Detailed rules

Each objective explained with examples and notes where available.

Profit Target

STEP 1 · 5%

Reach the 5% profit target while respecting all risk limits. Profit is calculated from closed positions only. All positions must be closed before the target can be reviewed.

Maximum Overall Loss

OVERALL LIMIT 6% STATIC

Your total account loss must not exceed 6% of the initial balance. If this limit is breached at any point, the account is no longer valid. This includes unrealized P&L from open positions.

Leverage

MAX LEVERAGE 1:30

Steady provides leverage up to 1:30, giving you flexibility in position sizing while maintaining responsible risk management.

Flexibility That Works For You

NO MINIMUM TRADING DAYS

Trade on your schedule. There is no minimum number of trading days required to complete the challenge or receive a payout. You are not required to trade a certain number of days to pass a challenge or be eligible for a payout.

Rewards & Payouts

AVAILABLE AFTER FUNDED

Rewards and payouts are not available during Step 1. After you pass Step 1, pay the remaining fee, and reach Funded, you become eligible for performance-based rewards subject to Funded rules and Terms & Conditions.

Maximum Daily Loss

DAILY LIMIT 3%

Your daily loss must not exceed 3%. Equity — including open positions, commissions, and swaps — must never fall below the allowed daily loss limit. The limit resets at midnight CE(S)T each day based on the account balance at that time.

Maximum Risk Per Symbol

NO MAXIMUM RISK PER SYMBOL

Steady does not apply a maximum risk per symbol limit. Traders must still comply with all other account risk and drawdown rules.

Time Limit

NO TIME LIMIT

Steady has no time limit. Progress at your own pace without unnecessary pressure.

Consistency Score

NOT APPLIED DURING STEP 1

Consistency Score is not applied during Step 1. Focus on reaching the 5% profit target while staying within the daily and overall loss limits.
