The launch of TradeFight, a new social gambling platform, brings together gambling and financial trading by allowing players to challenge one another and bet on real financial data.

TradeFight

TradeFight offers three different games based on live feeds from the financial markets; Trade Fight, Speed Trade and the soon-to-be-launched The Predictor.

Trade Fight sees players challenge each other to a head-to-head contest, with players having five minutes to trade in a live market with $1,000 in virtual cash. The player with the highest sum after five minutes wins the fight and the bet.

Speed Trade is based on the market movements in the next 30 seconds, requiring the player to think fast and trust their instinct with the initial stake starting from as little at €0.50. The Predictor will be a three-reel, three-line slot with a progressive jackpot.

TradeFight COO, Afshin R Ertanin, said: “I have never worked with anything like this.

“The platform is one of a kind, creating a desire for something different from the usual gaming offerings and also creating simple and fun games based on the financial markets, furthering its unique offering.”
