Build a verified track record.
Earn your shot at allocation.

FundSeeder helps serious traders turn trading history into a performance profile built for tracking, comparison, ranking, and potential allocation review.

Add your strategy, connect or sync eligible data, and build the record needed to evaluate performance with confidence.

Step 1

Add your strategy

Start by adding the trading strategy you want FundSeeder to track.

You can connect a supported brokerage, use Email Sync, or upload trading data manually to begin building your performance profile.

Strategies connected through supported brokerage data or eligible Email Sync can qualify for verification, public ranking, and review consideration when ranking requirements are met.

Manual uploads let you access performance insights and compare your results privately, but manually updated strategies are not verified and are not publicly ranked.

Step 2

Build your performance profile

Once your strategy data is added, FundSeeder turns your trading history into a performance profile built around the metrics that matter.

Track return, volatility, drawdown, consistency, risk-adjusted performance, and ranking history over time without relying on spreadsheets or self-reported stats.

Step 3

Benchmark your results

Performance means more when it has context.

FundSeeder helps you see how your strategy compares against other traders across the platform using consistent metrics and trusted data standards.

See where your strategy is improving, where risk is concentrated, and how your results stack up across a growing universe of performance-driven traders.

Step 4

Qualify for ranking and review

FundSeeder’s leaderboard highlights traders who meet ranking criteria and demonstrate disciplined, repeatable performance.

To be officially ranked, traders must:

  • Trade with a supported brokerage
  • Maintain at least $5,000 in the account
  • Have 120 trading days of daily performance data
  • Complete their strategy settings
  • Keep strategy data current

Strong ranking performance can lead to deeper quantitative and qualitative review. Selected traders may be considered for allocation opportunities through FundSeeder and RQSI.

How does FundSeeder identify top trading talent?

keyboard_arrow_down

FundSeeder uses objective, data-driven analytics to evaluate trading performance. Our quantitative assessment is centered on the FundSeeder Score which is calculated using the following components:

  • The Probabilistic Sharpe Ratio developed by David H. Bailey and Marcos Lopez de Prado in “The Sharpe Ratio Efficient Frontier”.
  • Accounts with an expected one-year-forward maximum drawdown of less than 15% are rewarded.
  • Return distributions with “heavy tails" are penalized.
  • Traders are rewarded when their most recent performance is consistent with their total performance.
  • All things being equal, traders with longer trading history will be preferred to those with shorter history.

The platform focuses on identifying traders who demonstrate skill over luck, with an emphasis on disciplined, repeatable and uncorrelated strategies.
