50K 2-Step Standard
$50,000 account
Phase 1
- Profit target
- $5,000
- Max loss
- $5,000Static drawdown — Fixed line — set at start, it never moves, up or down.
- Daily loss limit
- $2,500
- Min trading days
- None
- Min winning days
- 3 days of $250+A day counts toward a payout only when it clears $250 in profit.
- Consistency rule
- None
- This is the 2-Step STANDARD variant only. Goat's GOAT and PRO variants use different targets/drawdown — don't apply these numbers to them.
- Max loss is STATIC — an Absolute Floor at 90% of your starting capital (initial − 10%), balance or equity may never touch it.
- Daily loss (5%) is taken from the HIGHER of your Account Balance or Account Equity checked at 5:00 PM EST, minus 5%; the trading day runs 5:00 PM EST → 4:59 PM EST. Whether OPEN/floating P&L triggers the daily breach is NOT stated by the firm — not asserted here.
- Daily-breach consequence is encoded as a hard fail at LOW confidence: the Standard page tags “Hard Breach” but carries no consequence sentence (the account-closure wording lives on the separate 2-Step GOAT page).
