Does Trading Competitions Really Get the Best Out of You?

I’ve always heard complaints about exchange trading comps — unfair rules, bots dominating, or hidden conditions. Decided to test it myself.
Joined a small trading challenge 3 months ago and ended up winning $100. Tried again later and won $250. Not life-changing, but encouraging enough.

From this little experience, I picked up 3 lessons:

1. Don’t judge until you’ve actually tried.

2. Some comps do provide a fairer playing field.

3. Pick competitions that match your category and strength.

Curiousto know if anyone else here had similar or opposite experiences with trading comps?
