How to reach Grand Final in SyntX World Cup 2026?

Find out how Stage 1 qualification works, how Finalists are selected by Region, and what happens during Break Week before the Grand Final begins.

The World Champion is the Finalist with the highest Total Profit in Grand Final. Stage 1 results do not count towards the title, and you need at least 10 closed trades in the Grand Final to be eligible for it.

In Stage 1 you compete against the other participants in your own Region. When the stage ends, all open positions are closed automatically and your account value is recorded as your Stage 1 result.

Top traders in each Region — as long as they have met the 10-trade minimum — go through as Finalists, according to these quotas:

Nobody trades during Break Week. We publish the qualification results, notify the Finalists, reset every Finalist's account to a $10,000 balance and switch off trading on the accounts that did not qualify. The Prediction Game also opens during this week.

Only Finalists trade in the Grand Final. Everyone starts again from fresh $10,000 — Stage 1 profits do not carry over — and all Finalists compete together on a single global Leaderboard. At the end, open positions are closed automatically and your account value becomes your Grand Final result.
