The five-minute burst after a stop
The pattern is three or more trades in a five-minute span once a loss has printed. It is not a new setup. It is the same idea repeated because the first result felt unfair. If you start a free Venasri account, decide the next legal entry time before the session, so the burst has nowhere to go.
On a 2-Step day the cash line is 5%. On a 1-Step day it is 3%. The same three-trade burst reaches the tighter line sooner. Correlated gold and index tickets opened together count as one emotional decision even when the platform shows three tickets.
Widening the stop and editing it again a minute later
Moving the stop farther away after the fill increases the cash risk without a new plan. Doing that in a string of edits about 60 seconds apart also burns the 2,000 order and modification request ceiling. You can fail the request cap before the price hits the new stop.
A stop that was 0.50% and becomes 1.20% is no longer the trade you sized. Equity Guard does not repair a stop you have already dragged. It can only flatten when the day's loss reaches the level you set under the official 5% line.
Averaging down and doubling the lot
Adding to a loser, or jumping past twice the planned lot, is the same leak in two shapes. The second ticket is not a hedge if it needs the first idea to be right. On $100,000, a planned $500 risk that becomes $1,000-plus is already outside a 0.50% unit, and two of those can take a serious bite from the $5,000 day.
FTMO can flag extreme single-ticket gambling even without a hard consistency percentage. A doubled lot that happens to win can become the review problem on a payout later. The funded split starts at 80% and can scale toward 90%, but only if the account is still alive.
Flatten the day before the fifth leak
Standard funded accounts add a 2-minute window on each side of red-folder news, and they must be flat before the weekend. A revenge entry into that window fails two rules at once. Use MT5 bot control to stop new tickets after the loss, and keep Swing's 1:30 leverage from becoming an excuse to size up because the hold is legal.
The static 10% floor will not save a day that already lost 5%. Revenge is a daily-limit problem first. The lifetime floor is what you hit only if you repeat the pattern on a later day.
