# The 6 Pillars

Your Trader Score is a weighted composite of six metrics.

| Pillar               | Weight | What It Measures                                       |
| -------------------- | ------ | ------------------------------------------------------ |
| Win Rate             | 25%    | Percentage of battles where you finish in the top half |
| Risk-Adjusted Return | 25%    | Returns normalized by the risk you took (Sharpe-like)  |
| Consistency          | 20%    | How stable your performance is across battles          |
| Average ROI          | 15%    | Your mean return percentage across all battles         |
| Max Drawdown         | 10%    | The worst peak-to-trough drop in any single battle     |
| Battle Count         | 5%     | Total number of battles played (rewards experience)    |

## Win Rate (25%)

Finishing in the top half of a lobby counts as a win. This pillar rewards showing up and consistently outperforming the field. You don't need first place every time. Just don't be in the bottom half.

## Risk-Adjusted Return (25%)

Raw returns are easy to inflate with high leverage. This pillar adjusts for risk. A +10% return at 2x leverage scores much higher than a +10% return at 50x leverage.

## Consistency (20%)

Measures the standard deviation of your returns. Low variance = high consistency = high score here. A trader who returns +3%, +4%, +2%, +5% across four battles scores higher on consistency than one who goes +20%, -15%, +8%, -5%.

## Average ROI (15%)

Your mean return percentage across all battles. Straightforward -- make money more often than you lose it.

## Max Drawdown (10%)

The worst intra-battle drawdown across your history. Keeps you honest about risk management. One blowup drags this pillar down for a long time.

## Battle Count (5%)

Small weight, but it rewards experience. Two traders with identical metrics -- the one with 200 battles has a slightly higher score than the one with 20. Playing more games at the same skill level should be rewarded.

## Volatility adjustment

All returns are adjusted for asset volatility. A +5% return during a low-volatility session is worth more than +5% during a wild swing. This prevents score inflation from lucky timing during volatile markets.
