FTUK consistency rule

What the FTUK consistency rule actually measures

A consistency rule is a ratio test, not a profit limit. The firm divides your single largest winning day by the total profit in the withdrawal request. If that share is above the cap, the payout is held — not cancelled — until you add enough smaller winning days to bring the ratio back inside the limit. Nobody takes the big day away from you; you simply cannot cash it out on its own.

On FTUK there is no such ratio test: None on One Step and Two Step, plan-dependent on Instant. None on One Step/Two Step; plan-dependent on Instant. That is a genuine structural advantage for concentrated styles, and it is one of the reasons the firm scores 71/100 on our payout-evidence scale — fewer discretionary gates means fewer disputes.

What gates a FTUK payout instead

Without a consistency check the withdrawal chain on FTUK is short: reach the minimum funded days (~14), stay inside the static drawdown, clear KYC once, then request inside the on demand window. Processing is 2–5 business days after approval with a $50 minimum.

The remaining discretionary risk is trade-level, not ratio-level: news trading is conditionally allowed (Restrictions vary by plan — Instant plans are typically stricter than One Step/Two Step.). Those are the clauses that hold a FTUK withdrawal, not your distribution of daily profits.

• Withdrawal method: Bank wire
• Withdrawal method: Crypto (USDT/USDC)

How to fix a failed consistency check

A failed check is a timing problem, not a breach. Keep trading your normal size and let ordinary winning days dilute the outsized one; the ratio improves every session you add profit without a new record day. Do not deliberately lose money to "even out" the account — most rulebooks, FTUK's included, treat intentional loss-making as manipulation and it is one of the few things that voids a balance outright.

If you are close to the cap, request a smaller withdrawal. Many traders forget that the ratio is measured against the requested amount at some firms and against total account profit at others — where it is the request, a partial withdrawal both passes the check and gets money out of the firm's hands sooner, which is always the safer posture.

• Add smaller winning days rather than cutting the big one
• Never take an intentional loss to balance the ratio
• Request a partial payout when the ratio is borderline
• Recalculate before submitting — not after the hold email

Rule stability on FTUK

We have not logged a material rulebook revision for FTUK in the tracked period. That is a good sign, but consistency clauses change quietly — confirm the current wording before you submit a large request.
