0.25 lots is $50 and 0.30 lots is a different plan
Classic daily loss is $500. The static maximum is $1,000, so equity at $9,000 ends the evaluation. Half a percent is $50. At $10 per pip, 0.25 lots with a 20-pip stop cost $50. Gold needs 0.10 lots on a 50-pip stop for the same $50, at $10 per 0.10. Both numbers are round, which is why the platform invites a nudge. A nudge to 0.30 FX lots is $60. Eight of those are $480 on paper and a breach once spread is included.
Phase 1 is $1,000 and Phase 2 is $800, with four minimum days. At 2R the $50 unit returns about $100, so Phase 2 is on the order of eight net winners after the losers. Spending a full $500 day to speed that up spends half the lifetime floor in one session. Bot controls should reject anything above $50 of computed stop risk, including the second ticket that feels like a scale-in.
One Phase dies at $400 while your note still says $500
One Phase daily loss is 4%, or $400. The maximum is a 6% end-of-day trail, about $600 at the start. A Classic mental model is already $100 through the official day. A close at $10,400 puts a 6% trail near $9,776, so a winning day reduced the hole you thought was fixed at $9,000. Classic would still be judging you against $9,000. That is the whole product difference at this size.
The payout trigger, once funded, is 1%, or $100. An 80% split is $80. A best day of $70 inside that $100 fails a 45% score until the pool is larger, about $156 if $70 is the peak. Create a Venasri login and keep Fast Track, Classic, and One Phase as separate cards. The balance is $10,000 on all three. The death line is not.
A $400 open winner is 4% and it will reprice midnight
The 00:00 snapshot, UTC+2 or UTC+3, adds floating equity to the next reference. A $400 gold winner is 4% of this account. Hold it through the clock and a full giveback is $400 of the next $500 hole before you click. That is almost the day, donated by a trade you already counted as a win in your head. Partial it. Leave a runner only if the runner is small next to $500.
Weekend holding is Swing only. A 60-pip gap on 0.10 lots of gold is $60, more than one unit, and it prints before London. Without Swing permission the hold can end the account with a smaller gap than that. Wednesday swap counts toward the same $500. Funded news is a 2-minute window, and a slipped stop is still a debit. Tight spreads are not a gap guarantee.
Use $425 on Classic and about $325 on One Phase
Equity Guard on Classic should cut near $425, leaving $75 before $500. On One Phase put it near $325 against the $400 day. Do not paste a $4,250 level from a $100,000 guide. This account cannot lose $4,250. It will be closed at one tenth of that, or sooner.
Personal advisors are allowed. The funded stop is still mandatory, and 2,000 requests a day still binds a 0.10 lot trail. Forty-five percent of the $1,000 Phase 1 target is $450. A $480 day can trouble Fast Track while remaining inside a $500 loss line if the sign flips. The quarter lot is the whole strategy. The rest is refusing to improve it.
