We study the duality cascade of softly broken supersymmetric theories.
We investigate the renormalization group (RG) flow of SUSY breaking
terms as well as supersymmetric couplings. It is found that the magnitudes
of SUSY breaking terms are suppressed in most regimes of the RG flow
through the duality cascade. At one stage of cascading, the gaugino mass
of the strongly coupled sector and scalar masses converge to certain
values, which are determined by the gauge coupling and the gaugino mass of
the weakly coupled sector.
At the next stage, the strongly and weakly coupled
sectors are interchanged with each other. We also show the possibility that
cascading would be terminated by the gauge symmetry breaking, which is
induced by the so-called B-term.
