Slippage was minimal\u2014about 0.2 pips on EUR\/USD during normal conditions.

You can take weeks or months to pass.<\/p>\n<p>\u2705 <strong>Best for swing traders:<\/strong> <strong>Can you hold trades over the weekend with The5ers?<\/strong> Yes! Unlike many competitors, The5ers allows weekend positions and overnight holds. No forced Friday exits.<\/p>\n<p>\u2705 <strong>Best for automated traders:<\/strong> Custom EAs are allowed. The <strong>The5ers EA trading rules and automated strategy allowance<\/strong> permit your own Expert Advisors as long as they&#8217;re not commercial systems or copy trading.<\/p>\n<p>\u274c <strong>Not ideal for scalpers:<\/strong> The 5% daily drawdown rule makes high-frequency scalping risky. One bad morning can wipe out your account.<\/p>\n<p>\u274c <strong>Not for US traders (yet):<\/strong> MetaQuotes platforms were restricted for US residents, but The5ers now offers cTrader access to American traders as of September 2025.<\/p>\n<p><strong>NOTE:<\/strong> The5ers now accepts U.S. clients as of September 2025. The company expanded its funding programs to the United States, using the cTrader platform to allow American traders to access its services.<\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align: center; margin: 40px 0;\">\n<p style=\"font-size: 1.3em; font-weight: 600; color: #2d3748; margin-bottom: 20px;\">Choose The Program For Your Skill Level And Trading Style<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/incomeur.com\/blog\/the5ers\" style=\"display: inline-block; background: linear-gradient(135deg, #667eea 0%, #764ba2 100%); color: white; padding: 18px 50px; text-decoration: none; border-radius: 8px; font-weight: 700; font-size: 1.15em; box-shadow: 0 4px 8px rgba(0,0,0,0.2);\" target=\"_blank\">Sign Up For A 5ers Account \u2192<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-top: 15px; color: #718096; font-size: 0.95em;\">Start Trading Today  \u2022  MT5 and cTrader  \u2022  Free Educational Resources <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"%F0%9F%8E%A8_Design_Platform_Quality\"><\/span>\ud83c\udfa8 Design &#038; Platform Quality<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"User_Interface_Dashboard\"><\/span>User Interface &#038; Dashboard<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The5ers Hub is where you manage everything.

I&#8217;ll use my $100,000 High Stakes challenge as an example.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Day 1:<\/strong> I paid $495 and received MT5 login credentials within 2 hours. The account showed $100,000 balance, ready to trade.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Phase 1 Goal:<\/strong> Make 8% profit ($8,000) with at least 3 profitable days. A profitable day means closing with 0.5% gain or more. I had unlimited time\u2014no 30-day limit like FTMO.<\/p>\n<p><strong>My Phase 1 Stats:<\/strong> Took me 23 days. Made $9,200 profit with 11 profitable days and 7 losing days. Max drawdown was 4.2% (stayed well under the 10% limit).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Phase 2 Goal:<\/strong> Make 5% profit ($5,000) with 3 more profitable days.<\/p>\n<p><strong>My Phase 2 Stats:<\/strong> Finished in 16 days. Made $5,800 profit with 9 profitable days. Max drawdown was 2.8%.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Funded Account:<\/strong> After passing Phase 2, I got my funded account in 48 hours. The fee refund? It gets added to your funded account equity. So my $100,000 funded account actually started at $100,495.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The5ers_Maximum_Daily_Drawdown_Explained_Clearly\"><\/span>The5ers Maximum Daily Drawdown Explained Clearly<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>This is where most traders mess up. <strong>The5ers maximum daily drawdown explained clearly:<\/strong> You have TWO drawdown limits.<\/p>\n<p><strong>1. Daily Drawdown (5%):<\/strong> Calculated at 00:00 UTC+3 each day. Your equity at midnight becomes the baseline. You can&#8217;t lose more than 5% from that point until the next midnight.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Real Example:<\/strong> Your equity is $100,000 at midnight. Your daily drawdown limit is $95,000. If you drop to $95,100 during the day, stop trading. One more losing trade could breach the rule and fail your account.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2. Maximum Total Drawdown (10%):<\/strong> This never changes. It&#8217;s always 10% below your starting balance. For a $100,000 account, if your equity ever touches $90,000, you&#8217;re done. Game over.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pro tip I learned the hard way:<\/strong> Never trade with more than 2% risk per trade. With 5% daily limit, you can only afford 2-3 losing trades max before you&#8217;re in danger.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The5ers_Profit_Split_Percentage_Increase_Rules\"><\/span>The5ers Profit Split Percentage Increase Rules<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Here&#8217;s what gets me excited about The5ers. <strong>The5ers profit split scaling plan explained for $100K account:<\/strong><\/p>\n<table  class=\" table table-hover\" style=\"width:100%; border-collapse:collapse; margin:20px 0;\">\n<tr style=\"background-color:#f0f0f0;\">\n<th style=\"border:1px solid #ddd; padding:12px; text-align:left;\">Account Balance<\/th>\n<th style=\"border:1px solid #ddd; padding:12px; text-align:left;\">Your Profit Split<\/th>\n<th style=\"border:1px solid #ddd; padding:12px; text-align:left;\">Firm&#8217;s Split<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #ddd; padding:12px;\">$100,000 &#8211; $250,000<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #ddd; padding:12px;\">80%<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #ddd; padding:12px;\">20%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"background-color:#f9f9f9;\">\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #ddd; padding:12px;\">$250,000 &#8211; $2,000,000<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #ddd; padding:12px;\">90%<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #ddd; padding:12px;\">10%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #ddd; padding:12px;\">$2,000,000+<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #ddd; padding:12px;\">100%<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #ddd; padding:12px;\">0%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n<p>You read that right.

