Phase 1 vs Phase 2: what changes in the MOJA challenge
Both phases use the same drawdown framework but different profit targets. Treat them as two exams with the same risk rules — not two different strategies.
Side-by-side comparison
Phase 1 — prove edge
+8% profit target. 5% daily / 10% max drawdown. Minimum 7 trading days with at least one trade per day. Goal: show you can grow without breaking limits.
Phase 2 — prove consistency
+5% profit target (lower, but after Phase 1 fatigue). Same 5% / 10% drawdown. Another 7 minimum days. Goal: confirm discipline is repeatable, not luck.
What stays the same in both phases
How to transition Phase 1 → Phase 2
Do not change strategy overnight
What passed Phase 1 should be refined, not replaced. Phase 2 fails often come from overconfidence after Phase 1.
Reduce size slightly
A +5% target needs less aggression than +8%. Protect the 7-day minimum by trading smaller, high-quality setups.
Track UTC drawdown daily
Same rules, but mental fatigue increases. Stop at 70% of daily limit even in Phase 2.
