Marketing vs. rule book

Page says: The consistency requirement for funded accounts is not named or quantified on any marketing/homepage.

Rules say: The actual threshold (40%, previously 35%) and its cutoff date of 2025-11-28 appear exclusively in a single Help Center article, not on the sales page or in the general FAQ on lucidtrading.com.
