Twenty-five lots is not a style
The funded exposure example is 25 lots on $100K. A book can be green, inside the static 10% floor, and still be closed for that cap. The 0.35% to 0.65% cash band, $350 to $650, will not produce 25 lots on a normal stop. The cap catches the trader who sizes by the platform's maximum, not by cash at risk. Count lots as well as dollars.
Open a Venasri account and put a lot ceiling next to the dollar unit. The dollar unit on the pass plan is $500. If the lot required to risk $500 is already near a double-digit number, the stop is too tight or the symbol is the wrong one. Widen the stop or skip. Do not add tickets until you hit 25.
Under two minutes, and under 60 seconds
A funded book fails when most of its closes finish before two minutes have elapsed. Profit that mostly comes from sub-60-second trades fails it too. These are not the daily-loss rule. A perfectly risk-managed scalp can pass $5,000 of room and still be a breach. The 2,000 request cap is a third automation test. Fast trails collect all three.
Martingale and grid stacking are prohibited and are the usual way a small loss becomes 25 lots. Bot Control should refuse adds after a loss and should refuse a template whose average hold is inside the banned duration. Trade management is allowed. A manager that doubles size is not management.
Midnight is the higher number
At 00:00 the firm takes the higher of day-start balance or floating equity. A $2,000 open gold winner on a $100K Pro account makes the base $102,000 if equity is the higher figure. The next 5% is taken from that higher base, not from a flat $100,000. Give the $2,000 back after the print and you have spent a large piece of the new day while the closed balance may still look fine. The static fail line stays $90,000. The day is what moved.
Equity Guard needs ACG Markets midnight, GMT+2 or GMT+3. A guard set to 17:00 New York will miss it. Bank part of the float before the print if you want the profit in the closed balance and a clean $5,000 underneath. On One, also remember the 6% trail may step up at the same close.
The day, the window, the slider you did not buy
Pro's day is $5,000. One's day is $4,000. A 2-minute funded news window on Pro means a CPI click can be a breach even when the loss is small, and a slipped stop counts either way. Swing may trade the release. Weekend holds on Pro and Swing let a Sunday gap be the first trade of a rebased day. Three minimum days do not protect you from any of this.
The 80% split every 14 days, or on demand at 40%, never reviews a closed account. The $497 fee is replaced by a new fee. The hidden part is that the email says breach while the 10% floor still had room. Look at lots, duration, midnight equity, and the 5% day before you look at the $10,000 hole.
