No. TradeSport is a skill-based platform, and the Terms of Service are explicit about how it works:
- Outcomes are determined by skill — your trading decisions and performance measured against published, objective rules. Not by chance, lottery mechanics, or random selection.
- Entry fees are not wagers. Your fee buys access to a simulated trading account and the right to compete under the published rules — it is not a bet on an event.
- Payouts are performance-based. Challenge payouts are earned by hitting published profit targets while following the rules. Trade League payouts go to the top 10% of paid entries ranked by final simulated P&L — pure relative performance.
- No real capital is at risk in trades. All trading is simulated, and your entry fee is the most you can lose.
Every rule you're measured against — profit targets, drawdown limits, winning-day requirements, consistency rules — is published before you buy, and your account keeps the rules it was sold under.
TradeSport is not a brokerage, exchange, or investment adviser, and nothing on the platform is investment advice.
