adding total pips over all contests or at least totaling per year would be a nice feature for the scoreboards.

like this every observer can translate easily how much money he could have made with that trader translated to his own account or POS. size size...i am just thinking of your plans regarding the follower function!

net pip profit or loss show if there is a winning quality, although this is not a guarantee for growth when the MM or RM is missing! i would add that to the scorboard.

i guess rahul would lead that scoreboard right now by far.

please think about that.

Thank you for the proposal.
Such features are expected to supplement the "Contest standings" tab in future. We will be adding more aggregate scoreboards depicting participants leading in particular categories in the long-term.

this will make it even more fun and it will be easier to determine the permanently winning traders from the ones who do not generate positive pip balances....

and of course it will also display traders with extraordinary pip success like for example rahul.

GREAT STUFF!

Adding accumulated pips for the course of the year is a ridiculous proposal.

The goal in a monthly contest is to do well that month. Therefore, if you're "on the bubble" it's worth it to risk everything to come-in-the-money. Whether you blow up your account or not is immaterial. Next month you start with a new bankroll. So, sound money management dictates playing "all-in" for the contest month, not for long term growth of an imaginary bankroll.
