Challenge. Funded. Paid. Graduated.
Four stages, every rule printed on this page. All trading at Stampede happens on simulated accounts. The fee is real, the payouts are real, the balance never is. That’s the deal.
01The challenge
Pick a simulated account size from $5K to $200K and a plan: Classic, two checkpoints with the friendliest targets, or a one-step Sprint in two trims, full buffer or Turbo. You pay a one-time fee, from $39, for exactly the buffer you want. It’s a fee for an evaluation service, never a deposit, and there’s nothing to deposit: the balance is simulated from the first tick. Every plan trades the same markets: FX majors and minors, gold and metals, indices, oil, crypto.

The two loss rules, in plain English
Max daily loss
Each day starts a fresh limit, measured from the previous day close. Lose more than the daily percentage in a single day, including open positions, and the account fails. On a $100K Classic account, 5% means your equity must never drop more than $5,000 below where the day started.
Max total loss, static
One fixed floor for the life of the account, measured from your starting balance. It never moves up behind you. On a $100K Classic account, 10% means equity must stay above $90,000, period. Plenty of firms trail this number against you, so a winning week quietly tightens the noose. We don’t, on any plan, at any price.
That’s the complete list. No consistency rules, no minimum win days, no hidden clauses that show up after you pass. If a rule isn’t on this page, it isn’t a rule. Stay between the two walls and the horizon is yours.
02Funded, and paid like a broker
Pass and you get a funded account at the same size. Still simulated, still the same two loss rules, but now with no profit target and a real payout button. The split is 80/20 standard, or 90/10 with the one add-on, 20% extra at checkout. No payout caps, no consistency rules, no winning-day gates.

The rules are mechanical and published. There is no payout committee and no discretionary review: hit the button, get paid. Our team pays brokerage withdrawals in minutes for a living. That standard came with us.
03Graduation: real capital
Straight numbers: most funded traders are not consistently profitable, here or anywhere. The few who are earn the step no standalone prop firm can offer. The firm runs its own real capital on A-book behind their performance, funded through LHFX and STP’d to its liquidity providers, and pays them a share under a performance contract. Graduation criteria will be published, like every other rule, before challenges open.