Unlimited Time to Pass Challenges<\/strong><br \/>\nNo 30-day countdown clock. I took 39 days to pass Phase 1 because I was traveling. No stress, no pressure. This alone makes The5ers the <strong>best prop firm for beginners with unlimited time challenge<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2. Weekend &#038; Overnight Trading Allowed<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Can you hold trades over the weekend with The5ers?<\/strong> Yes. I regularly hold GBP\/JPY swing trades from Thursday through Monday. Swap fees apply but that&#8217;s normal. The flexibility is priceless for swing traders.<\/p>\n<p><strong>3. Industry-Leading Scaling Plan<\/strong><br \/>\nFrom $100K to $4M is achievable. My friend scaled to $800K in 14 months. <strong>The5ers scaling plan explained for $100K account<\/strong>: Every 10% profit adds new capital. Compound that growth over a year and you&#8217;re looking at life-changing money.<\/p>\n<p><strong>4. Fast, Reliable Payouts<\/strong><br \/>\nAverage 52 hours from request to crypto wallet. That&#8217;s phenomenal. <strong>The5ers withdrawal options and time to receive payment<\/strong> beat 90% of competitors.<\/p>\n<p><strong>5. Transparent Rules &#8211; No Hidden Traps<\/strong><br \/>\nEvery rule is documented. No surprise violations. No &#8220;our system detected suspicious activity&#8221; BS. If you follow the rules, you get paid. Simple.<\/p>\n<p><strong>6. Custom EA Trading Allowed<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>The5ers EA trading rules and automated strategy allowance<\/strong> permit your own Expert Advisors. I ran a custom RSI EA for 3 months. No issues. Just don&#8217;t use commercial systems or copy trading.<\/p>\n<p><strong>7. Excellent Educational Resources<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>The5ers traders hub and educational resources review<\/strong>: The free courses are genuinely good. The weekly webinars feature real traders showing real setups. I learned a supply\/demand strategy that improved my win rate by 12%.<\/p>\n<p><strong>8. Responsive Customer Support<\/strong><br \/>\n24\/7 availability. 30-90 minute response times. They actually solve problems instead of sending canned responses.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Areas_for_Improvement_%F0%9F%98%90\"><\/span>Areas for Improvement \ud83d\ude10<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>1. 5% Daily Drawdown is Tight<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>The5ers maximum daily drawdown explained clearly<\/strong>: 5% per day sounds reasonable until you have 2-3 losing trades in the morning. Then you&#8217;re sidelined for the rest of the day. I wish it was 6-7% like some competitors.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2. First Payout Takes 14 Days<\/strong><br \/>\nAfter getting funded, you wait 14 days before requesting withdrawal. I get it\u2014they want to see consistent trading. But 7 days would be better.<\/p>\n<p><strong>3. Bootcamp Leverage is Only 1:10<\/strong><br \/>\nFor a $100K Bootcamp account, 1:10 leverage means $1M buying power. That&#8217;s tight for position sizing. High Stakes offers 1:100 which is much better.<\/p>\n<p><strong>4. No Trailing Drawdown Option<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>The5ers maximum daily drawdown<\/strong> is absolute (measured from starting balance). A trailing drawdown that moves up with your profits would be trader-friendly.<\/p>\n<p><strong>5. Profit Targets Are Aggressive<\/strong><br \/>\n8% in Phase 1 of High Stakes is doable but stressful. You need to average 0.5% per day for 16 trading days. One bad week and you&#8217;re scrambling.<\/p>\n<p><strong>6. Limited Assets Compared to Competitors<\/strong><br \/>\nThe5ers offers forex, metals, indices, and some crypto. But no stocks, commodities, or bonds. If you trade oil or gold futures, you&#8217;re out of luck.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"%F0%9F%8E%AF_Purchase_Recommendations_Who_Should_and_Shouldnt_Join\"><\/span>\ud83c\udfaf Purchase Recommendations: Who Should (and Shouldn&#8217;t) Join<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Best_For_%E2%AD%90%E2%AD%90%E2%AD%90%E2%AD%90%E2%AD%90\"><\/span>Best For: \u2b50\u2b50\u2b50\u2b50\u2b50<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>1. Swing Traders Who Hold Overnight<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Can you hold trades over the weekend with The5ers?<\/strong> Yes. If your strategy involves 3-5 day holds, The5ers is perfect. No forced exits on Friday.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2. Part-Time Traders Who Need Flexibility<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Best prop firm for beginners with unlimited time challenge<\/strong>: The5ers. No time limits means you can pass evaluations around your 9-5 job. Trade 1 hour per day and still succeed.<\/p>\n<p><strong>3. Consistent Traders Seeking Long-Term Scaling<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Prop firm with highest profit split for long-term traders<\/strong>: If you plan to scale to $500K+, the 100% profit split at $2M makes The5ers unbeatable.<\/p>\n<p><strong>4. Traders Who Use Custom EAs<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>The5ers EA trading rules and automated strategy allowance<\/strong> welcome automation. Perfect for algorithmic traders with proprietary systems.<\/p>\n<p><strong>5. Beginners on a Budget<\/strong><br \/>\nThe Bootcamp $5K account costs only $39. <strong>The5ers $20,000 funded account challenge cost<\/strong> starts at $155 for High Stakes. That&#8217;s cheaper than most gym memberships.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Skip_If_%E2%9D%8C\"><\/span>Skip If: \u274c<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>1. You&#8217;re a High-Frequency Scalper<\/strong><br \/>\nThe 5% daily drawdown is too restrictive. One bad scalping session (5-10 quick losses) will blow your account. Look at firms with 8-10% daily limits.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2. You Trade News Events Aggressively<\/strong><br \/>\nThe 2-minute rule before\/after high-impact news bans trading. <strong>The5ers minimum profitable trading days rule<\/strong> is fair, but the news restriction hurts news traders. Any profits during the banned window get removed.<\/p>\n<p><strong>3. You Need Same-Day Payouts<\/strong><br \/>\nThe5ers takes 2-3 days to process withdrawals. If you need instant access to profits, look elsewhere. Some firms offer 24-hour payouts.<\/p>\n<p><strong>4. You Want to Trade Stocks or Commodities<\/strong><br \/>\nThe5ers is forex-focused. They offer indices and metals but no individual stocks, oil futures, or agricultural commodities.<\/p>\n<p><strong>5. You Can&#8217;t Handle Strict Rules<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>The5ers maximum daily drawdown<\/strong>, minimum profitable days, news restrictions\u2014these rules are non-negotiable. Break them and you fail instantly.

