TradeDay: rules card
Every TradeDay rule that decides whether a strategy fits, on one page with sources and a verification date. This is the reference; the how-to-pass guide is the walkthrough.
TradeDay rules at a glance
| Rule | Current terms |
|---|---|
| Drawdown (evaluation) | EOD trailing ($2,000 on 50K) on Fast Pass and Quick Pay EOD |
| Drawdown (funded) | EOD |
| Daily loss limit | $1,100 on 50K |
| Consistency | None on standard evaluation; 45% on Fast Pass since 26 July 2026 |
| Minimum days | 10 days on evaluation |
| Automation | Allowed; anti-HFT clauses |
| Payout | 80/20 split |
What this means for a systematic strategy
TradeDay runs end-of-day trailing across both stages, which puts it in the friendliest drawdown group, and permits automation under the standard anti-HFT boundary. The ten-day minimum is the longest in the group and matters for strategies that reach the target quickly; the 45% Fast Pass consistency rule is recent and worth re-checking, because it changed in July 2026.
