The target sits $100 inside the floor
Start at $5,000. The static floor is $4,500. Phase 1 wants $5,400. There is $500 of pain available and $400 of profit required, so the cushion beyond the target, measured from the start, is $100 of extra loss room you should never use. Sixteen wins at $25, with no losses, equal the $400 target, which matches the 10 to 16 trade plan at 0.50% when every ticket is a one-times winner. Ten losses at $25 equal the $250 day. Twenty equal the $500 floor.
1-Step uses the same 5% and the same static 10% on this firm, so this dollar card does not loosen if you skip a phase. Two full daily losses are the entire maximum. There is no third $250 day.
A token lot is a large share of $250
Trade2Earn mints tokens on every closed lot. On $5,000 an extra gold idea is not a rounding error. At $10 per 0.10 move on 1.00 lot, a 50 pip stop on 0.05 lots is $25. The $100,000 band of 0.80 lots is $400 of risk at that stop, which is most of the $500 floor and more than the $250 day. Do not import that band.
You can open a Venasri account and pin $25 as the only cash stop on this login. Five minimum trading days still apply. There is no best-day cap on the standard 2-Step, and there is also no room to "make it back" inside the same $250.
Flatten near $212, not at $250
4.25% of $5,000 is $212.50. The official line is $250. The gap is $37.50, about one and a half $25 tickets. Waiting for the firm means the account is already dead. The reset is 00:00 CE(S)T from the higher of balance or equity. A $60 float into midnight is a quarter of the next day if the snapshot uses it.
Set the lock on Equity Guard at that 4.25% cash figure and move it if the snapshot base changes. The static floor at $4,500 is the wrong intraday alarm. You will hit $250 first.
Same 2,000 messages as a large account
The message cap is 2,000 a day on MT5, cTrader, and DXtrade, and it does not shrink or grow with a $5,000 balance. Personal EAs are allowed. HFT, latency arbitrage, and group copy-trading are not. A tick trail on 0.05 lots is still a tick trail. Funded news is still five minutes each side of a red-folder print.
Bot Control should size entries to $25 and refuse a second ticket that puts another $25 in play while the first is open, because two of them are already a fifth of the day. The 80% split comes later, every 14 days, or every 7 with the add-on. It is not a feature of a blown $250 morning.
