Lock time: Ranked picks are locked server-side before the next US market open. The countdown on Play is the deadline.

Eligible tickers: Pickfolio v1 uses US-listed individual equities only. ETFs, crypto, commodities, and non-US equities are not eligible yet.

Market holidays: If the US market is closed, picks roll to the next valid open session.

Data provider: Ranked scoring uses backend price data through Pickfolio's Supabase Edge Functions.

Scoring source: Ranked scores use adjusted close data from Alpha Vantage, calculated server-side after market close.

Data delays: Pickfolio does not promise real-time prices. Scores may settle after market close when provider data updates.

Scoring formula: Daily PnL is the paper percentage change for the locked ticker during its scoring session. Monthly PnL is the average of completed daily results.

Ties: Monthly PnL ranks first, then completed picks, highest streak, then earliest final locked pick.

Month reset: Public leaderboards reset monthly. Signed-in history remains in archives.

Prizes: Prize rules will be posted before a prize season starts. Only eligible signed-in ranked players can qualify.

Disqualifications: Duplicate accounts, bots, edited or late picks, abusive behavior, data manipulation, or suspicious activity can remove a player from ranked results and prizes.

Not financial advice: Pickfolio is a paper portfolio game, not investment advice, research, or a recommendation to buy or sell securities.
