How the $5K Classic works
Two phases with lower profit targets and wider loss limits. The classic path to funding. There are 2 evaluation phases before the funded account.
- Phase 1: target $500 (≈ CRC 226,444) (10%), daily loss $200 (≈ CRC 90,578) (4%), max loss $400 (≈ CRC 181,155) (8%, trailing), at least 5 trading days, 30-day limit, best day at most 50% of the profit.
- Phase 2: target $250 (≈ CRC 113,222) (5%), daily loss $200 (≈ CRC 90,578) (4%), max loss $400 (≈ CRC 181,155) (8%, trailing), at least 5 trading days, 60-day limit, best day at most 50% of the profit.
- Funded account: daily loss $200 (≈ CRC 90,578) (4%), max loss $400 (≈ CRC 181,155) (8%, trailing).

How much you can earn from Costa Rica
On the funded account you keep 90% of the profit above the 3% buffer, paid in USDT to your wallet after the processing fee. Net examples on $5K:
- A 5% profit ($250) → you receive $86.85 (≈ CRC 39,333) net.
- An 8% profit ($400) → you receive $217.12 (≈ CRC 98,331) net.
- A 10% profit ($500) → you receive $303.97 (≈ CRC 137,664) net.
How much you need to make per day on the $5K Classic
The phase 1 target is $500 (≈ CRC 226,444). With at least 5 trading days and the consistency rule (best day ≤ 50% of the profit, so at least 2 profitable days), the fastest possible pace is $100 (≈ CRC 45,289) a day for 5 days.
Spread over 10 trading days it is $50 (≈ CRC 22,644) a day, 25% of your $200 (≈ CRC 90,578) daily loss limit. Going slower costs nothing within the 30-calendar-day limit: the smaller the daily goal, the less you need to risk per trade. Across the 2 phases the targets add up to $750 (≈ CRC 339,666).
Example for a trader in Costa Rica: risking 0.5% per trade ($25) for twice that in profit, each winner adds $50 (≈ CRC 22,644); you need 10 winning trades for the phase, plus one more for every two losers.
| Phase | Target | Fastest pace allowed | Over 10 trading days | Over the full period | Best day cap |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Phase 1 | $500 (10%) | $100 /day × 5 | $50 /day | $23.81 /day × 21 | $250 (50%) |
| Phase 2 | $250 (5%) | $50 /day × 5 | $25 /day | $5.96 /day × 42 | $125 (50%) |
