Update 19 September 2026: Tradeify’s Premier Trading League prize pool is $1 million, not the $1.3 million figure that appeared in earlier help-center copy and our original coverage.
Official competition pages and The Prop Journalist’s 17 September write-up both list a clean $1M total: $300k for Open 1, $300k for Open 2, and $400k for the World Finale in Fort Lauderdale on 11 December. The Creator Division $300k that had pushed the earlier total to $1.3M was removed.
Everything else about the structure still holds. Free entry, two separate Opens with eight head-to-head matches each, $50k simulated accounts, points for wins plus capped profit, uncapped loss deductions, and a mid-season cut after Match 4. Optional paid resets ($25 match or $50 full) are the only cost.
Tradeify continues to claim $300M+ lifetime payouts in its bio and was live-streaming the NY session on 18 September.
Original context
When we first covered the launch the help center still showed the higher figure. The reduction is now confirmed on Tradeify’s own competition site and independent coverage. If you already registered, nothing about scoring, eligibility or the live final changes.
Our Take: $1M is still a serious free competition. The format change from pure P&L leaderboards to head-to-head plus points is the more interesting part for traders who want something closer to consistent performance measurement. Read the full guide before you treat any single match as make-or-break.
