How scoring works
Season opens
On the official start date and time, all registered teams become active. Only trades placed after the start time count toward the season score.

- Use a sub-account of the Aster account you registered with.

Follower volume counts
Mirror trading volume from followers who join a national trader’s team is added to that team’s total trading volume. — See Rules for the volume minimum.
Season closes
On the official end date and time (TBA, UTC), scoring freezes.Final standings are calculated from net PnL over the full season window. Trades executed after the close — or positions left open at the end of the season — do not count toward the score.(During the competition, every trader may deposit only once per account, capped at 5,000 USDT. Any account caught making additional deposits to trade will be reset to a 0 score and lose prize eligibility. **If you get liquidated and re-deposit, only your previous score is reset to 0. **)
