The5ers High Stakes (New): can an 80% split on a 14-day cycle survive the static floor?
On The5ers High Stakes (New) the trader keeps an 80% profit split. The first payout is available after 14 days, then every 14 days. No consistency rule is recorded. Whether the account is still open when that fortnight arrives is gated by a static 10% maximum loss from initial balance and a 5% daily loss that fails the account — run the published rule set at run your own book against The5ers — free.
Numbers first: 80% split · first after 14 days · every 14 · static 10% · 5% daily fail · no consistency rule. Answer first: High Stakes (New) is a two-step evaluation. Once funded you keep 80% — but not for 14 days, and not again for another 14 days. The floor underneath that calendar is static 10% of initial; the daily 5% is a fail, not a pause.
The payout terms
| Field | Value |
|---|---|
| Product | High Stakes (New) |
| Profit split | 80% to the trader |
| First withdrawal opens after | 14 days |
| Payout cycle after that | every 14 days |
| Fee refunded at first payout | Yes — dollar amount not recorded |
| Initial fee / reset prices | Not recorded |
| Consistency rule | None recorded on High Stakes (New) |
| Evaluation steps | 2 (Step 1: 10% · Step 2: 5%) |
| Minimum profitable days per step | 3 (closed profit ≥ 0.5% of initial) |
| Time limit to pass | Not recorded — unlimited |
The split is the number people quote. The calendar is the number that governs cash. Fourteen days must elapse before the first withdrawal is available; fourteen more must elapse before the next. The corpus records both as calendar fields — first-payout day 14, payout cycle 14 days — identical on the 50k and the 100k. No dollar minimum-payout is stated in the documentation we verified, so none is quoted here. The initial fee is one-time and refunded at first payout; the fee and the refund amount are both not recorded.
The unique gate: a 14-day first window and a 14-day cycle
High Stakes (New) pays on a fortnight, twice: once after you are funded, then after you have been paid. Every later cycle is the same length. You can be $4,000 in simulated profit on day two and still have twelve days of daily-loss exposure before 80% of it is yours to request. The split does not vest early. Being ahead of the static floor does not shorten the cycle.
Worked example — the 14-and-14 calendar on a 50k High Stakes (New) account
- Step 1 ($5,000 / 10%) and Step 2 ($2,500 / 5%) are cleared. The funded 50k is live on day 0.
- By day 3 you are $4,000 in profit — $3,200 at 80%. You cannot request it. The 5% daily fail is live every session of the lock.
- On day 14 the first window opens: 80% of whatever profit remains, plus the fee refund (dollar amount not recorded). The next window is day 28, not sooner.
Two equal fortnights. Day 14 and day 28 are the openings the verified rule set records. Everything between them is exposure, not cash.
The numbers, by account size
The corpus carries two High Stakes (New) sizes: 50k and 100k. Percentages are shared — Step 1 10%, Step 2 5%, daily 5% of that day's start, static max loss 10% of initial. Dollars scale. No third size is recorded.
| Account | Step 1 target (10%) | Step 2 target (5%) | Daily loss (5%, fail) | Static max loss (10%) | Profitable-day floor (0.5%) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 50k | $5,000 | $2,500 | $2,500 | $5,000 · floor $45,000 | $250 closed |
| 100k | $10,000 | $5,000 | $5,000 | $10,000 · floor $90,000 | $500 closed |
Daily loss includes unrealised profit and loss. On breach the account fails — it is not flattened and paused. Currency is USD. A profitable trading day is closed profit of at least 0.5% of initial; three such days are required in each step. Evaluation duration is not recorded as a cap.
New versus Classic is a live fork of the same High Stakes name. High Stakes (New) — the current default this page models — uses a 10% Step-1 target. Classic uses 8%. Step 2 is 5% on both. We take the harder 10% because it is the default sold today. The 14-and-14 calendar and 80% split are New records.
What you sit on during the 14 days: a static floor, and a daily fail
Two loss limits run for the whole life of the account. They are why the 14-day wait is not a holiday. The maximum loss is static from initial balance: $45,000 on 50k the day you start, and $45,000 the day you are $4,000 in profit. It does not trail — profit widens the room above a line that never moves. The corpus records the test as equity, including open trades, intraday; two independent rechecks found no first-party sentence for live equity versus daily close, so intraday equity is asserted, not sourced.
The daily loss is 5% of that day's starting balance or equity, includes unrealised profit and loss, and fails the account on breach — not a session lockout. $2,500 on 50k, $5,000 on 100k. A session that opens at $54,000 still fails if it loses $2,500, even $9,000 above the static floor. Day 14 does not suspend this rule.
Worked example — 50k High Stakes (New), static floor plus a daily fail inside the first fortnight
- Funded at $50,000. Static floor $45,000. Daily fail $2,500 from that day's start.
- You bank $4,000. Equity $54,000. Floor still $45,000 — room has widened to $9,000. First-payout window still closed.
- A session that starts at $54,000 and loses $2,500 ends the account at $51,500: $1,500 above start, $6,500 above the static floor, and still before day 14. Survive that session and day 14 pays 80% of $4,000 = $3,200, plus a fee refund whose dollar amount is not recorded.
Same 50k funded account. The wine line is the static $45,000 floor — it never steps up. Equity can sit $9,000 above it and still die on a $2,500 daily print. The 14-day window does not freeze the daily fail.
The daily 5% itself — day-start basis, open trades included, reset on The5ers' MT5 server clock — is on The5ers High Stakes daily loss limit. The reset hour is seasonally ambiguous (22:00 UTC in winter; 21:00 UTC in summer) and is not collapsed to one civil hour below.
Before any payout exists: two steps, three profitable days each
Nothing here is withdrawable until both steps pass. Step 1 is 10% ($5,000 / $10,000). Step 2 is 5% ($2,500 / $5,000). Each step also needs three profitable days: closed profit of at least 0.5% of initial — $250 on 50k, $500 on 100k. A +$200 close on the 50k does not count. The maximum-evaluation-days field is not set: the evaluation runs until a fail ends it, then the 14-day funded wait begins.
What the documentation does not settle
Daily reset hour. The program page states the 5% daily loss and prints no reset hour. The FAQ states 00:00 UTC+3. A separate max-loss article defines High Stakes MT5 server time as GMT+2 in winter and GMT+3 in summer. Winter 00:00 local is 22:00 UTC (the value we hold). Summer 00:00 local is 21:00 UTC. We do not collapse those to one hour.
Live equity versus daily close on the 10% floor. The corpus asserts intraday equity. Two independent 2026-07-22 rechecks both failed to find a first-party sentence for the test cadence. The field is asserted, not sourced. Treat an intraday print through $45,000 / $90,000 as the conservative case.
Fee and refund dollars. Pricing is one-time; the fee is refunded at first payout. Fee, refund and reset prices are not recorded in our corpus for this program — confirm directly with The5ers before you rely on them.

No. High Stakes (New) phases record an empty consistency list. The 40% figure in The5ers material belongs to The5ers Futures, not this program.
