The5ers NAS100 and US30 Index Scalping Rules: NY Cash Open Execution & Drawdown Control

Direct Technical Answer

The5ers NAS100 and US30 index scalping rules require a hard stop-loss on every Bootcamp fill, including a 60 point Nasdaq stop at entry. After the 13:30 UTC whip candle settles, size NAS100 and US30 for 60 to 100 points. Anti-hyperactivity still applies, and a naked scalp fails Bootcamp even if the 5% daily loss is untouched.

Bootcamp will fail a NAS100 ticket that prints without a stop, even when the point move never reaches the 5% daily line. The5ers NAS100 and US30 index scalping rules still ask you to let the 13:30 UTC whip candle settle, then use 60 to 100 points of structure. High Stakes can carry the position over a weekend. Bootcamp cannot carry it naked.

When a naked index fill fails Bootcamp

The5ers is MT5 only, based in Raanana and founded in 2016. On Bootcamp, a position without a hard stop-loss is a compliance breach, separate from the 5% daily loss. A NAS100 or US30 order that fills at the cash open and sits without a stop is already outside that contract. Manual Trade Guard puts the stop on the ticket at the fill so the rule is not something you remember after the whip.

High Stakes does not use that same naked-ticket ban. It still uses a 5% daily loss and a static 10% maximum. Risk-management EAs and self-owned EAs are permitted. Copy-trading signals shared across unrelated users are prohibited. If the index method is yours, it can run on MT5. A public signal shared with strangers cannot.

The 13:30 UTC candle and the point stop

The New York cash open is 13:30 UTC, 9:30 AM ET. The first whip candle on NAS100 and US30 regularly trades both sides. The5ers index scalping waits for that candle to settle, then uses a structural stop of 60 to 100 points. Entering while the candle is still forming is how a planned stop becomes the whole daily loss.

Anti-hyperactivity still applies on Bootcamp. A trail that rewrites the stop on every tick can fail the account while the 5% line is untouched. Stage the stop once. The $100,000 High Stakes fee is $495, and the daily cash line on that size is $5,000. The point stop has to risk a fraction of that line.

News orders, weekend holds, and three 0.5% days

High Stakes allows an open index position through high-impact news. A new order, or a bracket straddle, in the 2 minute window before or after a red-folder release is prohibited. Overnight and weekend holding is permitted on High Stakes, Bootcamp, and Hyper Growth. A Sunday gap still spends the next 5% daily loss.

High Stakes also requires three profitable days, each at least 0.5% of initial balance. On $100,000 that day is $500. One open that pays the entire 8% Phase 1 target does not replace those three days. Phase 2 is 5%. Minimum trading days are three. Create a Venasri account if you want those day counts kept next to the index book.

The midnight equity line on an index hold

Daily loss uses the higher of day-start balance or floating equity at 00:00 MT5 server time, GMT+2 in winter and GMT+3 in summer. A green NAS100 runner at midnight raises the next session's 5% floor. Equity Guard should watch the account you bought: 5% on High Stakes, 3% daily and 6% maximum if the book is Hyper Growth.

Keep Bootcamp and High Stakes as separate profiles. Bootcamp must refuse a naked fill. High Stakes must block new orders in the 2 minute news window and still count three 0.5% days. The static 10% High Stakes floor on $100,000 is $10,000, and a weekend index gap can reach it if the daily line was already raised by floating equity.

Do The5ers NAS100 scalps need a stop-loss?

Bootcamp requires a hard stop-loss on every position, including NAS100 and US30. A naked fill is a compliance breach even when the 5% daily loss is untouched. High Stakes does not use that same naked-ticket rule, but a 60 to 100 point stop is still the structure after the 13:30 UTC candle settles.

What time is the The5ers index open?

The cash open referenced for NAS100 and US30 scalps is 13:30 UTC, 9:30 AM ET. The rule is to let the opening whip candle settle before the 60 to 100 point stop is placed. Anti-hyperactivity still applies if the stop is rewritten on every tick.

Can The5ers index trades be held over the weekend?

Yes. Overnight and weekend holding is permitted on High Stakes, Bootcamp, and Hyper Growth. Sunday gaps still count toward the 5% daily loss, which resets at 00:00 MT5 time from the higher of balance or floating equity. New orders inside 2 minutes of a red-folder release are prohibited on High Stakes.

High Stakes requires three profitable days, each at least 0.5% of initial balance, which is $500 on $100,000. Phase 1 is 8% and Phase 2 is 5%, with a minimum of three trading days. A single cash-open winner does not replace the three-day requirement.
