* **Diversification Requirement:** Minimum 1, Maximum 4 from each major category:
  * Crypto
  * Stocks

* **Scoring Model:** Relative scoring only

***

#### Scoring: Relative Performance System

Pro Mode uses **relative scoring** to ensure fairness, competitiveness, and skill expression—regardless of broader market trends.

**Formula:**\
**Score = (Your Portfolio Return – League Average Return) × 100**

This model ranks players by their **performance against the field**, not just raw returns. It ensures that contests remain meaningful whether markets are up, down, or flat.

**Example:**

* Your return: +2.8%
* League average: +1.1%
* Score = (2.8 – 1.1) × 100 = **+170 points**

> A player with a −1% return could still place in the top 10% if the league average was −4%.

***

#### Power-Ups (Optional League Features)

Power-ups introduce tactical decisions and risk mitigation without undermining the skill-based scoring:

* **Captain Asset** – One asset earns 1.5× score
* **Hedge Card** – Reduce impact of worst-performing asset by 50%
* **Streak Bonus** – Earn bonus points if 3+ assets gain more than 5%
* **Volatility Penalty** – Apply deductions for high-drawdown assets in select leagues

Power-ups must be selected before the league starts or during the rebalance window, where permitted.

***

#### Rebalancing Mechanics

* One portfolio rebalance allowed per league
* Rebalancing must still adhere to core rules (max 20% per asset, 100% total, category coverage)
* Allows players to adapt to macro events, earnings cycles, or news volatility mid-league

***

#### Why It Matters

Pro Mode is not about picking the most obvious winners—it's about **risk-adjusted outperformance**. Players must optimize asset mix, time entry, and diversify across sectors to beat the average.

This mode simulates professional fund management in a competitive format, rewarding:

* Insightful allocation
* Tactical flexibility
* Consistent outperformance relative to peers
