World Cup Trading Contest

How it works

• The contest runs across the five World Cup knockout rounds — Round of 32 through the Final. Trade the designated markets on Signal during the knockout stage.
• You don't have to trade during the match — any eligible trade on the designated markets counts, whether you open the position before kickoff or while the game is live. Positions are scored from entry to exit.

Entering

• You must be 18+, have a Signal account in good standing, deposit at least $100, and make trades before the deadline (19 Jul 2026). One account per person.

Trading volume

• To stay eligible for each round's prize, reach a cumulative trading volume by that round's cutoff — Round of 32 $1,000 · Round of 16 $1,500 · Quarters $2,000 · Semis $2,500 · Final $3,000. Thresholds are cumulative across the contest, not per round.

Scoring & prizes

• $10,000 total prize pool, awarded to the top trader in each round: R32 $1,000 · R16 $1,500 · QF $2,000 · SF $2,500 · Final $3,000.
• Each round has its own leaderboard, plus an overall leaderboard. You're ranked by your trading performance (P&L) on the eligible markets.
• You can win at most one prize. Volume and number of trades are shown alongside your standing but don't determine your rank.
• The live leaderboard is provisional — final standings are certified after the contest ends, once volume, eligibility, and compliance checks are complete.

Fair play

• Wash trading, multiple accounts, bots, market or leaderboard manipulation, and circumventing geo or compliance restrictions are prohibited and can lead to disqualification.
