Consistency rule replaces the Best Day rule on 1-Step orders

For new 1-Step FTMO Challenge orders created on or after 12 October 2026, and accounts merged from then, the best day is compared with total profit including losing days instead of positive-day profit only. FTMO itself calls this stricter; accounts from earlier orders keep the Best Day rule. FTMO's 1-Step launch post gives an editor's-note start date of 5 October, so the exact cut-off is inconsistent between two official pages.
