Stocktwitsโ first-ever trading competition kicked off last week. In these real money trading competitions, our contestants compete for eternal glory and bragging rights as the best trader on Stocktwits. The first weekly tournament featured some of our longest-tenured community legends going at it head-to-head, and it ended up being a real nail-biter. ๐ฌ
The leaderboard was all in the green to various degrees, helped by a bullish backdrop in the market. For most of the week, CtheLightTrading was in the lead, slowly and steadily making gains with HeyShoe closely behind. ๐ค
However, BearishBulls_ emerged as the leader on Friday and held onto the top spot by a small margin. Those following along saw that his bullish bets in the tech sector helped propel him into the top spot. Congrats to him for winning the first trading competition, and props to everyone else who participated. ๐ช

The second week of competition is off to a hot start, with one trader notching a 180% gain already. ๐ฎ
Here’s a look at ChipBrommer’s bearish $SPOT trade that helped secure him a SPOT on top of the leaderboard. A nearly 80% gain on one trade is music to a trader’s ears. ๐ถ
With that said, it’s still early, and there’s plenty of competition left to go. To follow along or show off your trading skills, click here.ย
