Weekly capital re-rating

Earned capital can grow. Starting capital is the floor.

Every strategy starts with the same theoretical minimum allocation.

Each week, the competition may increase, maintain, or reduce the theoretical capital assigned to a strategy based on the quality of its results and its risk behavior. This re-rating is part of the competition design and is intended to reflect how professional capital is evaluated over time.

The exact sizing formula is not public. What is public is the principle:

Because strategies are submitted in portfolio terms, participants are not expected to change their signal-generation logic when capital is re-rated.
