The rule is a stop at the fill
EAs are allowed when every position carries a hard stop where the tier requires one. The gap between the click and the stop is the breach. A ZeroMQ connection to the MT5 login lets the attach happen as the order fills, including on a phone entry that you did not babysit. Daily loss is 4%, $4,000 on $100K. Prestige's static maximum is 10%, $10,000. Experienced and Master trail 6%. A naked gold lot can touch the day before you remember the stop.
On a $500 plan, EURUSD at 20 pips is 2.50 lots and gold at 50 pips is 1.00 lot. Those are the distances to attach, not distances to "add if it goes." Equity Guard flattens at $3,250 so the day ends with room. The per-trade stop is still the first exit. The guard is the session exit.
Breakeven and four partials before midnight
After the first target, the stop moves to breakeven plus a small buffer, and the rest scales across the remaining targets. That sequence matters on Prestige because weekend holds are allowed and the 00:00 reset uses day-start balance and equity. Banking part of a winner before the snapshot keeps the next 4% from being computed off a float you did not mean to donate. Selected trailing programs restrict the hold, so the same partial may need to be a full flatten on Friday.
Step the stop at the partial. Do not rewrite it on every tick. The ceiling is 2,000 order requests a day. A chatty trail can spend that budget and still miss the wick. Bot Control can pause entries after a loss and can scale Prestige winners before 00:00. Evaluation news is permitted. The funded tier may differ, and the stop should already be on before you find out.
Three other platforms, the same dollars
If the live book is on cTrader, Match-Trader, or DXtrade, copy the MT5 prices across at the fill. The bridge does not invent a stop the other platform never received. The 4% day and the hard-stop rule do not care which front end you clicked. A 1.00 lot gold idea without a stop is the same $500 plan only while the market is kind.
There is no minimum trading-day count, so you can rehearse the attach on a tiny test before the $499 fee is doing real work. Confirm breakeven waits for the first target and that partials reduce size instead of closing the idea in one print. Then set the daily flatten and, if you are on Experienced, a separate awareness of the $6,000 trail. Prestige's $10,000 floor does not belong on that second profile.
Leave the setup alone once it is proved
The 80% split, scaling toward 90% and 100%, is requested every 7 days from day 7 or from day 0 on selected programs. Changing the stop logic the night before a payout is how a working attach becomes a naked ticket. Keep 2.50 FX lots and 1.00 gold lot as the $100K defaults. An EA may enter. It may not skip the stop, and it may not double the lot after a loss.
Open a free Venasri account and run one test fill before the funded password arrives. If the stop is on the ticket, the breakeven is patient, and the request count for that test is boring, the setup matches the rule. If any of those three is exciting, fix it while the account balance is still a demo habit.
