Stop Hunt

Pass the challenge. Don't get hunted.

Stop Hunt is a prop-firm challenge roguelike played on real NQ futures price action.

You get a $50K evaluation account and two rules that end careers: a daily loss limit and a trailing drawdown. Hit the profit target on at least 3 trading days without breaking either rule and you are funded. Then trade the funded account for payouts. Withdraw too early and your cushion shrinks. Get greedy and the account is gone.

One breach and the run is over.

How a run works

• Every day is a real New York session. 09:30 to 16:00 replays candle by candle from real NQ 5-minute data. The date stays hidden, so you can't look it up.
• Pre-market briefing. You see yesterday's range, the overnight high and low, and the opening gap. Then ring the bell.
• Trade with a real bracket. Buy or sell NQ or MNQ. Your stop and target are set by distance (auto-sized to recent volatility) or dragged straight onto the chart. In a trade they lock, and you have to choose deliberately to move them.
• Two limits, no mercy. Lose the daily limit and you are flattened for the day. Touch the trailing drawdown floor once and the run ends, even on a green day.
• Pick a perk between days. Second Chance, Cheap Fills, Clean Fills, Scaling Plan, Scout Report and more.
• Survive market events. Every 4th day something hits for 3 days: News Week, Chop Season, Tight Leash, Bad Fills, Fee Hike or a Risk Desk Warning.
• Get a discipline grade every day (A–F). Revenge trades, oversizing, widening your stop and overtrading cost you. Walking away after a bad stretch earns credit.
• Climb the accounts. Pass the $50K to unlock the $100K, then the $150K. Your score is the total payouts you take home.

Why "Stop Hunt"?

Every trader knows the feeling: price spikes through your stop by one tick, then rips the other way. This game is about the other stop hunt too, the one the rules run on you. Most funded challenges aren't failed by bad entries. They're failed by size, revenge and a trailing drawdown that creeps up behind you. Stop Hunt lets you feel that pressure, and practise handling it, for free.

Important

No real money is involved. All balances, profits and payouts are simulated, calculated with real contract values and typical fees. The price data is real historical data; past price action says nothing about the future. Stop Hunt is a training game, not financial advice, and it isn't affiliated with any prop firm or exchange.
