perpdex.tv Trading Competition Rules

Official rules and guidelines for the trading competition

All participants start with an initial balance of $500 (USDC/USDT).
Each trader has an additional $500 safety balance (extra margin) and may immediately re-enter using this balance in the event of liquidation.
Traders who complete the entire competition without using their safety balance will have 105% of that balance added to their final profit total.
Alternatively, participants may choose to start with a single $1,000 balance and compete without re-entry.

The match consists of two 20-minute trading rounds, with a 5-minute break in between.
Leverage, position direction, and entry/exit timing are entirely up to each trader’s strategy.

During the break, traders may freely hold or close positions.
Holding or closing during the break is allowed, but viewers will not see any trades or outcomes until the second round begins.

A real-time P&L leaderboard will be displayed during the match, with updated rankings shown after halftime and at the end of the final round.
At the end of the competition, the trader with the highest total profit will be declared the winner.

The champion will receive either a fixed prize of $1,000 or the combined remaining balance of 1st–4th place, whichever is greater.
