The "Legendary Trading Arena 2026" competition, spanning over three months, attracted thousands of investors nationwide. Unlike many platforms that use simulated accounts, this contest required participants to trade with real accounts, reflecting genuine market engagement. The total prize pool for the entire program was nearly 2,8 billion dong, with the grand prize category alone valued at nearly 843 million dong.
Throughout the season, the organizers awarded thousands of welcome prizes worth 150,000 dong, hundreds of "outstanding new investor" awards, and weekly prizes ranging from 200,000 dong to 3 million dong for those who met specific category requirements.
At the awards ceremony held in TP HCM, top prizes, including a VinFast VF3 car, a Honda SH160i Sport Edition, a Honda SH Mode, an iPhone 17 Pro Max, and cash prizes up to 30 million dong, were presented to the winning investors.

The organizers stated that the awards presented at the 25/6 event were for investors who competed based on actual investment performance. This criterion reflected each individual's portfolio management skills, risk control ability, and discipline amidst market fluctuations.
Speaking at the event, Mr. Han Bokhee, General Director of Shinhan Securities Vietnam, said the program's goal extended beyond merely organizing a competition. It aimed to create a professional arena for investors to test strategies, develop mental resilience, and gain practical experience.

Beyond the recognition, the event also provided an opportunity for investors to meet, network, and openly share their competition journey, pivotal investment decisions, and emotions upon becoming recipients of valuable prizes.
According to the organizers, this season saw participation from diverse groups of investors across various ages and professions, ranging from market newcomers to those with many years of experience.
Many young investors noted that if they had been more decisive at certain times when the market signals were clear, they could have achieved better results. Nevertheless, the competition offered a real-world experience, helping them gain experience, refine strategies, and improve portfolio management skills for future investment decisions.
In contrast, many experienced investors adopted cautious strategies, dedicating time to research companies, development prospects, business results, and long-term growth potential before allocating capital. They believed thorough preparation was a factor in improving investment performance and achieving breakthroughs on the leaderboard.

Many new investors stated that through "Legendary Trading Arena", they had the opportunity to experience Shinhan Securities Vietnam's trading system, including the online trading website online.shinhansec.com.vn and the San Xin Ha application. "The trading platform's fast processing speed, stable operation, and many useful investment features made my investment process more convenient and effective," shared Thanh Hung.
A representative from Shinhan Securities Vietnam stated that the competition was part of its strategy to develop an investor ecosystem through products, policies, and trading support activities. In the future, the company will continue to develop solutions to enhance the investor experience and accompany them in the market.
