3-Step Evaluation Model for Elite Traders
The Triple Core Challenge represents one of Cyber Funded’s most comprehensive and rigorous evaluation models, crafted for traders who are ready to prove their consistency and precision over an extended, multi-phase process. This 3-Step Model is designed to progressively assess your skill, discipline, and risk management, ultimately qualifying you for a Simulated Funded Account upon successful completion.
This 3-Step Challenge is the most cost-effective evaluation offered by Cyber Funded, making it an ideal choice for traders who prefer a more measured and methodical approach to the market. By spreading the evaluation across three structured phases, it allows traders to operate with greater calm, control, and strategic pacing, focusing on sustainable performance rather than short-term pressure.
How It Works
The Triple Core Challenge unfolds across three distinct evaluation stages, each with its own set of trading objectives and risk parameters. Traders must meet the performance targets in each phase without breaching the rules to advance to the next stage.
This model not only filters out short-term luck but also rewards those who demonstrate the ability to perform consistently over time.
Step 1 – Evaluation Objectives
- Achieve a 6% profit target.
- Complete a minimum of 4 trading days.
- Respect all trading rules and risk limits. Successful completion will automatically grant access to Step 2.
Step 2 – Evaluation Objectives
- Achieve a 6% profit target.
- Complete a minimum of 4 trading days.
- Respect all trading rules and risk limits. Successful completion will automatically grant access to Step 3.
Step 3 – Evaluation Objectives
- Achieve a 6% profit target.
- Complete a minimum of 4 trading days.
- Respect all trading rules and risk limits. Successful completion will automatically grant access the Funded account.
NOTE: Active trading days are defined as days on which at least one position is opened and closed with a minimum trade size of 0.01 lots, resulting in either a profit or a loss.
Risk Management – Hard Breach Policy
3-Step triple Core Challenge operates under a static drawdown system, emphasizing responsible risk control. A hard breach occurs when a trader exceeds the permitted daily drawdown or maximum overall loss, and leads to the immediate closure of the account, applicable both during the evaluation and funded phases.
Daily Drawdown Limit – 4%
- What does it mean?
Your maximum daily loss is limited to 4% of your initial account balance.
This threshold is recalculated each day at AT MIDNIGHT (00.00 CEST), using the higher value between your current balance and equity to ensure a fair and transparent risk framework. - How is it calculated?
At every daily reset AT MIDNIGHT (00.00 CEST), Cyber Funded determines which is higher between your account balance or equity.
Then, 4% of your initial balance is subtracted from that value to establish your new daily drawdown limit for the following trading day.
Example 1 – Higher Equity:
If your balance is $105,000 and your equity is $107,000, your equity must not drop below $102,720 during the next trading day.
Example 2 – Higher Balance:
If your balance is $100,000 and your equity is $99,000, your equity cannot fall below $96,000 the following day.
Overall Loss Limit – 10%
The Maximum Loss Limit represents the total amount your equity or balance can fall before breaching the account rules.
Reaching this threshold results in a hard breach, and the account will be closed automatically to protect capital integrity.
The maximum overall loss is capped at 10% of your initial account balance.
Example: On a $100,000 account, the lowest allowable value for equity or balance is $90,000.
All trade results, including closed P&L, swap fees, and commissions, are considered in the drawdown calculations.
Trader Rewards & Profit Sharing
Cyber Funded offers a competitive 80% profit split as standard, with a BI-Weekly Payout for the Dual Protocol Standard Swing.
Example: If you generate $5,000 in profit, your reward would amount to $4,000.
Scaling Plan:
To scale up your payout percentage, you need to meet these criteria over any consecutive 4-month period:
- Minimum of 4 months of account activity is required
- 4 consecutive payouts received
- At least 10% total net simulated profit in the 4-months trading window
- Positive account balance at the time of scale-up
When you’re ready to request a scale-up:
- Close all open trades
- Finish your current trading cycle
- Contact our support via E-mail support@cyberfunded (with object SCALING UP) immediately after the cycle ends
- Don’t open new trades during the review
If eligible, you’ll receive a 25% balance increase and your profit share will increase to 90% for future payouts.
Reward Cycle & Withdrawal Flexibility
The first payout will be processed 28 days after the request has been submitted. Subsequently we will operate on a BI-weekly cycle, allowing traders to request their share of profits after 14 days or once they feel comfortable with it. Simply submit a request, and we will process your payout accordingly.

Holding over nights/weekends
During the Cyber Funded Challenge and Verification phases, you are free to hold positions overnight and even over the weekend. These stages are designed to give you full flexibility in managing your trades according to your strategy, without limitations tied to market session closures.
However, once you advance and become a Cyber Funded Trader with an active Simulated Funded Account, you are required to close all open positions before the weekend market close or before any scheduled market break longer than two hours. This applies across all asset classes except for cryptos and ensures alignment with institutional risk standards. The only account that allows you to hold overnight and over weekend is the Dual Protocol Swing.
