What 100%, 90%, 14 days, and 5 winning days each change
The first $10,000 of funded profit is paid at 100%. Profit past that bucket is paid at 90%, so a $10,400 funded result is $10,000 plus $360, not $10,400. Expert withdrawals sit on a 14-day cycle. Starter withdrawals wait until you have 5 winning days, and the best of those days cannot be more than 40% of the profit being requested.
Neither calendar widens the trail. Expert does not add a separate intraday daily loss limit. The line that ends the account is the end-of-day trailing drawdown: $3,000 on $100,000, a published band of $1,500 to $2,000 on $50,000, and $4,500 on $150,000. The trail can lock at the starting balance plus $100. On a $100,000 Expert account that lock price is $100,100.
Expert can finish in one day, and Starter can fail a green day
Expert has no best-day share, and the minimum is one trading day. The target is 6%, which is $6,000 on $100,000, with no second profit target after it. Starter keeps the 40% share. On that same $6,000 target, a $2,500 session is already about 42% of the cycle. The trail can be untouched and the payout can still wait.
News is allowed in the evaluation. Funded Starter and sim-funded tiers add restrictions around Tier-1 releases. The listed fee on a $100,000 evaluation is $150, which is small next to a $3,000 trail and large enough that people try to win it back in one opening drive. Bot controls should cap contracts before 9:30 AM ET, while the scale request is still a future event.
The next allocation needs a new 0.50% unit
On $100,000 the working unit is $500, half of 1%. That is one E-mini Nasdaq at a 25-point stop, or five micro Nasdaq contracts at a 50-point stop. A $150,000 allocation is not the same ticket. Half of 1% there is $750, and the trail listed for that balance is $4,500. Carrying the old five-micro cap into the new account is how the first week of a scale ends.
Futures positions have to be closed before the Friday afternoon CME close. The daily mark is 4:10 PM ET, with Globex rollover near 5:00 PM ET. A runner held so the scale screenshot looks larger can be the equity the trail steps up from. Bank the closed profit the next balance will be judged on.
Flatten near $2,250 before you ask for more capital
Equity Guard on a $100,000 Expert account should flatten near $2,250 of drawdown, leaving $750 before the $3,000 trail. On $50,000, use about $1,125 until the dashboard confirms whether your contract is the $1,500 trail or the $2,000 trail. Expert will not warn you with a second bucket called a daily loss limit. The trail is the whole budget, and it can be spent in a single session.
Change the dollar stop on the morning the new balance posts. Open a Venasri account and store Expert and Starter as separate cards. One card can pass in a day. The other can reject a payout because one session owned more than 40% of the profit, even though the trail never came close to $3,000.
