Arena · the currency
Ticks: the FTS Arena currency
A tick is the smallest price move of a futures contract. In the Arena, it is the currency that dresses up your game: chart themes, frames, nickname colours, reactions. You earn them by playing, indicator subscribers get some every month, and you can buy them. They never buy a place on a leaderboard.
- Earned by playing
- Given monthly to subscribers
- Style only, never a score
- They never expire
How to earn Ticks
By playing, at your own pace. Earned Ticks are scarce on purpose: enough to treat yourself now and then.
- Every level reached60 Ticks at level 12, double when entering a tier
- The week’s 3 missions50 Ticks, on top of the ◆ and the XP
- Indicator subscribers300 Ticks every month while the subscription runs
- Packsto buy, if you want to go faster
What about XP?
XP raises your level, and every level gives Ticks. It rewards practice and discipline, never the result in R: a losing session played cleanly earns more than a winning one taken off-setup.

Frequently asked questions
Do Ticks help me win?
No, never. They only buy style (themes, frames, colours, reactions) and analyses to improve. Leaderboards are played on the same candles for everyone, and scores are recomputed by our servers.
Do Ticks expire?
No. The ones you earn, buy or get each month stay on your account.
Do I need an account?
Yes: Ticks are kept on your Arena account, which is your email (a link signs you in, no password). That is how you find them on your phone and your computer.
I paid with another email address
Ticks are credited to the payment’s address. Write to us from the contact page and we will move them to your account.
FTS Arena games train on past data: nothing is invested, nothing is a trading signal or a promise of results. Ticks have no value outside the games and cannot be exchanged for money.
