Your first week after deposit
Day 1: confirm Wallet. Day 2: allocate to the platform. Days 3-5: smallest lot, skip your first major US release if new. Days 6-7: read costs, not vanity P&L. Process is the win - profits are never promised.
75%+ of retail investor accounts lose money trading CFDs. Capital at risk.

Day-by-day map
| Day | Job |
|---|---|
| 1 | Confirm deposit landed in Wallet. Screenshot the method and amount. |
| 2 | Allocate Wallet → trading account. Open the platform and verify balance. |
| 3 | One micro trade in a liquid WAT window. No revenge size. |
| 4-5 | Repeat the same rule. Skip the first heavy US data print if you are new. |
| 6-7 | Journal spread + commission. Decide if Standard or Raw+ still fits. |
Funding basics: minimum deposit. Open path: open account.
Money path that confuses new accounts
Fund → Wallet → trading account. Empty MT4/MT5/cTrader after a deposit almost always means no allocation inside Direct. Fix allocation before you change strategy.

FAQ
Wallet funded, platform $0?
Allocate inside Direct to the trading account.
Raw+ in week one?
Only after you measured all-in on demo.
How many trades in week one?
Fewer clean trades beat a revenge streak. Quality over count.
Should I withdraw week-one profits?
Follow Direct rules. Process first - do not treat early green as skill proof.
Ready when the process feels calm
If Wallet is funded but charts show zero, allocate first. Then trade micro size only.
