5.00 lots is the FX unit and 2.00 lots is the gold unit
Enhanced daily loss is $10,000, 5% of $200,000. The static maximum is $20,000, so equity at $180,000 is the end. Phase 1 is $20,000 and Phase 2 is $10,000. Half a percent is $1,000. A 20-pip stop at $10 per pip needs 5.00 lots. A 50-pip gold stop at $10 per 0.10 move needs 2.00 lots. Both are exact. Neither is a license to stack a second symbol on the same US dollar view.
A 1.00 lot gold add-on feels small next to 5.00 lots of EURUSD. On a 50-pip stop it is another $500, half a unit, and it usually loses on the same dollar move. Two metals ideas at the full 2.00 lots are $2,000. Bot controls should treat highly correlated USD tickets as one $1,000 budget, not as two small ones.
Express at this balance is an $8,000 day
Express 1-Step daily loss is 4%, or $8,000, and the trailing maximum starts at 6%, or $12,000. The Enhanced $10,000 note is $2,000 past the Express day. Traders who scaled from $100,000 and kept a $5,000 mental stop are fine on Enhanced and late on Express. The trail also rises after a winning week, so the $12,000 starting hole is not a permanent box.
There is still no consistency score and no minimum day count. A $20,000 Phase 1 target can be attempted quickly. Ten net 2R winners on the $1,000 unit are about $20,000. Five losses at $2,000, the doubled unit people use when they are close, are the entire day. Sign up on Venasri and lock the unit before the target gets close enough to negotiate with.
A $6,000 float is real money at midnight
The 00:00 reading is balance. Open profit of $6,000 does not expand tomorrow's 5% until you close it. If you do close it, the next day is 5% of $206,000, or $10,300. If you hold it and it reverts, Monday can spend $6,000 of a $10,000 hole with no new decision. On a book this size the float looks like noise on the statement and it is most of a bad day.
Weekend holding remains an option you buy, not a default on every login. A Sunday gold gap of 80 pips on 2.00 lots is $1,600. Funded news rules add a two-minute restriction. An evaluation can hold the print, and the slip still hits the $10,000. Hantec Markets liquidity helps the ordinary spread. It does not cap a news wick.
Flatten near $8,500 and do not inherit a smaller account's guard
Equity Guard on Enhanced should flatten near $8,500, which is 4.25% of $200,000 and leaves $1,500 before the official $10,000. Express should flatten near $6,500 against the $8,000 day. A guard left at $4,250 from the old $100,000 account will flatten this book far too early, and a guard left at the official line will flatten it too late.
Instant is manual here too. Five lots of automation on an Instant login is a larger breach, not a more serious strategy. Where EAs are allowed, the 2,000 update ceiling still applies, and a 2.00 lot gold trail is loud. The $1,000 unit is the plan that makes ten losers equal the $10,000 day and twenty losers equal the $20,000 static floor.
