# Why Relative Scoring

To minimize the impact of overall market crashes or booms, we can introduce a **relative performance scoring** system.

#### 🧠 **Logic:**

* Calculate **league average return**.
* Then compute your portfolio’s **outperformance vs average**.
* Score = `(Your Return – League Avg Return) × 10` *(or scaled)*

This ensures someone can **still win** even during a market crash—if their team performs *less badly* than others.

#### 🔍 **Example:**

* Market drops 10% overall.
* Your team drops only 6% → you outperformed by 4%.
* Your Score = `4 × 10 = 40 points`.
