Faction Trade has seven chat channels. Some are open to everyone, while others require a minimum rank to access. This creates tiered communities where traders at similar levels can connect.

How channel access works
- Channels you can access appear normally in the sidebar
- Channels you have not unlocked yet show a lock icon and cannot be entered
- Access is based on your current point total — as you earn points, new channels automatically unlock
- If you meet the rank requirement, the channel unlocks immediately with no manual action needed
Unlocking channels
Earn points through three activities:
- Trading volume — every trade earns volume points
- Realized PnL — profitable trades earn PnL points
- Social activity — participating in chat earns social points
See earning points for details on how each point type works.
