What a 10% milestone actually does
High Stakes doubles allocation on every 10% milestone, with a published path up to $4,000,000. On a $100,000 book, 10% is $10,000 of profit made without a breach. That is the first doubling step. The static 10% maximum loss and the 5% daily loss do not relax because the allocation got larger. Equity Guard has to be reset to 5% of the allocation you are trading now, not the one you started with.
Hyper Growth is a different ladder. It is instant capital with a 3% daily loss and a 6% static maximum, and it pays when each 10% target milestone is reached. Bootcamp is not this ladder. Bootcamp uses a static 5% maximum per step and a mandatory stop-loss. Do not point a High Stakes scaling plan at a Bootcamp login.
Bi-weekly pay, the salary rung, and the $495 fee
High Stakes payouts are bi-weekly. The split is 80% to 100%, and the top scaling milestones add a monthly fixed salary. The $100,000 evaluation fee is $495. A trader who sizes as if the salary rung removes the 5% day will give the doubled book back. The fee is small next to a breach on the second rung.
Three profitable days of at least 0.5% of initial balance are still required on High Stakes. On $100,000 that day is $500. The doubling path does not replace those days with one large session. Phase 1 remains 8% and Phase 2 remains 5%, with three minimum trading days, before the funded scaling clock even starts.
Keeping 0.50% risk when the allocation doubles
High Stakes risk in this plan is 0.50% per trade. On $100,000 that is $500, the same dollars as one qualifying 0.5% day. After a double, 0.50% is a larger cash loss, so the dollar risk has to be recomputed or the 5% day is no longer the day you planned. Open a Venasri account and store a separate risk figure for each rung instead of leaving the first-rung lot in place.
News holding is allowed on High Stakes, but new orders in the 2 minute window around a red-folder release are prohibited. Weekend holding is permitted. A doubled NAS100 position held into Sunday is a larger dollar gap against the same 5% rule. The higher of balance or floating equity at 00:00 MT5 time, GMT+2 or GMT+3, is what sets the next daily floor.
The breach that ends a scale-up
Capital increases when the milestone is reached without breaching the daily floor. A naked Bootcamp ticket is irrelevant on High Stakes, but a High Stakes float that is still open at midnight can lift the next 5% floor and stop the milestone. The bot should be allowed to manage stops on a self-owned EA. Shared copy signals across unrelated users are prohibited.
Platforms are MT5 only. There is no second platform to hide a larger lot on. If you want the salary rung, the daily record has to show repeatable 0.5% days and an intact 10% static floor. The $4,000,000 figure is the top of the published path, not a balance you receive on day one.
