A day counts toward your five days only when the account's net profit for that day reaches the account's qualifying amount. There are three amounts, one per account size, and they apply in both stages of FPT Scale.
| Account | Qualifying amount | Counts toward |
|---|---|---|
| $25k FPT Scale | $100 | 5 profitable days (evaluation) and 5 qualifying payout days (funded) |
| $50k FPT Scale | $150 | 5 profitable days (evaluation) and 5 qualifying payout days (funded) |
| $100k FPT Scale | $200 | 5 profitable days (evaluation) and 5 qualifying payout days (funded) |
The number of days required — five — is the same everywhere. Only the per-day amount changes with account size.
Why the Amount Scales With the Account
The qualifying amount is proportional to the account it belongs to. On the $50k account the $150 minimum is a small fraction of the $3,000 profit target; on the $25k it is $100 against a $1,250 target. The intent is the same in each case: a qualifying day should be a real day of work, not a rounding error, and it should mean roughly the same thing on a small account as on a large one.
That is also why the funded stage reuses the evaluation numbers instead of inventing a second set. What made a day count while you were proving yourself is what makes a day count once you are paid.
Net for the Day, Not Per Trade
The amount is measured against the day's net result, not against any individual position.
Worked example on the $100k account, where the minimum is $200:
| Position | Result |
|---|---|
| First market | +$340 |
| Second market | -$210 |
| Third market | +$95 |
| Day net | +$225 |
The day's net is $225, which is above $200, so the day qualifies. Had the second position lost $260 instead, the day would have netted $175 and would not have counted — even though the first position on its own cleared the minimum.
Exactly at the Minimum
A day that lands exactly on the amount qualifies. On the $50k account, a day netting exactly $150 counts. The rule is "at least the qualifying amount", not "more than".
A Day That Misses Costs You Nothing
Missing the minimum is not a breach and does not reset anything. The day simply is not one of your five. You keep the qualifying days already recorded and carry on. There is no time limit forcing the five days into a fixed window.
The only rules that can actually end an account are the maximum loss and the conduct rules — see Maximum Loss and Good-Faith Trading and Prohibited Conduct.
The Minimum Interacts With Consistency
Reaching the minimum on five days is one requirement. The 40% consistency rule is another, and the two pull in opposite directions if you trade unevenly.
Consider a $25k funded cycle with four days at exactly $100 and one day at $900. Total cycle profit is $1,300, and the largest day is $900 — about 69% of the cycle. That fails the 40% test even though all five days qualified. Detail and worked examples are in The 40% Consistency Rule.
Days of similar size clear both rules at once.
Where to See Your Count
The account dashboard tracks qualifying days for the current stage and shows the amount your account size requires. The full payout sequence that the count feeds into is in Payout Rules and Review.
Choosing between the three sizes — and therefore between the three minimums — is covered in Compare $25k, $50k and $100k FPT Scale.
