At Darwinex we offer an ecosystem for Traders to list their strategies as indices, with verified track-records. We seed and expose indices to investors worldwide. Our Exchange lists your trading strategy as an investable index. Our technology packages your track-record and live trades as an index with its own ticker. We call indices “DARWINs”. DARWINs replicate your performance without revealing your trades, which protects your intellectual property. They’re also apples-to-apples comparable for risk, which makes the DARWIN Exchange a level-playing environment for seed and investor capital.
We Seed Top Trading Talent
We seed 150 strategies with up to €10 million every month and commit our allocation for 6 months. Our Seed Allocation Programme, DarwinIA, uses innovative algorithms, publishing standings and rank criteria for participants to benchmark against each other. We seed the best performers and pay 15% of profits.
Your Index Attracts Capital while you Trade
We attract investors to all indices on the Exchange. Investors “buy” indices to replicate their trades. We collect fees and pay DARWIN providers, who don't need to be regulated. We do not disclose the live trades of an index to investors. This means they can’t re-sell your intellectual property or back your index without paying full fees. We've paid $3.8M+ in success fees so far. The higher indices rank on our Hall of Fame, the more visible they become to thousands of individual and professional investors.
