Which one for a systematic strategy

Flex for a strategy that can pass a 40% rule and wants none once funded; its contract counts do not grow with funding. Legacy and Rapid give two more minis on the funded account than in the challenge, which is unusual, but Rapid counts micros at 5× rather than 10× the mini cap, so a micro-based system gets half the size it expects. Bolt is the only program with a daily loss limit.
