Arena

The game

• Every run drops you into a sealed market you have never seen. Practice and Ranked markets are new for each run and revealed with their seed when the run ends.
• You start with $10,000 in paper money. Pick an amount and leverage (1x to 20x, isolated margin), then go Long or Short. Optional limit price, take profit and stop loss.
• Orders fill on the next candle the server releases. Taker fee 0.06%, maker fee 0.02%, slippage on market and stop orders, funding every 8 hours of replay time. A position is liquidated when a wick touches its liquidation price. Your margin plus fees can never exceed your balance, so you can never go below $0.
• Change speed any time. Up to 10 minutes of pause per run.

Scoring

• Score = return divided by max drawdown (drawdown counts as at least 1%). A run needs at least 3 closed trades to score, so one lucky high leverage trade does not win.
• Ranked weekly score = the average of your best 3 scored Ranked runs that week. Weeks run Sunday 00:00 UTC to Sunday 00:00 UTC.
• Starting a new run or leaving a run plays the old one out to the end with your positions as they are, so bad runs cannot be thrown away.
• Pass +10% with no more than 5% drawdown and at least 3 trades to earn the Warden Certified badge.

Practice

• 50 free Practice runs per UTC day without a wallet. Holders of 10,000+ $WWARD have 100 runs per UTC day. Apex Wardens have 1000 runs per UTC day. Free runs reset at 00:00 UTC. Each run can continue beyond 3 trades and needs 3 closed trades to score. Connect a wallet to save scores. Shared networks have a 150 run guest limit.

Ranked

• Ranked: 10,000 $WWARD per play, 100% burned, nothing goes to the team. Rank and titles only.
• Each Ranked play costs 10,000 $WWARD in one wallet transaction. Every Ranked entry burns 10,000 WWARD. 100% burned, nothing goes to the team. Each wallet can pay for up to 3 Ranked plays per UTC day; a paid play you have not started is kept and never expires. Payments are final and cannot be refunded.
• Ranked is for ranks and titles. Occasional tournament community rewards are announced and paid separately by the WickWarden team. What you get is an official score, your place on the weekly Ranked leaderboard, titles and badges (Weekly Champion, Podium, Top 10, Warden Certified, Ranked Trader, Ranked Veteran) and a place in the Hall of Fame. Titles and badges live on WickWarden only; they cannot be sold, traded or exchanged for anything.
• Titles from a week are awarded after it closes (Sunday 00:00 UTC).

Good to know

• Everything here is paper trading on simulated markets. Nothing here is financial advice and nothing here promises any return. The team holds $WWARD. WickWarden may change or end features with notice on this page; changes never apply to a week or month already in progress.
