on the $100k, enforced as an end-of-day trailing floor.


What Ends the Evaluation Early

There is no daily loss limit at any account size. A single bad day does not stop you out on its own. What ends the evaluation is your balance reaching the trailing drawdown floor.

The floor is measured against your end-of-day balance and trails upward as you profit. It stops trailing once it reaches your starting balance plus $100 — $25,100, $50,100 or $100,100 depending on your size. After that the floor is fixed and no longer follows new profit, so profit earned beyond that point is genuinely yours to risk. See EOD Trailing Drawdown.

An evaluation can also end through a rules breach rather than a loss — for example account sharing, coordinated trading across accounts, or exploiting a price or data feed. Those are covered in Good-Faith Trading and Prohibited Conduct, and what follows a breach is in What Happens When an Account Is Breached.


A Worked Example on the $50k Account

Your target is $3,000. The 40% consistency rule means no single day may contribute more than 40% of the profit counted toward that target — $1,200 on a $3,000 target.

A clean passing shape looks like this.

DayNet profitCounts as a profitable day?
Day 1$600Yes — clears the $150 minimum
Day 2$900Yes
Day 3$450Yes
Day 4$700Yes
Day 5$350Yes
Total$3,0005 of 5

The target is met, five days cleared the $150 minimum, and the largest day is $900 — 30% of $3,000, comfortably inside the 40% limit. A single $1,500 day inside the same $3,000 would be 50% and would not satisfy the rule.

Exactly how losing days, a mid-evaluation reset and a partially-completed run enter the consistency calculation is not yet settled. FPT will not guess at it here. The full treatment will be published in The 40 Percent Consistency Rule before launch.

Similarly, FPT has not published a calendar deadline for finishing an evaluation. The only day-count requirement stated today is the five profitable days. If a time limit applies, it will be published in Complete Evaluation Rules by Account Size before launch.


Position Limits Apply Throughout

Your maximum open size during evaluation is $1,000, $2,000 or $3,000 by account size. Separately, no position may exceed 5% of that market's trailing 24-hour volume. Your allowed position is whichever of the two is lower, and the trading system blocks an order that exceeds it. See Max Open Size and Market-Volume Limits.


What Happens When You Pass

Your account moves to Passed / Pending Funded Review. FPT reviews the run against the rules and verifies your identity before the funded account is activated — see Verification Before Funded Activation or Payout.

Once funded, the split is 90% to you, 10% to FPT, and a payout cycle is five qualifying days with the same 40% consistency rule applied to the cycle's profit instead of the evaluation target. Your max open size starts smaller than it was in evaluation and scales up with each approved payout.

The full picture is in What Happens After You Pass and Funded Account Rules.
