Global Gold (XAUUSD) scalpers and MetaTrader 5 (MT5) Expert Advisor (EA) operators frequently lose $500–$1,000 in non-refundable prop-firm evaluation fees before reaching their first payout. Why? Because a nominal "$100,000 prop account" with a strict 5% daily floating drawdown limit ($5,000) and 10% maximum trailing drawdown ($10,000) is mathematically only a $5,000–$10,000 risk allowance with zero tolerance for floating intrabar volatility.
| Execution Metric | Typical $100k Prop Firm (FTMO / FundedNext) | Exness Pro / Raw Spread (`hrakh7d3jt`) |
|---|---|---|
| Upfront Non-Refundable Fee | ~$540 per attempt (forfeited on breach) | $0 (100% of deposit is usable equity) |
| True Intraday Risk Buffer | 5% Daily Floating Equity Drop ($5,000) | 100% of Sub-Account Equity (0% Stop-Out Level) |
| Margin Requirement on XAUUSD | 1:30 to 1:100 (~$2,700 margin / lot) | Unlimited Leverage ($0 margin) or 1:2000 (~$135/lot) |
| XAUUSD Effective Spread + Swap | 1.2–1.8 pips + Commission + Overnight Swap | ~1.12p (Pro) / ~0.98p (Raw) + Extended Swap-Free |
| News Trading & Profit Withdrawals | Restricted around CPI/FOMC; 14-day payout cycle | No restrictions; 24/7 instant withdrawals |
