As the name implies, the score multiplier is a condition to multiply the trading account's gain (%) by positive factors, as a result, increasing the score earned in a contest.

For example, a "×2" multiplier means that the score at genesis will double when grading.

Multipliers are determined based on the beginning balance of the trading account. They're expressed as both integers (×2, ×3, ×5, etc.) and fractions (with maximum of 2 decimals like ×0.15, ×0.25, ×0.35 etc.)

In general, having a high score multiplier is pretty vital for a trader seeking final prize, as a result of high rank.
