What is the DeepCharts Competition?
The DeepCharts Competition is a skill-based trading tournament where participants trade on a simulated demo account and compete against other traders. Performance is tracked in real time on the competition leaderboard.
Important: You will need an active DeepCharts platform license and a live data feed (Rithmic or dxFeed) to participate. The 15-minute delayed feed is not supported for the competition as V-Sim executes positions in real time market conditions.
1. How to Join the Competition
- Log in to your DeepCharts Dashboard at my.deepcharts.com
- Click on Contest in the left sidebar
- You will see the active competition — click Join Competition
- A confirmation prompt will appear — click Join to confirm

2. Get Your Competition Credentials
Once you have joined and refreshed the page, your participation status will update.
- Click See Credentials

A popup will appear showing your competition account credentials:
- Username

3. Connect Your Competition Account to DeepCharts
- Open DeepCharts

- You are now ready to trade — your balance will show $50,000 as the starting balance

Note: Your live data feed (Rithmic or dxFeed) must remain connected at all times to view real time market data. V-Sim is only used to execute trades on your competition account — it does not provide market data.
