Boca Raton, United States, June 16, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Deal pairs the futures prop firm’s funded accounts with ChartChamps’ ranked, Elo-scored practice arena, five days after Tradeify crowned its $1 million Grand Cup 2 champion
Futures prop firm Tradeify on Wednesday announced it has acquired ChartChamps.com, a competitive trading platform where traders face off in live, Elo-ranked matches on historical market data. Terms of the deal were not disclosed. ChartChamps will continue to operate under its own name.
ChartChamps turns trading practice into a sport. Traders face off in real-time, one-on-one matches on randomly selected historical data spanning bull, bear and sideways conditions, with global leaderboards, bracket and group tournaments, daily challenges, match replays and TradingView charting built in. All competition is simulated; no real money is traded. The platform also runs a rule-based prop-firm mode that mirrors evaluation conditions, including profit targets and drawdown limits.
The acquisition completes a pipeline Tradeify has been building since the first Grand Cup in 2025: practice competitively, compete for real prizes and trade firm capital. Tradeify’s Grand Cup 2: Outlaws, a free-to-enter simulated tournament with a $1 million prize pool, drew a five-day open qualifier and a 1,024-trader single-elimination bracket before its June 5 championship. ChartChamps gives that competitive format a permanent, year-round home.
“Tournaments showed us that traders want to compete, not just pass evaluations. ChartChamps is where that competition lives every day of the year, and the traders who rise up its leaderboards are exactly the traders we want trading our capital,” said Brett Simberkoff, CEO of Tradeify.
ChartChamps remains free to use, with an optional Premium tier.
