Simulated prop firm
Static Drawdown Prop Firm
Your max loss line is fixed when you start and never moves up. Static drawdown on Classic, Sprint and Sprint Turbo. From $39.
Static Drawdown on Every Challenge
Every challenge Stampede sells uses static drawdown. Your max loss line is set in dollars on the day you start, and it never moves, however much the account grows. On a $100,000 Classic account the line sits at $90,000 from your first trade to your last.
The funded account you get when you pass uses the same static line. There is no trailing drawdown on Classic, Sprint or Sprint Turbo.
Where the Line Sits on Each Plan
| Plan | Max loss (static) | Max loss line on a $100,000 account | Daily loss limit |
|---|---|---|---|
| Classic | 10% | $90,000 | 5% |
| Sprint | 6% | $94,000 | 4% |
| Sprint Turbo | 3% | $97,000 | 3% |
Sprint and Sprint Turbo also come in a $200,000 size, and every plan starts at $5,000. The line is always the same percentage of your starting balance. See pricing for every size and fee.
Static vs Trailing Drawdown
| Static drawdown (Stampede) | Trailing drawdown | |
|---|---|---|
| Where the line starts | A fixed percentage below your starting balance | A fixed percentage below your starting balance |
| What happens when you make money | Nothing. The line stays where it started | The line moves up behind your highest balance |
| Room to lose after a good run | Grows with every dollar you make | Stays about the same, because the line follows you |
Here is the difference on a $100,000 Sprint. You grow the account to $108,000.
- With Stampede's static drawdown, the max loss line is still $94,000. You have $14,000 of room.
- With a 6% trailing drawdown measured from your highest balance, the line would have moved up to $101,520. You would have $6,480 of room.
Static drawdown means profit you make stays as extra room, not as a higher floor.
The Daily Loss Limit Works Differently
The daily loss limit is the one number that moves. It is measured from the balance you start each day with, and it resets at 00:00 UTC.
Take a $100,000 Classic account that ends a day at $105,000. The next day starts at $105,000, so the daily floor is 5% below that, which is $99,750. The max loss line stays at $90,000. Both apply at the same time, and whichever is higher is the one that stops you first. The full wording is on the rules page.

What is a static drawdown prop firm? A prop firm where the max loss limit is a fixed dollar amount set from your starting balance. It does not move up when your account grows, so profits add to your room instead of raising the floor.
