Pick Stocks. Make Money.

Akin to fantasy sports, our trading competitions simulate the competitive trading of stocks between a pool of users that are vying to achieve the highest return. The Trigga App facilitates both public and private trading competitions called pools. Public pools are available to all users and private pools are only accessible through an invitation. 
Whereas in fantasy sports where users accumulate points based on their roster’s in-game performance, with Trigga, users move up or down on the leaderboard based on the percentage performance of their simulated holdings. Simulated trading competitions are excellent tools to test and crowdsource different investment strategies.  
Investing and trading competitions are performed in daily, weekly and monthly pools.

In the context of stocks, copy-trading involves the active replication of portfolio holdings based on the buy and sell decisions of a different user that is perceived to have more expertise, knowledge and overall success in the investment field. As the name implies, copy-trading involves copying trades of an individual or a collection of individuals that will ultimately bring you a positive return without you having to do deep research or technical analysis. Within the Trigga App this is achieved by observing the other user’s active portfolio holdings and receiving notifications of any changes.

Intraday position enters and exits are updated with live market prices. Positions added/exited while the markets are closed will be added/exited at market open on the next trading day. Market open prices are pulled 20 seconds after the opening bell. During the trading day all prices and portfolio return calculations are updated every minute.

If you are participating in competitive pools, you can see the portfolios of other users only after the pool has closed and the competition has started. Personal active portfolios of other users are only visible after subscription.

The active portfolio feature of the Trigga App is available to all users and it’s separate from the users’ temporary portfolios created to compete in pools. Each active portfolio begins with a hypothetical $1 and all “Additions” and “Exits” need to have a minimum weight of 0.05 or 5% of the $1. A position must be fully exited before the user can increase its overall weight in the portfolio. The size of the portfolio can grow or decline corresponding with the holdings of the portfolio and the user’s position management. The active portfolio is permanent and immutable and it's what your subscribers will be monitoring.

Subscription functionality will be turned on for users in the 90% percentile of the leaderboard and who have shown a consistent track record of positive returns. The platform takes 20% of your subscription income.

Although paper trading tools exist at different brokerages, their uptake and utility remains limited and  your ultimate skill level is only known to you once you invest with real money and put your capital at risk. The Trigga App bridges the divides between  paper trading, investing communities and entertainment. Our solution incentivizes learning through competitive practice and constant benchmarking to others. It is easier to learn by seeing concepts work in practice, albeit simulated. Use the Trigga App to find the trends, opportunities, and mispricings. The core principles that underpin our Platform are that (1) investing and trading are increasingly becoming a socially-imitative process, (2) investors and traders are inherently competitive people, and (3) financial incentives and profit-seeking are the ultimate objectives.

Although this is true on a one-off basis, a track record of trades with positive results is not a fluke and cannot be sustained by YOLO behavior. The Trigga App uses pool competitions and informative statistics to create an accurate fantasy-trader profile that allows users to assess one another, follow and backtest strategies, and promote users as idea-leaders by subscribing to their content.
