Quick Overview: Three-Step Challenge
The Three-Step Challenge is Capital Mint’s most structured evaluation route, built around three separate phases. You must complete Phase 1 first, then Phases 2 and 3, hitting each phase’s profit target while staying within the same core loss limits. There is no time limit, so the focus is on maintaining discipline and avoiding rule breaches across multiple stages rather than rushing to a single outcome. After passing all three phases, you progress to a funded account and follow the funded payout rules.

Three-Step Rules and Objectives
The Three-Step Challenge is a three-phase evaluation designed to test consistency over multiple stages. You must complete Phase 1, then Phase 2, then Phase 3, meeting each phase’s profit target while respecting the daily and overall loss limits at all times. Once all three phases are passed without rule violations, you advance to a funded account under Capital Mint’s funded trading and payout policies.
Profit Targets
To advance through each phase:
- Phase 1: 8% profit target.
- Phase 2: 5% profit target.
- Phase 3: 5% profit target.
Minimum Active Trading Days
- Each evaluation phase requires at least 5 trading days.
- Funded stage: Before a payout can be approved, you must complete at least 3 active trading days on the funded account.
- If you purchase the No Minimum Trading Days add-on, the minimum trading day requirement is reduced to 0 days (evaluation and funded).
- There is no maximum number of trading days and no time limit to complete a phase.
Daily Loss Limit
Your daily drawdown limit is 5% of your account’s initial balance.
Each day at 5 PM EST, Capital Mint compares your starting day balance and equity (including floating profit/loss). The higher of those two values is used as the reference point for that day’s limit, while the 5% amount is always calculated from the initial balance.
This approach protects the account from sharp intraday losses while still allowing profits to build without changing the underlying risk cap.
Example
- Initial Balance: $100,000 → Daily Drawdown amount = $5,000
- If at 5 PM EST your starting-day balance is $100,000 and your starting-day equity is $102,000:
- Reference value used = $102,000
- Minimum equity allowed that day = $102,000 − $5,000 = $97,000
If Equity touches or drops below the minimum equity level at any time before the next day reset, the account is in breach and trading access is removed for that account.
Overall Loss Limit
- The maximum overall drawdown is 10% of your starting balance.
- This limit is not daily and does not reset. Once set, it stays fixed to the starting balance for the duration of the account.
Profit Cap (Applies to Funded Accounts only)
To limit extreme outliers and keep results representative, Capital Mint applies a profit ceiling:
- Single trade profit may not exceed $10,000, or
- Total profit across multiple trades in the same day may not exceed $10,000.
- Applies to realised and unrealised/floating profits.
Once $10,000 profit has been achieved in any given day, your account will be disabled/paused till the start of the next trading day.
Position Size Controls (Funded Accounts Only)
Funded accounts must comply with the Max Exposure rule:
- The combined value of all open trading positions must not exceed 2x the account’s initial balance.
- This rule applies at all times while positions are open.
- Breaching the Max Exposure limit results in an account breach.
Payout Basics (Funded Stage)
- Payouts are available once you achieve at least $100 profit.
- Minimum payout request: $100.
- Profit Split: 80% standard, or 90% with the Higher Profit Share add-on.
- Payouts are processed within 1 business day.
Consistency Rule
- Your most profitable trading day must not account for more than 40% of your total profit.
- If you exceed this threshold, you must continue trading until your profits are more evenly distributed across days.
Weekend Trading
Weekend trading means you may open, close and hold positions over the weekend.
- Challenge accounts: Weekend trading is allowed.
- Funded accounts: Weekend trading is allowed, provided all open positions remain compliant with Capital Mint’s risk rules.
News Trading
High-impact news can create sharp volatility and fast price moves.
- Challenge accounts: News trading is allowed only with the News Trading add-on.
- Funded accounts: News trading is allowed only with the News Trading add-on.

How the Consistency Rule Works
The Consistency Rule is a control used during the evaluation phase. Its purpose is to discourage “one big day” outcomes and encourage results that come from repeatable trading rather than a single outsized win.
Key Concepts
Concept | Details |
Purpose | Encourages steadier performance across multiple trading days. |
When It Applies | Evaluation phase only (not the funded stage). Applies even if the account is in drawdown. |
How We Calculate It
Formula:
Consistency % = (Highest day profit ÷ Total profit) × 100
Example:
- Total profit: $1,000
- Highest day profit: $250
- Calculation: (250 ÷ 1000) × 100 = 25%
Because 25% is below the 40% threshold, the trader remains within the rule.
What Happens If You Go Over 40%
If your highest trading day represents more than 40% of your total profit:
- The account does not fail because of this rule alone.
- You must continue trading until the percentage falls below 40% before the evaluation phase can be marked as passed.
How Drawdown Affects the Calculation
The Consistency Rule still applies while the account is in drawdown.
- Profit is measured relative to the account’s initial equity, not the current balance.
- Recovering previous losses does not count as new profit.
Summary
Rule | Value / Outcome |
Consistency Threshold | 40% |
Failure If Exceeded? | No |
Action Required | Continue trading until profits are rebalanced |
This rule is intended to keep evaluation performance more representative of a consistent approach.
Payouts: Timing, Process, and What Resets the Clock
First payout
- Eligibility: You can request your first payout 14 days after placing your first trade on the funded account (or sooner with the Payout on Demand add-on).
- Purpose: This initial waiting period helps confirm trading activity and basic rule compliance.
- Timeline: Once requested, payouts are processed within 1 business day.
Subsequent payouts
- Eligibility: After a payout is completed, the next payout request is available 7 days after your first trade following the last payout.
- Purpose: This keeps payouts tied to ongoing trading activity, not inactivity.
- Timeline: Payouts are processed within 1 business day of the request.
Key notes
- Timer reset: The 7-day timer restarts after your first trade following a payout.
- Open trades: You must have no open trades at the time you submit a payout request.
- Compliance: All trading and risk rules must be followed before submitting a request.
Summary
Aspect | First Payout | Subsequent Payouts |
Eligibility | 7 days after first funded trade (or sooner with Payout on Demand add-on) | 7 days after first trade post-payout (or sooner with Payout on Demand add-on) |
Profit Split | 80% (or 90% with add-on) | 80% (or 90% with add-on) |
Processing Time | Within 1 business day of request | Within 1 business day of request |
This payout schedule is designed to keep withdrawals predictable while ensuring accounts remain active and compliant.
Funding Limits Across Accounts
Capital Mint sets a maximum funded allocation per trader to keep funding limits clear and to maintain a consistent risk framework across all accounts.
The maximum total funded balance is $100,000 per trader. This cap includes the combined starting balances of all active funded accounts held under the same trader profile.
How It Works
You may hold more than one funded account, but the combined funded balance across all active funded accounts must not exceed $100,000.
- Multiple funded accounts are allowed.
- The combined funded balance must remain at or below $100,000.
- Merging accounts is not permitted. Each funded account is managed independently.
- If you reach the $100,000 cap, additional funded accounts will not be issued unless your total funded balance falls below the cap.
Why Accounts Cannot Be Merged
Funded accounts are structured as separate accounts so performance and risk controls remain clean and trackable.
This approach supports:
- Consistent risk limits on each account
- Clear performance tracking
- Operational simplicity when monitoring accounts and payouts
What Happens at the $100,000 Cap
Once your total funded balance reaches $100,000:
- You cannot receive additional funded accounts.
- You must reduce your total funded balance below $100,000 before you can receive more funded accounts.
