At Cyber Funded, we maintain a clear and strict policy against high-risk, “all or nothing” trading approaches. Our mission is to empower traders who demonstrate discipline, strategic thinking, and a strong commitment to long-term risk management. These are the individuals we aim to support with simulated funded accounts, potentially up to $400,000 in capital allocation.
Market conditions across different instruments can shift rapidly, and volatility levels may fluctuate significantly over time. For this reason, we do not impose any strict limits on position exposure or lot sizes. As stated on our website, we aim to work with disciplined traders who apply sound risk management principles, and we prefer not to interfere with your trading approach more than necessary.
In essence, you should handle any Cyber Funded account as if it were your own live account of equal size, maintaining a well-defined trading plan and focusing on long-term account sustainability. Although it is not possible for us to offer precise recommendations regarding exposure, position size, or specific limits for every market condition and instrument, it is worth keeping in mind that consistent trading results are typically achieved through diversification and controlled risk by managing multiple independent trades across various opportunities.
While risk levels can naturally vary among asset classes and instruments, a sound general approach is to maintain balanced exposure on each trade idea and ensure that individual positions are proportionate to the overall account size. These are not strict rules but general principles intended to promote responsible risk management. In our internal assessments, we take multiple factors into account before drawing any conclusions, for example, a slightly higher level of exposure may be acceptable for certain swing setups with limited overall risk.
Our Risk Management team continuously monitors account exposures and reaches out individually to traders who are taking excessive risks. We want to emphasize that we do not support impulsive or speculative trading behaviours that resemble gambling. Each trader is expected to operate with a clear and consistent strategy, not by placing oversized trades and relying on luck.
What Is Considered “All or Nothing” Trading?
We classify any trading strategy as gambling-style or high-risk if:
A single position utilizes more than 80% of the trader’s available margin. This level of exposure is considered excessive and reflects poor risk control: a practice that conflicts with the standards we uphold at Cyber Funded.
Consequences of Engaging in High-Risk Behavior:
Traders who engage in “all or nothing” practices may face:
- Profit adjustments or deductions
- Phase resets during the Challenge or Verification stages
- Account breaches, which may lead to disqualification from the platform
At Cyber Funded, we are committed to cultivating a community of traders who understand that consistent performance and capital preservation are the true foundations of success in the markets. By maintaining these standards, we create an environment where traders can thrive, grow, and build real careers based on skill, not chance.
