TRADE WITH 10x.

Central Cup runs on 10X Trader accounts. Here is what that means for you.

10x
Trading capital
Deposit $250 and trade with $2,500. Your deposit is multiplied 10x.
10%
Max drawdown
Reach a 10% drawdown and you are out of the competition.
1:25
Leverage
Positions are limited to 1:25 leverage.

25%

Open risk on your trades may not exceed 25% of your own deposit.

How you are scored

Your rank is your percentage return on the full 10X capital, so a $250 account can beat a $25,000 one.

Return(end equity - start equity - deposits + withdrawals) / (start equity + deposits)

Deposits during the competition do not count as profit. Withdrawals are added back.
Open positions are valued at the closing price. Equity is snapshotted every hour.
A tie goes to the lowest max drawdown.
You need at least 10 trades to rank for prizes.

The draw

One iPhone 18 Pro Max is drawn live among places 4 to 10. Places 4 to 10 each get one entry. Referrals add extra entries.
