FAQ

How can I join?

How much should I fund my account with?

Do I need to open a new Trading account?

Can I have more than one trading account?

How do I VERIFY MY WINNINGS?

Can I still join once the tournament has started?

how do I join the legends club?

Can i have open trades at the start of the competition?

Yes, you can. At the beginning of the contest, we ask all participants to submit their account statement showing their balance at the time of entry. This can include accounts with open positions, as long as the equity is clearly documented. Statements must reflect the account’s condition either right before the competition begins (if the market is closed), at the moment of entry, or at any time afterwards if the participant joins later.

what is 'calmar ratio' and how is it calculated?

can I deposit or withdraw funds from my trading account during the tournament?

Yes, you can, but this should be reflected in your statement. However, keep in mind that WSOT prohibits any attempts to manipulate performance metrics by using capital movements, such as making large temporary deposits to inflate returns. For example, depositing a large sum mid-competition to boost equity, making a low-risk profit, then withdrawing the funds to show an exaggerated percentage gain. Such actions distort results and may lead to disqualification. WSOT may review accounts, recalculate performance, or request full trading records to ensure fair competition based on genuine risk and performance.
