TraderChamp is a skill-based fantasy stock contest. Pick five stocks; your score is the sum of their percent change from the 09:30 ET open to the 16:00 ET close.
TraderChamp does not execute real stock trades. No shares are bought or sold, and no real money is traded.
Every contest is built from the same three pieces: five stock slots, one portfolio score and a ranking against the other players.
Fill all five before picks lock at 09:25 ET. Each slot shows its symbol and its move from the open.
The five percent changes are added together. Gains raise your score, losses lower it.
Players are ranked by portfolio score, in a 1 vs 1 or across a tournament table.
Three steps, decided by one trading day.
Pick an open contest, or create your own and invite players by e-mail.
Search and add exactly five. You can change them until picks lock at 09:25 ET.
Your score is the sum of the five percent changes from the 09:30 ET open to the 16:00 ET close.
Every format is scored the same way, on the same trading day.
Leaderboards rank players by percentage return, from a single day to all time.
Each pick counts by its percent change, not its dollar change. A $20 stock can add more to your score than a $1,000 stock.
