Frequently asked questions

To enter the competition, click the "Join The Leap" button on the competition page. A confirmation pop-up will appear where you can review the main competition conditions and complete your registration.

  • Registration closes on September 25 at 08:00, so don't miss your chance to join.
  • Orders can be placed only after the official start time to keep conditions fair for everyone.
  • If you register after the start of the contest, you can begin trading immediately and stay in the game until the very end. You'll not receive any extra time if you've registered later.

  • Paid plan users — Eligible to participate.
  • Former paid plan users — Eligible to participate.
  • Free plan users — Eligible to participate.

A participant's place in the competition depends on the realized profit/loss on their Paper Trading competition account. Realized profit/loss is the profit/loss on closed positions. The greater the realized profit/loss, the higher the place of the participant.


Note that at the end of the competition, all open positions will be automatically closed. The realized profit/loss of automatically closed positions will be taken into account to summarize the final results of the contest.

After you register for the contest, a separate Paper Trading account will be created for you. To trade in the competition:
  1. Log into Paper Trading.
  2. In the Manage accounts menu, select the account with the name "The Leap".
  3. Start trading when the competition opens.

Important rules:
  • Only realized profit/loss from trades made during the competition will count toward the score on the leaderboard.
  • All competition accounts are created with the same initial balance and identical settings for every participant.
  • The parameters of competition accounts cannot be changed.
  • To leave the competition, delete your The Leap sub-account in Paper Trading Account Manager; all your results will be deleted, and you will not be eligible for prizes. Once deleted, you cannot re-register for the same competition.
You can find out all the details in the Terms and Conditions page before registration. Once registration is complete, you can select your The Leap account and filter by symbols available for the competition in Symbol search. Use the button with the Paper Trading logo to do so.
