Who this guide is for

For traders looking for transparent competitions without screenshots or manual result submissions.

TradeCast competitions are designed around connected accounts and closed activity, so traders do not need to submit screenshots manually.

Competition ranking uses the selected competition account and the competition window. Public profiles are not required to enter.

The goal is a leaderboard where visitors can understand the ranking basis and traders can compete on a clearer record.
