Leaderboard & Scoring

The leaderboard ranks traders using a weighted scoring formula that rewards consistent, active trading, not just raw PnL:
Score = 20% × Account PnL% + 50% × No. of Trades + 30% × No. of Active Days
FactorWeightWhat It Measures
Account PnL%20%Overall profitability relative to your account
No. of Trades50%Trading activity and engagement
No. of Active Days30%Consistency over time
This means the most active and consistent traders have the best chance of climbing the leaderboard, even without the highest PnL percentage.
The scoring formula is subject to change based on community feedback to ensure fair and competitive gameplay.
