Traders Challenge is a trading game where traders themselves are bought and sold. The goal is to achieve economic growth and that shows in a traders’s Value, Cash, Assets and finally in Promotion to next level. If you are more of a social player, or a collector, or love to build great looking walls, Leagues offer different paths to success.
Promotion of a Trader to the next level is something you have to be worthy of and earn it! Promotions will be expensive and granted by a fellow trader who will have to pay big cash for your promotion. Therefore reputation and interaction are keywords. Networking, making friends and teamwork may speed up your gameplay.
You and all other players are always for sale and how you market yourself is the key to succes!
You start at...

There you will find a buy button, several options to interact with the trader, see Traders gift wall, feed and badges, leave a message and/or get attention.
At your own profilepage you will find quick links to see your message wall, gifts/feed/badges and your buy window.
Traders can customise their own profile page to their liking, reflecting who they wish to be in this game. There will be even prizes and badges to be won for best wall.

Being bought raises your value with 100k and you earn 50k cash. The buyer pays your current value + 100k + 10k tax. The seller receives your value + 50k profit.
The buy window shows instant update of value, cash and owner during buying and offers a chat window for traders who are attending the buying process.
A trader can receive an assignment every 24 hours from his/her owner. When the Assignment is fullfilled the issuing owner and the involved trader will receive a cash reward. If a trader gets sold during an active assignment, the parties in the assignment stay the same, but, depending on it's contents, the target of the assignment might not.
Owners get notified of which traders can be handed new assignments on the dashboard.
If a trader is active in the gameplay a daily paycheck will be granted the next day, at 9am (gmt+1).
