Most prop firms cap how much of your total profit one single day is allowed to account for. Enter your best day, your net profit across every trading day, and your firm's consistency cap to see exactly where you stand.

Your trading numbers

Your single largest net-profit trading day, across your whole track record (or whatever period your firm's payout window covers).
Your total net profit across every trading day in the same period -- add up every day's result, including losing days, not just your winning days.
The maximum share of total profit your firm allows from a single day -- check your firm's rules; this commonly runs 20-50% depending on the firm.

Your best day ($2,000.00) is 40% of your $5,000.00 net profit across all days, against a 40% cap. That is within your consistency limit.

Frequently asked questions

A cap on how much of your total profit is allowed to come from a single trading day, usually checked before a payout or before an evaluation is considered passed. Firms publish this as a percentage -- commonly 20-50% depending on the firm -- meaning your single best day cannot account for more than that share of everything you have made.

Your best-day share is your best day's profit divided by your NET profit across every trading day, including days you lost money -- not divided by only your winning days, and not divided by the firm's profit target. Dividing by a smaller, wins-only number understates your real share and can tell you that you are compliant when the firm's own math says you are not. A losing day lowers your net profit, which can push an otherwise fine best day over the cap.

Yes, and it is a meaningful number when it happens -- it means your other trading days were net negative overall, so your one profitable day is carrying more than all of your profit by itself. This calculator reports it as-is (for example 133% or 200%) rather than capping it at 100%, since the real number is what a firm actually checks.

Depends on the firm -- some only enforce it before a payout on a funded account, others enforce it during the evaluation too, and the percentage itself sometimes differs between the two. Check your specific firm's current rules for your account type; this calculator runs on whatever cap percentage you enter.
