🥅 How to win
There are three ways to win.
- PnL Rank (net profit)
a. The top 30 traders ranked by PnL during the competition period will win prizes.
b. The trader with the worst PnL will win the Consolation prize. - Volume Pool
The 10 traders with the highest trading volume (USDC) will share a prize pool according to their weighted trading volume.
Reward Calculation: Reward for top 10 traders by vol. = (Individual trading volume / total trading volume of top 10 traders) * 10000 PERP. - Win Ratio
Traders who make 10 or more trades during the trading competition are eligible to win the Win Ratio Prize.
- The trader who closes the most positive-PnL trades vs their total trades will win.
- Ties will be settled by no. of trades (higher no. of trades wins).
- Prize will be split if there is still a tie.
Win ratio calculation per trader: (Trades with positive realized PnL) / (Total trades)
