Goat Funded Trader Minimum Trading Days
Rules verified 2026-07-12 · official source
Goat Funded Trader has NO minimum trading days in the evaluation — you can pass in a single day.
What counts as a trading day
A day counts when you close at least one trade inside the firm's trading-day boundary (Goat Funded Trader resets at 17:00 America/New_York). Days don't need to be consecutive, and there's no minimum P&L per day — a tiny trade counts.
| Phase | Minimum days |
|---|---|
| Phase 1 | None |
| Phase 2 | None |
| Funded | None |
How traders actually breach it
The usual mistake is hitting the profit target early, stopping, and only then discovering the day count — or force-trading junk sessions just to log days and giving profit back. Know the count before you plan the pass.
TradersGuild tracks this rule live against your trade log and alerts you while there's still room — "you're $220 from the line" beats finding out from a breach email. Tracking is free for your first account.
