How this fits with payback

Contest prizes go to those who rank; payback comes with every trade. Keep these points in mind when choosing a contest.

• ROI vs PnL contests ROI is a percentage, so small accounts can rank — but chasing high returns tempts heavy leverage. PnL is an amount, so larger trading favours you.
• Volume rankings more volume means more fees. Payback returns part of them, but not all.
• Different payback rates on this site's table Gate is 75%, Bybit 64% and WOO X Pro 93%. Toobit (70%) and OKX (55%) are the figures shown on TetherMax's official home page.
• Overlapping dates several contests end around the same time, so focusing on the one exchange you already use is easier to manage.
