Halving the cap is not halving the plan
The working unit is 0.50% of $50,000, $250. At $5 per pip, which is 0.05 lots, a 50-pip stop is $250. Half of the 0.80 lot cap is 0.40 lots, $40 per pip, and 50 pips is $2,000, the entire day. The full 0.80 lot is the entire $4,000 static maximum. People halve a ceiling and think they were conservative. The ceiling was never the position. Sixteen $250 winners equal the Phase 1 target. You do not need the screenshot.
Start a Venasri account with 0.05 lots saved on this login only. The 0.35% to 0.65% band is $175 to $325 here. $250 sits in it. $2,000 does not. Eight losses at $250 are the daily line. Two of those days are the static floor. That is the whole evaluation's error budget.
Sixteen hundred dollars is the payout bruise
Equity Guard at 3.25% is $1,625, almost the 40% mark on a $4,000 cycle and $375 before the $2,000 loss print. Flatten losses at $1,625 using Equity Guard. Stop pressing a winner once the day is near $1,400 if you need the on-demand path, which still wants three separate days of $250, the 0.5% test. A $1,600 day checks neither the "small day" box nor the three-day box.
The 1-Step trails 6%, $3,000 at the start, which is tighter than the 2-Step static $4,000. A trader who loses $3,200 is finished on the 1-Step and still inside the 2-Step maximum, and either way the $2,000 daily line failed first if the loss was in one session. Do not buy the 1-Step and then use $4,000 as the mental floor.
Index points and gold pips share the $250
A 100-point NAS100 stop has to be $250, not $1,000, and it should be placed after the 13:30 UTC bar settles. If half the profit comes from scratches under two minutes, the $50K book fails the short-scalp test without touching $2,000. The 2,000 request cap is the same size as on a $100K account. It does not scale up because you paid for more balance. Editing two symbols through the open spends it just as fast.
Midnight still takes the higher of balance or equity. A +$700 float on $50,000 moves the next 4% base to $50,700. Weekend holding is allowed under standard margin limits. A gap at 0.40 lots is a $2,000-class event per 50 pips. Cut to 0.05 or be flat. Funded news profit in the 2-minute window can be excluded. The gap loss will not be.
This login is not a junior $100K
Bot Control should reject gold above 0.05 lots unless the stop dollar is still $250, flatten at $1,625, and keep the 13:30 UTC wait. The 80% payout, or 95% with the add-on, follows three real $250 days and a bi-weekly clock. Phase 2 is $2,500. The daily loss does not become $2,500 because the target did.
If a capital milestone later changes the balance, rebuild $250 from 0.50% of the new number. Until then, a $3,250 guard and a 0.10 lot are imports from a different contract. The $50K Goat account survives when it is sized as $50K, including the $1,600 profit ceiling that the loss rule will never warn you about.
