Trade the Tournament, Not Just the Market

Tournament trading is its own discipline. These are the fundamentals that separate consistent finishers from one-hit wonders.

01

Tournament maths beats trading maths

You are not maximising expected return, you are maximising the chance of finishing in the paid places. In a winner-takes-all Sit & Go, second place pays the same as last.

02

Size for the clock, not the conviction

A 15-minute event and a weekly event demand different risk. Short formats reward decisive size; long formats reward survival and compounding.

03

Drawdown is the tiebreaker

Equal returns are split by lowest maximum drawdown. A smoother equity curve is worth real money in close finishes.

04

Read the field, not just the chart

The live opponent panel shows where you stand. Chasing from behind late justifies risk that would be reckless while leading.

05

Costs are real here

Spread, slippage and fees are modelled. Overtrading a chop bleeds your balance exactly the way it does in a live account.

06

Practise on free rolls

Free-to-play seats use the same tournament engine. Build a repeatable process without risking capital.
