Enter the amount you'd like to allocate (minimum $1.00). The funds leave your wallet immediately and are tracked against that trader's performance. You can allocate to multiple traders simultaneously and remove allocations at any time to reclaim your funds.

Stock prices are fetched from the Finnhub market data API in real time. Prices are cached for up to 60 seconds to stay within API rate limits. All position profits are calculated using these live prices.
A cron job runs every minute and executes one simulation cycle — opening new positions for active traders and closing positions that have hit their target or stop-loss thresholds. Your portfolio value updates accordingly.
Yes. You can remove any active allocation from your dashboard or from the trader's detail page. Your current value (original amount ± unrealised P&L) is returned to your wallet immediately.
