Same balance. Same time. One trader finishes on top.
Duel now →A trading contest cut down to its simplest form: you against one other trader.
Most trading competitions put hundreds of entrants in one pool, run for weeks and pay out a single prize. Alpha Arena does the opposite. A duel is two people. You both put in the same stake, you both trade the same window, and at the end the stronger performance takes the money.
The pot is the two stakes together. The winner receives 80% of it. Both traders receive the same demo balance and trading window.
It is built for traders who want a real scoreboard: a specific opponent, a defined window, and a result that means something at the end of it.
Three steps, start to payout
Both traders stake
Two traders agree on the same stake and both put it in. The two stakes together form the pot for that duel.
Both trade the same window
The duel runs over one agreed window on the same terms, so the only variable left is how each trader performs.
The better result takes the pot
At the end of the window, the trader with the higher percentage return wins the stated share of the pot.

Built for a straight fight
One opponent, not a leaderboard
You are not chasing hundreds of anonymous entrants for one prize. It is you against one trader, and the result is decided between the two of you.
The maths is on the page
The stake, combined pot and winner prize are displayed before you enter a duel.
Start small
A duel can start at $5 a side. Trading takes place on a demo account, not with your stake.
Skill, not luck
Both sides face the same market over the same window. The result comes from the trading, not from a draw.
