The published card, in cash you can actually lose
Double Helix is 5% daily and a static 10% maximum, so the lines are $5,000 and $10,000, with the account finished at $90,000 equity. Phase 1 is 10%, or $10,000. Phase 2 is 5%, or $5,000. Three minimum trading days apply. The 0.50% unit is $500, which is 2.50 lots on a 20-pip FX stop and 1.00 lot on a 50-pip gold stop. Those are the lots the rest of the internet copies onto smaller accounts. Here they are finally the right size.
They are right only at that stop distance. A 1.00 lot gold trade with a 100-pip stop is $1,000, which is 1%. Two of them are $2,000. DNA Markets will fill you at a tight spread and the wider stop will still be your choice. Bot controls should compute cash from the stop you placed, not from the lot you find familiar.
A $4,000 day is legal on Helix and toxic on Rapid
Rapid Challenge caps the best day at 40% of cycle profit. Forty percent of a $10,000 Phase 1 target is $4,000. A $4,200 gold expansion fails Rapid. The same day on Double Helix is simply a good day, provided you did not also violate the daily loss on the way down and provided the open remainder does not reprice midnight. People buy Rapid for a faster story and then trade the Helix size.
Single Helix is the other fork: 4% daily is $4,000, and the 6% maximum is $6,000, static or trailing as the contract states. Your $500 unit still fits, but you have fewer of them. Eight full losses are $4,000, which is the entire 1-step day. On Double Helix those eight losses are uncomfortable and still $1,000 inside the day. Know which invoice you paid before you count to eight.
The higher-of rule on a $3,500 gold float
At 00:00, GMT+2 or GMT+3, DNA Funded takes the higher of day-start balance or equity. Hold $3,500 of open profit and the next day can be anchored above $100,000. A fade of that float spends the new 5% budget even if you never go red versus the starting balance. The static $90,000 floor is a different test and it will not save you from the daily one. Book the portion you are unwilling to defend.
Weekend holding is permitted on both Helix books, so a Friday $3,500 runner is a Sunday gap problem as well. Funded accounts add a five-minute restriction around high-impact news. The evaluation may trade the release. Either way, a stop that slips counts immediately against the $5,000. Personal EAs are allowed. A third-party pass bot is not, and 2,000 server requests a day still applies if the trail is chatty.
Leave $750 between you and the $5,000 print
Equity Guard belongs at $4,250 of daily loss on Double Helix, 4.25% of $100,000. That $750 pocket is the spread and the slip, not spare risk for one more idea. On Single Helix set the guard near $3,250 because the official day is $4,000. After a scale or a payout that changes the balance, redo the dollar figure the same hour. A guard stuck at $4,250 on a larger book is too tight, and on a smaller book it is too late.
The $449 fee is lost when either line prints, daily or maximum. Open a Venasri account and attach the guard to this login before the first gold ticket, not after the first scare. Three minimum days mean you have time. You do not have a second $449 hidden inside the day you were willing to spend.
