HOW IT WORKS

  1. Each player has their own Alpaca paper-trading account, starting at $100,000.
  2. Trade equities only — no margin, no options (yet).
  3. Every market day after close, each player's machine posts a snapshot (equity, cash, positions) to this leaderboard.
  4. API keys never leave your machine. The leaderboard only ever sees the final numbers.
  5. Ranked by total ROI %. Click a row to see that player's positions and equity curve.

Think you can beat them?
