Broad US equities. One deliberate position.

The instrument

US500 is an index CFD reference for a broad basket of large US companies. Macroeconomic releases, earnings, and interest-rate expectations can move the reference.

Trading specification

Maximum leverage 1:8. Planned entry-to-stop risk 1.00% of initial balance per order. Minimum quantity step 0.01 underlying units. Bid/ask-aware USD simulation. US500 is grouped with NAS100 for the sandbox concentration control. A lower quoted price does not imply lower notional risk.

Execution and data

Charts use mid prices for context; buys execute at ask and sells at bid under the disclosed slippage model. Synthetic prices are explicitly labelled. A verified provider mapping, commercial data licence, trading hours, and contract specification are required for live data.

A disciplined order

A protective stop is required. Daily equity and intraday trailing controls apply to floating results. The candidate 5-second discretionary hold treats genuine protective stops separately.
