The second position is a separate contract behind the first. In the worked example it adds $268 a day on top of the first withdrawal.
What do funders look at first?
The first advance's balance and debit, statements since it funded, and whether its contract allows a second position. With a first withdrawal of $433 a day, room in deposits decides the size.
