What is Apex Trader Funding's new Consistency Rule?

Best single day can't exceed 50% of total net profit at payout request. Applies first six payouts; drops after.

Who benefits most from Apex 30% to 50% change?

Lucky-day scalpers qualify faster. Grinders unchanged. Apex gains longer capital hold.

No — more qualifiers mean longer queues, bigger firm float.

Prop traders braced for ironclad rules at Apex. Then bam—Consistency Rule doubles to 50%. Scalpers cheer, but the math favors the firm's wallet.
