The Floor is where traders meet to compete. You enter Rooms, small live contests of 20 to 40 traders, trade your edge over a fixed window, and the top finishers take the pool. Entry starts at $7, top places pay 3 to 14 times the entry, and you can play from a free Open account on day one. No challenge, no funded account required.
Think of the Floor as the trading hall and each Room as a table you sit down at. A Room opens, a set of traders join, everyone trades their own account over the same window, and when it closes the Room ranks everyone and pays the top finishers from the prize pool. You are always trading your own positions, a Room simply measures how you did against the others who sat down with you.
Pick an open Room and pay the entry. Fees start at $7. Your seat is locked in for that window.
Trade your own account normally. The Room records your start equity, your end equity, and your drawdown across the window.
At close, everyone is scored on risk-adjusted performance, return measured against drawdown, and ranked best to worst.
The prize pool is split among the top finishers. Winnings land in your wallet, withdrawable.
This is what makes the Floor different from anything else. You are not locked to one Room. You can enter the same account and the same positions into many Rooms running at the same time. Each Room scores your performance independently against its own field, so a single strong session can place in all of them at once. Your edge does not get spread thin, it compounds across every Room you entered.
In a giant pooled contest you are one of thousands, and one result is one shot at one prize. The odds are a jackpot.
Trade well for an hour and that single performance can finish top-three in ten different Snap Rooms simultaneously. Ten payouts from one hour of trading.
Rooms come in six formats, from fast hourly Snaps to month-long Majors. Shorter Rooms mean more shots per day and faster payouts, longer Rooms carry bigger pools and weigh more toward your Rating.
Every Room's prize pool is funded by its entries and split among the top finishers. The smaller your finish position, the larger your cut. These are real payouts at a typical 30-trader field, and a payout floor guarantees no paid place ever earns back less than the entry fee.
Figures at a 30-trader field. Larger fields pay more, up to ~19× for 1st on a full 40-trader Snap. Longer formats pay more places (Sprint top 5, Cup top 6, Major top 8).
A Room does not simply reward whoever gambled biggest. Every trader is scored on risk-adjusted performance: your return over the window, measured against the drawdown you took to get it. A steady, controlled gain can out-rank a wild swing that nearly blew up. This is the same discipline that builds your Rating, so competing on the Floor and building a professional record are the same act.
Rewards the trader who happened to size up and get lucky. Punishes nobody for risk. That is a casino.
Rewards the trader who made the cleaner gain with less heat. Skill and control rise to the top. That is a desk.
Because one performance can place across many Rooms, a genuinely good trading day can stack into real money. Here is an honest illustration using real payouts, not a promise. Most Rooms pay only the top finishers, and a weak day costs you the entries. The Floor rewards skill and consistency, it is not guaranteed income.
An illustration of a strong day for a skilled trader placing across many Rooms. Not typical, not guaranteed. Your results depend entirely on your trading.
Floor winnings are immediate cash, but they are not the whole story. Competing in Rooms also moves your Desk Rating, the score that unlocks funded capital from $25K to $10M. Longer formats carry more Rating weight. So the Floor is both the fastest way to earn today and a direct on-ramp to a funded trading career. Play for the cash, climb for the capital.
