Notes, changes, open questions
Loss floor
Worked example. Static 10% of the initial USD 100,000 is $10,000. The initial floor is $90,000.
Daily reset
Daily loss is published as 5% / $5,000. The exact baseline and reset clock are n/a in this check.
A separate rule limits maximum risk to 3% at any time. That is not the daily-loss percentage.
News
Challenge: news trading is allowed.
Funded account: a trade opened or closed within 5 minutes before or after listed high-impact news has only 40% of its profit credited. Losses count at 100%.
That is a profit adjustment, not a published execution ban. It can still take a winning news trade and leave most of it uncredited while the full loss remains.
Rules
- Programme
- Stellar 2-Step, standard payout option, USD 100,000. Optional payout models are not this row.
- Targets
- 8%, then 5%. Five minimum trading days in each phase. No time limit.
- Maximum loss
- Static 10% / $10,000 from the initial balance.
- Daily loss
- 5% / $5,000. Reset mechanics: n/a.
- Other risk cap
- Maximum risk 3% at any time.
- Consistency
- n/a. The standard row says N/A. That is not recorded here as None (verified).
- Default payout
- First payout after 21 days, then every 14 days, 80% share.
Watch-outs
- A funded news trade can look profitable and then be credited at 40%, while a losing one counts in full. The challenge does not apply that haircut.
- The 3% maximum-risk rule can fail an account that is still inside the 5% daily loss.
- Marketing that says up to 95% is an option or a scaling path. This row is the default 80% path. The 3-day, on-demand, and 95% add-on texts were not opened.
Changes
Check note No dated Stellar 2-Step change verified. Recent change: n/a. A 10-business-day update that may belong to a different model in a multi-model article was not applied to Stellar 2-Step.
Still open
- Daily baseline and reset clock.
- Whether the standard row's own 'N/A' consistency label is an explicit absence. It is left as n/a.
- Optional payout models, including a described 3-day 60% path, an on-demand 90% path, and a 95% add-on. Not published here until the exact reward article is read.
