Where a weekend book is allowed
Overnight and weekend holding is allowed on standard CFD evaluations and on funded tiers. That permission covers Friday into Sunday. It is the same permission on the evaluation and after you are funded, which is unusual next to firms that close the standard book and sell a separate swing add-on. Create your Venasri login and mark the account as a hold-through-Sunday book before you leave a gold or index runner on.
One minimum trading day means the calendar will not force you flat on Friday. The daily loss math will. A position that is green on Friday and red on Sunday spends Monday's allowance, because the gap is a loss inside the new day. The 5% figure on a 2-step account is $5,000 per $100K. A 1-step account's day is 4%, $4,000 on $100K.
Wednesday swap and the Sunday open
Triple-swap Wednesday charges are part of the same 5% bucket as the Sunday gap. A swing held from Tuesday through Thursday pays that swap out of the day's loss room even when price has not moved. Add the swap to the open loss before you decide the day still has $5,000 left.
The reset is 00:00 platform server time, built from day-start balance plus floating PnL. A winner you carry into that print changes the base the next 5% is taken from. Flat the runner, or cut it, if you want Monday to start from the closed balance. Equity Guard should use E8's 00:00, not a New York futures close and not a Prague clock from a different firm.
Static floor under a multi-day hold
Classic maximum loss stays where you set it, 8% to 14% of the starting balance. A weekend gap that is smaller than the daily line can still be the trade that walks a tired account into an 8% floor at $92,000 on $100K. E8 One's 6% trail, $6,000 on $100K, updates from the end-of-day balance, so a Friday close that is a new high lifts Monday's cushion.
Phase 2 only needs 4%, $4,000 on $100K. A weekend gap of a few thousand dollars can erase that whole second target and still look small next to a 14% slider. Size the hold for the 5% day, then check the slider. The wider floor is not a license for a larger Sunday position.
Funded news still wraps the swing
Evaluation steps allow news. Funded accounts restrict opening and closing during the five minutes before and after a high-impact release. A swing that is already open can still be stopped in that window, and the loss counts. Personal EAs and risk managers are allowed. HFT, latency arbitrage, and public signal copy-trading are prohibited.
Use Bot Control to block new funded entries in that five-minute window and to schedule a pre-00:00 reduction when floating PnL is large. The profit split is 80% up to 95% at checkout. Selected on-demand tiers add a 40% best-day rule, so one Sunday gap that you later recover in a single Monday spike can also stall a payout.
