What is the minimum profitable days requirement for the CFDs Prime Challenge?

CFDs Prime Challenge – Minimum Profitable Days

To successfully meet the trading objectives in a CFDs Prime Challenge, traders must achieve a minimum of 3 profitable trading days.

What is a profitable day?

A profitable day is when your account shows a gain of at least 0.5% of the initial balance, based on the lower of your balance or equity at midnight compared to the previous day’s balance.

Minimum of (Midnight Balance, Midnight Equity) – Previous Day’s Balance > 0.5% of initial balance

Note: "Midnight" refers to the end-of-day cutoff, which occurs at 16:15 CT (Central Time).

Example:
An account has an initial balance of $100,000.

  • Previous day balance: $100,000
  • End-of-day balance: $101,000
  • End-of-day equity: $100,600
  • 0.5% of initial balance: $500

To determine if the day is profitable, we calculate:
Minimum of (End-of-day balance, End-of-day equity) – Previous day balance
= Min($101,000, $100,600) – $100,000
= $100,600 – $100,000 = $600

Since $600 > $500, this qualifies as a profitable day.


The profitable days do not need to be consecutive.

This requirement is designed to promote consistent and sustainable trading performance.
