The dollar cards do not survive a swap of names
Gold 1-Step daily loss is 4%. Silver daily loss is 5%. On $100,000 that is $4,000 and $5,000. Gold maximum loss is 6% and trails. Silver maximum loss is a static 10%, so $90,000 equity ends the account and a green week does not pull that number up. Bronze and Copper sit with Silver on the static 10% and the 5% day. They add more steps. They are not quieter versions of Gold.
Silver Phase 1 is 8%, or $8,000, and Phase 2 is 5%, or $5,000, with four minimum trading days. The first target is smaller than the static maximum, by $2,000. You are asked to make $8,000 on a book that dies at $10,000 down, and then to make another $5,000. Gold skips the second phase and lives inside a hole that two full days of its own 4% limit would already have exceeded.
Fewer phases comes with a shorter streak
A trader who wants one target often buys Gold and then sizes as if the day were $5,000. Two losses of 1% are $2,000, half of a Gold day. A third 1% loss leaves only $1,000, and a full 1% beyond that ends it. The same three $1,000 losses on Silver use $3,000 of a $5,000 day and leave $2,000, with a $10,000 static floor still far away if the account started from the initial balance. Silver asks for more profit and more days. It also forgives a larger red day.
Both paths still require a stop on every trade. A missing stop fails Gold and Silver alike. Full automated bots are restricted on RF-Trader, while a risk helper that attaches the stop is permitted, and order modifications are limited on either program. Bot controls need the program name before they accept a lot. A 2.50 lot, 20-pip FX stop is $500 on both balances, and that $500 fits fewer times inside $4,000 than inside $5,000.
The 50% cap, the fee refund, and the trail do not swap
Multi-step plans cap one trade at 50% of cycle profit. Silver carries that cap. A single winner above $4,000 on an $8,000 cycle can stall the file. Gold 1-Step needs its own reading for any similar term. The funded two-minute news window applies on the funded stage of either path. Weekend holding depends on the tier, not on whether you chose one step or two. Wednesday swap and Sunday gaps count toward whichever daily percent you bought.
The split starts at 75% and can scale to 90%, paid every 14 days. Copper and Silver can return up to 200% of the challenge fee after a pass. The published $100,000 fee is $380, so the refund can reach $760. Those are commercial terms. A Gold account that trails its 6% maximum up after a peak does not inherit Silver static floor because a refund is pending. The loss line you passed under is the loss line you keep until the firm changes the balance.
Choose the program, then set a different flatten
Equity Guard on Silver belongs near $4,250 of daily loss on $100,000, inside the $5,000 day. Gold belongs near $3,250, inside the $4,000 day. Using the Silver flatten on Gold means the firm can end the account at $4,000 while the guard is set $250 higher, at $4,250, and therefore never fires in time. The trail on Gold also needs a fresh look after a new peak, because 6% under that peak may now be the binding floor.
Open a Venasri account and write Gold or Silver into the profile before the first order. Four minimum trading days apply on the firm path, so the Silver 8% then 5% targets are a multi-day job at a $500 unit. Gold is a shorter contract with less air. Give each purchase its own risk card if you later add the other one.
