Rudder - Overview

Understand how the Rudder challenge works, including objectives, structure, and progression to a funded account.

Updated over a week ago

The Rudder challenge is a single-phase evaluation designed for traders who want a direct path to funding while being assessed on both performance and discipline.

Unlike standard models, the funded stage introduces the Flagship Discipline Rating (FDR), which determines your payout split based on how consistently and responsibly you trade.
