At Fintokei, we don’t just want to see that you can hit a number—we want to see how you trade to get there.
That’s why we require all traders to be active for at least 3 separate trading days before they can request a payout or pass an evaluation phase.
✅ What exactly counts as a trading day?
A trading day counts when:
• You open and close at least one position
• The trade(s) are executed with a real market outcome (i.e. not canceled or instantly closed)
• The day is separate from other trading days (you can’t open 3 trades on the same day and call it “3 days of trading”)
Trading day is UTC 0:00 to the next UTC 0:00
The 3-day rule applies to:
• StartTrader programs and virtually funded accounts
• ProTrader programs and virtually funded accounts
💡 Why we apply this rule
This rule exists to ensure that:
• You’re not completing the challenge or payout with one lucky trade
• Your trading shows some level of repeatability
• We have enough data to analyze your approach fairly
In short: it’s not just about if you made money—it’s about how you traded to get there.
⚠️ What if I only traded one or two days?
If you try to pass an evaluation or request a payout with fewer than 3 trading days:
• You’ll be asked to continue trading until the requirement is met
• You’ll keep your progress—nothing gets lost
• Once the 3 days are completed, the payout or progression will continue as normal
There’s no penalty—just a pause to make sure we’re evaluating you properly.
🧠 Final thought
This rule isn’t a blocker—it’s a safety net.
It protects the integrity of the platform, and it helps you build better trading habits.
📌 If your strategy is solid and repeatable, this rule will never get in your way.
And if you’re aiming for long-term consistency, then you’re already thinking the right way.
