Drawdown floors: initial, balance, equity
FTMO 2-Step and FundedNext Stellar 2-Step: DailyFloor = InitialBalance x (1 - DailyLoss%). FundingPips, The5ers High Stakes, Maven, Alpha Capital: DailyFloor = max(DayStartBalance, DayStartEquity) x (1 - DailyLoss%). E8 Classic: day-start closed balance. Worked FundingPips: $100,000 closed, +$4,200 float, 5 percent of $104,200 is a $98,990 floor. A pullback through that print breaches while you are still above $100,000 starting capital.
Futures calculators use dollars, not percents, on the same hub: Topstep $3,000 end-of-day trail on $100K, Apex $3,000 intraday trail. Do not feed those books the Forex 5 percent widget.
Consistency, Kelly, and streak capacity
Consistency extra profit = (BestDay / Ceiling) - TotalClosedProfit. Apex 30 percent, FundedNext and Alpha 40 percent, FundingPips Zero 45 percent, Topstep 50 percent. A $4,800 Monday on $9,200 total at 40 percent still needs $2,800 of smaller days. Kelly f-star = (W x R - (1 - W)) / R. At 55 percent and 1.80R, f-star is 30 percent, Quarter-Kelly 7.5 percent, still larger than a 5 percent daily rule, so live size stays 0.25 to 0.50 percent.
Streak capacity = floor(LimitPercent / RiskPercent). At 0.50 percent, a 5 percent daily holds 10 planned -1R stops, 8 if gold slippage averages -1.20R. After two losses, bandit scaling to 0.35 then 0.25 percent is how the cluster finishes inside the floor.
Lot identity before the New Order ticket
Lots = (Equity x RiskPercent) / (SL_points x $/point/lot). Gold 50 points at $500 risk is 0.10 lots. EURUSD 18 pips at $500 is 2.77 lots. NAS100 80 points at $500 is 6.25 lots. Clamp SL_points to STOPLEVEL before you trust the output, or MT5 will reject with 10016 and you will widen by hand into a larger dollar stop.
Pass-probability tools in this hub are Monte Carlo on your W, R, daily cap, and minimum trading days (4 at FTMO, 3 at FundingPips and The5ers, 5 at FundedNext Stellar, 2 at Topstep, 7 at Apex, 0 at Maven). They are not a promise. They are a check that 1.00 percent risk cannot survive a historically normal losing cluster.
