New Feature: TraderWaves Leaderboard
TraderWaves Team • 25 April 2025 • 5 min read

1. What Is the TraderWaves Leaderboard?
The TraderWaves Leaderboard is a live ranking system that tracks your trading performance. It is a trading competition leaderboard without being tied to passing a prop firm challenge and without being pay to enter. Unlike traditional prop firm competitions that often limit ranking to live accounts, our free trading leaderboard is built for all traders. Whether you're trading demo or live, running a small account or a large one, you can rank fairly and transparently. To keep rankings fair, you can rank by percentage return or total profit, and view results on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis. This means traders focused on steady percentage growth can compete right alongside high-profit traders. We focus on showcasing your best trading days, not dwelling on the setbacks, so you can confidently share your trading wins publicly and claim your spotlight. If you prefer to stay private, you can still compete anonymously for personal benchmarking.

3. What the Leaderboard Shows
Our new leaderboard allows you to rank in different ways including:
Demo vs Live: Use the toggle to see where your demo and live accounts rank. They are judged separately for the sake of fairness and extra competition.
Daily, weekly & monthly rankings: You can see how you have performed that day, week or month compared to your fellow traders.
Percentage gain vs profit: Rank by either metric. You can still show up and rank even with a smaller account. Profit is impressive but so is consistency.
You can choose to stay anonymous or to publicly show your trading results.

4. How It Syncs With the Rest of TraderWaves
The leaderboard is more than just a ranking, it’s another way to measure your trading performance. All of your accounts can compete simultaneously, whether you’re testing strategies on demo or running different live accounts. It’s a simple way to assess and compare your performance across different strategies, risk levels, or timeframes all in one place. The leaderboard data reflects the same core metrics already tracked in your Trade Analytics Dashboard: profit, percentage gain, and win rate. Use the trade journal to tag top 25 finishes, identify winning setups, and see what’s driving your leaderboard momentum. The leaderboard connects directly to the rest of your TraderWaves toolkit, offering another metric for growth, reflection, and progress.
