Terms

The rules of the league.

PipsDuel is a skill-based trading league. You compete on your own live broker account; we verify the results and rank them. These are the terms you agree to by taking part.

Effective date: 26 June 2026

1. Acceptance

By joining a PipsDuel challenge, connecting a broker account, or otherwise using pipsduel.com (the “Service”), you agree to these Terms. If you don't agree, don't use the Service.

2. What PipsDuel is

A trading league. Each challenge runs for a fixed window in which entrants trade their own live broker accounts; PipsDuel reads each account read-only and ranks entrants by verified profit (PnL). PipsDuel is not a broker, an exchange, a fund, or a money manager. We never hold, trade, or have access to move your funds.

3. Eligibility

You must be at least 18 (or the age of majority where you live) and legally allowed to trade with the partner broker in your jurisdiction. It's your responsibility to make sure participation is lawful where you are.

4. How entries work

  • Open a live account at the challenge's partner broker through PipsDuel's link. Opened any other way, the entry doesn't qualify — the link is what keeps entry free and the prizes funded.
  • Connect the account with your read-only (investor) password. We read equity to rank you; we can't trade or withdraw.
  • Trade at least the challenge's stated minimum lots within the window to be eligible. No deposit-and-sit.
  • Highest verified PnL at the close wins. Standings are read directly from the broker, so they can't be faked.

5. Prizes

The prize for each challenge is the amount stated on that challenge and is guaranteed by PipsDuel— it is not pooled from entry fees, because there are none. The prize is paid to the eligible entrant with the highest verified PnL at the close, provided they met the minimum-lots rule and opened through our partner link. We may ask a winner to verify identity before paying. If a challenge can't run for reasons outside our control, we'll either reschedule it or notify entrants.

6. Free entry & affiliate relationship

There is no entry fee. PipsDuel earns a commission (a rebate) from the partner broker when you open and trade through our link, and that rebate is what funds the prizes. You are never charged by PipsDuel.

7. Risk disclosure

Trading involves real capital and real risk of loss. You trade your own live account with your own money, and you can lose some or all of it. Nothing on PipsDuel — leaderboards, challenges, or any content — is investment advice, a recommendation, or a promise of profit. Trade only what you can afford to lose.

8. Fair play

Entries must be genuine: one real, self-funded account opened through our link, traded by you. Sharing accounts, copying another entrant's positions to game the board, opening outside our link, or any attempt to falsify results means disqualification and forfeiture of any prize. We verify standings by hand and reserve the right to remove anyone who breaks these rules.

9. Limitation of liability

The Service is provided “as is”. To the maximum extent permitted by law, PipsDuel isn't liable for trading losses you incur, for the acts of any partner broker, or for interruptions to broker data feeds outside our control. Our total liability for any claim relating to the Service is limited to the prize value of the challenge in question.

10. Changes & contact

We may update these Terms; material changes will be dated above and, where appropriate, emailed to participants. Questions? Email support@pipsduel.com or reach us on our Telegram channel.
