Which one for a systematic strategy
2-Step Classic for a defined-stop system: a $10,000 floor on a 100K that never rises means every dollar of profit is real cushion, and the 5% daily limit is the widest of the three. 1-Step for a strategy that reaches +6% quickly and rarely gives back open profit, since the floor trails until it locks. Both carry no consistency rule anywhere, which is the reason to be here; the non-refundable fee is the cost.
