🧮 **How is Trading Score calculated?**

Below is the Trading Score formula we use for the competition. Pick your strategy to get the highest Trading Score!

> ***Each trade PnL% =*****&#x20;PnL before fees / collateral of each trade**
>
> ***Trading Score =*****&#x20;Sum of \[each trade: (PnL %) \* sqrt(volume)]**

For example, you performed 3 trades:

Trade 1: PnL 10% , volume 50K\
Trade 2: PnL -2%, volume 10K\
Trade 3: PnL 7%, volume 12K

Your trading score would be:

10% \* sqrt(50K) — 2% \* sqrt(10K) + 7% \* sqrt(12k)

By using higher leverage on trades where you feel confident, you can increase your probability of winning the competition.
