Leaderboards

There are two leaderboards, each based on a different trading metric:

ROI Leaderboard — $8,000 Prize Pool

  • Rankings are based on your Return on Investment (ROI).
  • ROI is calculated using realized profits only. Any profit or loss from open trades is not included.
  • Deposits and withdrawals are taken into account to ensure they do not affect your ROI calculation.

Volume Leaderboard — $2,000 Prize Pool

  • Rankings are based on the total number of lots traded.
  • Only closed trades count towards your trading volume.
  • Open trades and their floating P&L are not included.
