Which Maven books may stay open
Holds are allowed on the 1-step, the 2-step, and the 3-step evaluations. Instant is a separate trailing product at 3%, and this permission is stated for the evaluation steps. If you are on Instant, read that dashboard before you carry risk into Sunday. On the 2-step, the day the gap spends is 4%. On the 1-step, the day is 3%, $3,000 on $100K, which is a smaller bucket for the same gap.
Create your Venasri login and name the step. A 3-step evaluation may be held. This page does not invent a 3-step loss percent. Use the loss line printed on that account, and still expect the gap to count as daily loss.
The higher-of print at 00:00
Saturday and Sunday do not pause the higher-of rule if the position is open. At 00:00 the base becomes the higher of balance or equity. A Friday winner raises the next base. The Sunday gap then spends a day that was rebuilt around that winner. Flat part of the position if you want the profit closed and the next 4% measured from the balance.
Equity Guard should follow Maven's 00:00, not a futures close. On a $100K 2-step account the official day is $4,000 only when the base is flat at $100,000. A $1,500 float at the print changes the arithmetic. The static 8% floor, $8,000, stays on the starting balance and is a different line.
Swap, news, and the idea cap
Wednesday triple-swap is a debit inside the 4% day even when price is unchanged. Add it to open loss before you call the day intact. Funded accounts also use a news window of 2 to 5 minutes around red-folder events. A weekend hold that runs into Monday's data can meet that window. A stop that fills counts toward the day and toward the 1% to 2% floating cap on one idea.
Combined tickets on the same pair above 1.5% to 2.0% can fail a funded account while the 4% day looks fine. A Friday add 'to give the swing room' is how that cap gets hit. Bot Control can block the add and can reduce the hold before 00:00.
Payouts do not require the hold
The split is 80%, every 10 business days. There is no minimum trading day pushing you to stay in the market over the weekend so a day 'counts.' Instant's 20% consistency score is a different pressure: a Sunday gap that becomes a huge Monday winner can be too large a share of Instant profit. Evaluation steps do not use that 20% score.
Platforms are MT5, Match-Trader, cTrader, and TradeLocker. Personal non-HFT managers are allowed. A manager that grids a Friday loser into Sunday is the prohibited grid recovery, and the gap will mark it. The $379 fee bought the exam. The 4% day is what the hold has to fit.
