FTMO $10K Blueprint Updated 2026-10-17 Verified Against Venasri MT5 Engine

FTMO $10K account risk plan where the $1,000 floor matches Phase 1

Direct Technical Answer

$1,000 does double duty on the FTMO $10K account risk plan: it is the 10% maximum loss and it is also the Phase 1 target. The daily line is $500. The trade unit is $50. Phase 2 asks for 5%, another $500, the same cash as one full daily loss.

This balance is the first size where the lifetime floor and the Phase 1 target are the same four-figure number. Making $1,000 is the goal, and losing $1,000 in total is the end. The day dies much earlier, at $500.

One bad day equals the Phase 2 target

Phase 2 is 5%, or $500, which matches the daily loss exactly. A single full breach on the 2-Step path erases a Phase 2 campaign in one Prague session. If you start a free Venasri account, separate the $500 day from the $1,000 lifetime floor in the notes you keep beside the platform.

The daily figure resets at 00:00 CE(S)T from the day-start balance plus floating profit and loss. Ten losses at $50 consume the day. The 1-Step alternative is a 3% day, $300 on this balance, with a 10% maximum that trails at the end of the day rather than staying static.

Four days still apply at $10,000

The minimum is four trading days. Nothing in the size reduces that count or the 10% then 5% targets. There is no hard consistency percentage. A single ticket that produces most of the $1,000 can still be reviewed. $50 a trade is the unit that keeps one click from being that ticket.

The static floor does not move up after a green week on the 2-Step path. You can be up $700 and still only be $1,000 away from failure measured from the start, while the day you are in is capped at $500 from the morning balance. Equity Guard watches the day, not the congratulations screen.

News, weekend, and swap do not shrink with the account

Standard funded accounts flatten before the weekend and restrict red-folder news in the 2-minute window on each side of the release. Swing holds at 1:30 maximum leverage. Wednesday triple-swap and the Sunday gap count inside the $500. A gap that would be noise on a larger book can be the day here.

The gold lot band of 0.80 to 1.45 is a $100,000 figure. On this plan the cash unit is $50. Build the gold lot from that cash and from a 50 to 70 pip stop only if the result still fits inside $500. Do not inherit the larger account's volume.

2,000 requests, and a float that rebases $500

The modification ceiling stays 2,000 requests a day on MT5, MT4, cTrader, and DXtrade. Open MT5 bot control and spend those requests on a stop and a few partials, not on a trail that rewrites every point. The published $540 fee belongs to the $100,000 evaluation, not to this size.

A closed winning day with open profit at Prague midnight makes the next $500 allowance start from the new balance. A $200 giveback is 40% of the next day. Flat the runner or treat the hold as tomorrow's risk on purpose.

Frequently Asked Questions: FTMO $10K account risk plan where the $1,000 floor matches Phase 1

What is the maximum loss on an FTMO $10,000 account?

A static 10% on the 2-Step path, which is $1,000 from the initial balance. Phase 1 is also $1,000. The daily loss is $500. Phase 2 is $500, so one full losing day matches the entire second target.

How much is 0.50% risk on FTMO $10K?

$50. Ten full losses at that unit equal the $500 daily line. The 1-Step daily line on this balance is $300, because that path uses 3% instead of 5%.

Does a $10,000 FTMO account get fewer minimum days?

No. The published minimum is four trading days, with Phase 1 at 10% and Phase 2 at 5%. The size changes the dollars, not the day count, the Prague reset, or the 2,000 request ceiling.

What happens if a winner is open at FTMO midnight on $10K?

The next daily allowance is measured from the closed day-start balance plus the floating profit and loss. A giveback after 00:00 CE(S)T spends the new $500, even if yesterday's closed result was already a win.
