How it works

Browse the Challenges page and pick a contest that fits your style. Challenges come in different formats:

• Hourly — fast-paced, 1-hour sprints
• Daily — pick your stocks in the morning, results by market close
• Weekly / Monthly — longer-term strategy plays
• Private — invite-only leagues with friends

Each challenge shows the entry fee (many are free), prize pool, number of players, and start time. Tap Enter to join.

Once you've joined, you'll be taken to the Draft screen. Here you:

1. 1Browse the available stock universe (typically 30-40 NYSE stocks)
2. 2Select 3-5 stocks you believe will outperform
3. 3Set your allocation — how much of your virtual portfolio goes to each stock

You can reopen Edit picks anytime until the contest starts. Starting allocations lock at go-live; after that, trade live on the Trade tab. Research each stock's sector, market cap, 52-week range, and recent performance before locking in.

When the challenge goes live, head to the Game screen. You'll see:

• Race — live leaderboard and the field
• Trade — buy, sell, limits, stop-loss, and take-profit while the contest is active
• Field — what other players are holding

Standings shift as the market moves. A player in 1st at 10 AM might drop to 5th by noon — that's what makes it exciting.

When the challenge ends, final standings are locked based on each portfolio's total return percentage.

• Top finishers (usually top 3) win prizes from the pool
• All players earn XP and can unlock achievements
• Streaks — play consecutive days to unlock prize bonuses (up to +15%)

Winnings are credited to your wallet instantly. From there you can enter more challenges or withdraw to your bank account.