The 1% Daily Rule<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Target 1% profit per day. For a $100K account, that&#8217;s $1,000 daily. If you achieve this 8 days, you&#8217;ll hit the 8% Phase 1 target. Consistency beats home runs.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Trade_Only_Your_Best_Setups\"><\/span>2. Trade Only Your Best Setups<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>During evaluation, skip mediocre trades. I only trade when I see Grade-A setups (3+ confluence factors). This reduced my trade frequency from 10\/week to 3\/week but increased my win rate from 58% to 68%.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_Use_Alerts_Not_Screen_Time\"><\/span>3. Use Alerts, Not Screen Time<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Set price alerts in MT5 instead of staring at charts. This prevents impulsive trades from boredom. I use TradingView alerts synced to my phone.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_Stop_Trading_After_3_Profit_Days\"><\/span>4. Stop Trading After 3% Profit Days<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>If you make 3% in one day, stop trading. Don&#8217;t give it back. <strong>The5ers minimum profitable trading days rule<\/strong> only requires 0.5% for a day to count, so 3% is overkill. Lock profits and come back tomorrow.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5_Avoid_Mondays_and_Fridays\"><\/span>5. Avoid Mondays and Fridays<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>I found the best trading days are Tuesday-Thursday. Mondays have weekend gaps and positioning flows. Fridays have profit-taking and early closures. Focus on midweek.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"6_Use_Mental_Stop_Losses\"><\/span>6. Use Mental Stop Losses<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The5ers doesn&#8217;t require hard stops. I use mental stops to avoid broker stop-hunting. When price hits my exit level, I close manually. This improved my results by 8% over 6 months.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"7_Journal_Every_Trade\"><\/span>7. Journal Every Trade<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>I use a simple spreadsheet tracking entry\/exit, reason, profit\/loss, and emotions. Reviewing this weekly helped me identify patterns. Turns out I lose money on Fridays (emotional fatigue) so I stopped Friday trading entirely.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"8_Practice_on_Demo_First\"><\/span>8. Practice on Demo First<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Before buying a challenge, practice your strategy on a demo account with the same rules (10% max drawdown, 5% daily limit). If you can&#8217;t pass demo consistently, you&#8217;ll fail evaluation too.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"%E2%9D%93_Frequently_Asked_Questions_2025\"><\/span>\u2753 Frequently Asked Questions (2025)<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<div style=\"background: linear-gradient(135deg, #f5f7fa 0%, #c3cfe2 100%); padding: 30px 20px; border-radius: 12px; margin: 20px 0;\">\n<h3 style=\"margin-top: 0; color: #333;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"%F0%9F%A4%94_Can_I_use_Expert_Advisors_EAs_on_The5ers\"><\/span>\ud83e\udd14 Can I use Expert Advisors (EAs) on The5ers?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"font-size: 1.05em;\">Yes. <strong>The5ers EA trading rules and automated strategy allowance<\/strong> permit custom EAs.

If you start with $100K and make $5K profit, your balance is $105K, but you still need 8% of $100K ($8K total) to pass Phase 1.
