Maven Trading Weekend Holding and Overnight Rules on a 4% Day

Direct Technical Answer

Maven Trading weekend holding and overnight rules let the 1-step path, the 2-step path, and the 3-step path carry positions into Sunday, and those gaps count against a 4% daily loss, $4,000 on $100K. Wednesday triple-swap charges land in that same bucket. The day resets at 00:00 from the higher of day-start balance or floating equity.

Fifteen dollars is the starting price of a Maven micro challenge, and the weekend permission is not reserved for the $379 $100K ticket. A small account still eats the gap as a percent of its own day. Zero minimum trading days means you are not required to hold Friday just to tick a calendar box.

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.

Frequently Asked Questions: Maven Trading Weekend Holding and Overnight Rules on a 4% Day

Does Maven allow weekend holding?

The 1-step path, the 2-step path, and the 3-step path may all carry a position into Sunday. Gaps and Wednesday triple-swap count toward the daily loss. On the 2-step that is 4%, $4,000 on $100K. On the 1-step the day is 3%, $3,000.

When does a Maven swing reset?

The daily loss resets at 00:00 from the higher of day-start balance or floating equity. A Friday winner still open at the print raises the next base. The 2-step static maximum, 8%, does not move with that float.

Do I have to hold overnight to satisfy Maven's calendar?

There is no minimum trading day. You do not need a weekend position to make a day count. The 80% split is paid every 10 business days. A hold is a risk choice, not a calendar requirement.

Can a weekend add breach Maven without hitting 4%?

Funded accounts cap one idea at 1% to 2% floating loss, and combined tickets on the same pair above 1.5% to 2.0% can fail the account while the 4% day is still intact. A Friday add on the same pair is the usual way that happens.
