How to qualify (double opt-in)

You are not on the leaderboard by default — participation is a deliberate two-step opt-in:

  • •Turn your public profile on. The leaderboard only reads profiles whose status is ON.
  • •Select a leaderboard API key. In your public-profile / top-traders settings, choose the active API key whose results should be ranked, and save.

What counts

Only closed trades count — floating profit on open positions is ignored. And only trades opened after you added that API key to the service participate, since the deposit baseline starts from then.

The chosen API key must be an enabled, connected key. A disabled or removed key drops you from the ranking.

The two leagues

The leaderboard has two leagues, each with a Top of the Day and a Top of the Month ranking:

  • •Open league — open access; any qualifying trader competes here.
  • •PRO league — entered automatically after a selection period. See the mechanic below.

The PRO league: a 3-point mechanic

Entry into the PRO league is fully automatic — you do not change how you trade. Each week the system reviews your trading against its criteria and awards or removes one point:

  • •Meet the weekly criteria → +1 point (capped at 3).
  • •Miss them → −1 point.
  • •Reach 3 points → you enter the PRO league.
  • •Once in, missing the criteria costs a point; drop to 0 and you leave the PRO league, and the process restarts.

Taking a break

Because you enter at 3 points and only lose one per missed week, you can pause trading for a couple of weeks without immediately losing your league status.

How the ranking is calculated

The ranking is the percentage your deposit grew over the period — the current day (UTC) for Top of the Day, the current month for Top of the Month. The board updates about once an hour.

Percentages compound. Example: a $100 deposit, Trade A +$10 = +10%, then Trade B +$10 = +9% (the deposit is now $110), for +19% total.

Prizes

Prizes go to 1st–3rd place. Winning Top of the Day earns an achievement on your public profile. Winning Top of the Month earns a one-month subscription extension — or a month of the Trader plan if you do not have an active subscription.

Why am I not in the Top?

A few common reasons:

  • •The board has not refreshed yet — it updates hourly, so a fresh connection may need to wait.
  • •You have not opted in — enable your public profile and select a leaderboard API key.
  • •You just added the key — only trades opened after that count.
  • •Your closed-trade growth is not high enough — floating profit does not count, only realized.
