It is important that trade sizes are consistent throughout the evaluation stages so that FPT are able to analyse the traders strategy over a minimum 5 day period. The notional trade size must be considered by you when trading across different asset classes as the smallest trade executed during each phase of the challenge must be no smaller than 65% of the notional size of the largest trade executed during each stage of the challenge.
At the end of stage 2, the trades for either evaluation phase are anaysed by our trade review team to ensure that all of the rules have been adhered to in both stages and no breaches have occurred. This review takes up to 3 working days to complete.
