Rules summary
Ranked by highest percentage return at the close (21:00 UTC, 30 October 2026). 5% daily drawdown (from opening equity each day) and 10% maximum drawdown (static, from the starting balance); breaching either limit ends the run. Trading is simulated under live market conditions, and Pipster's standard prohibited-strategy policy applies.
Eligibility
Free to enter: create a Pipster account and enrol from the Competitions tab of the dashboard; no card, purchase or deposit is required. Strictly one competition account per person; multiple or coordinated accounts are disqualified. Prize eligibility requires trading on at least 2 separate calendar days, and no single day may account for more than 75% of total net P&L. Results are provisional for up to 72 hours pending Pipster's integrity review.
Platform
Match-Trader. Competition accounts are generated from 21:00 UTC on 25 October 2026, and login credentials are emailed to the registered Pipster address.
