What is the Nostra score?
A 0 to 100 rating of a trader’s skill, re-scored every week.
Definition
The Nostra score is a 0 to 100 rating of a Polymarket trader’s track record, built from public data and re-scored every week.
In more detail
It weighs win rate (35%), return on money staked (25%), months finished in profit (20%), how many resolved positions it rests on (10%) and total realised profit (10%).
Traders need at least 30 resolved positions to be ranked, so one lucky bet can’t top the list. A score describes past results and doesn’t predict future ones.
How Nostra uses it
Every trader page, leaderboard and smart group in Nostra uses the score.
