The basic calculation
Divide your largest winning day by the profit total specified in your plan, then multiply by 100. If your best day is $1,800 and the relevant profit total is $4,800, your consistency percentage is 37.5%. Under a rule that allows 40% or less, this meets the selected consistency condition.
The minimum profit total is your best day divided by the allowed fraction: $1,800 ÷ 0.40 = $4,500. Your $4,800 total is already above that amount. A plan that requires strictly below 40% needs a total above $4,500, rather than exactly $4,500.
Use your plan’s profit total
Some rules use net profit, including losing days. Others use the sum of positive days. These are different denominators, so the same trading history can produce different percentages.
| Daily results | Net profit | Positive-day profit |
|---|---|---|
| +$1,800, +$1,500, +$1,500, −$600 | $4,200 | $4,800 |
With these results, the $1,800 best day is 42.86% of net profit and 37.5% of positive-day profit. Use the official definition for your exact plan, including how commissions and other adjustments affect daily results.
Winning trades and retained profit
Some The5ers accounts add winning trades only. A day with +$1,000, +$500, −$300 and +$200 contributes $1,700 to consistency, although its net profit is $1,400. In the calculator, enter the winning-trade total for each day.
Some funded plans include profit retained after a withdrawal. For these plans, Daily mode provides a retained-profit field. That amount adds to total profit without becoming a new best day. Plans with an all-time best day also provide a separate field for the historical record.
The calculation window matters
Your plan may measure an evaluation, a funded stage, or the period since a payout request. Use the best day and profit total from the same required window. A payout can change the window; it does not always reset it in the same way.
A losing day can reduce net profit without changing your best day. This can push the ratio above 100%. For example, a $1,800 best day divided by $1,200 of remaining net profit is 150%. That is a meaningful result, not an invalid input. When the denominator is zero or negative, a normal positive consistency percentage cannot be calculated.
What “additional profit” means
The displayed gap assumes your best day stays unchanged. It is the mathematical difference between your current total and the required total. It does not mean earning that amount today will meet the rule: today's combined result might become a new best day and raise the target again.
Consistency is one condition
Consistency measures the distribution of your profit. Firms also set trading-day requirements, profit targets and payout amounts; the plan source lists these alongside its consistency rule.
