Trade The Pool: Minimum positions (not days)
Trade The Pool counts positions, not days. Day trade: minimum 20 positions (MAX) / 10 (FLEX) to qualify. Swing: minimum 5 positions. FLEX additionally requires 3 days of ≥0.5% profit per payout cycle.
What happens if you break it
Breaching this doesn't necessarily close the account, but it can disqualify the payout you were trading toward — you keep trading, the profit doesn't get paid.
