4% cash, 0.5% days, 40% share
2-Step daily: 4% of the higher of balance or equity at 00:00 UTC+2/UTC+3. $4,000 on flat $100K. Static max $8,000 or $10,000. Targets $8,000 then $5,000. Payout gate: three days of $500+. Instant extra gate: one day not more than about 40% of cycle profit, with a 35% to 40% consistency score. 1-Step: still $4,000 daily, $6,000 EOD trail. Put those on one row so Pay-Later excitement does not hide Instant math.
Sub-2-minute profit share cannot exceed 50%. That is a third daily mix rule. 2,000 requests is a fourth. Goat daily planning is a dashboard, not a single $4,000 cell.
Hero day versus three $500 days
You make $4,800 on Tuesday on $100K Instant, nothing else in the cycle yet. 4% daily loss never came close (you won). 40% consistency already fails because Tuesday is 100% of profits. You also have only one 0.5% day toward the three-day on-demand clock, even though $4,800 is many 0.5% units, because it is one day. The calculator answer is: bank less today, or accept that Instant payout waits until more quiet days exist. 2-Step without Instant consistency would have called $4,800 a Phase 1 gift (8% is $8,000).
Partial the gold lot at +$1,200 to +$1,800 if you are on Instant and the cycle is young. That is not leaving money on the table. That is buying a withdrawal. You can start a free Venasri account and set a Goat Instant daily green cap that scales with cycle profit so 40% is visible before you click close.
Midnight float on a 4% hole
Higher-of midnight still applies. +$1,800 float into UTC+3 raises Wednesday's 4% hole. A $2,000 fade then spends half of Wednesday and can also wreck Instant consistency if Tuesday's booked number was already large. Partial before reset when float is fat relative to $4,000. 1-Step EOD trail can print a higher close that tomorrow must live under, which Instant traders who also bought 1-Step sometimes forget because they were staring at the 40% column.
Funded 2-minute news window profits may be excluded. Treat a CPI scalp as $0 in the payout calculator even if the daily cash calculator counted it as a win. That split-brain is Goat-specific when the add-on is off.
Loss guard, green cap, 0.5% counter
Venasri Equity Guard near $3,250 daily loss on $100K 2-Step. Instant/On-Demand: a profit cap that keeps any day under 35% of projected cycle profit. Three-day 0.5% counter on initial $100K ($500). 1-Step: also watch the $6,000 EOD trail. Pipe all of that through the ZeroMQ MT5 Bridge.
24/7 MT5 Bot Control should pause funded news-window entries, throttle sub-2-minute tickets, and halt at 1,800 server requests. Pay-Later does not belong in the guard. It belongs in your cash account when 4% prints. The $398 $100K headline is the cash price. The 40% Instant column is the behavioral price.
