🏆 What Are Contests?
Contests let you practice trading for free, compete with others, and win real prizes for your live trading account — all in a fun and risk-free way!
Everyone starts on equal footing, and to keep it fair, we follow a few simple rules.
✅ How to Join
Each contest has a limit:
Weekly Contest: up to 3,000 participants
Grand Competition: up to 5,000 participants
When you join a contest, you get a free pre-funded account just for that contest.
All participants start with the same balance.
You can’t rejoin or reset your contest account after joining — one try per contest!
📝 The leaderboard only shows traders from the same contest as you.
📊 Trading Conditions
All trading conditions (leverage, fees, margin) are just like a real account.
To check contract details for each asset, go to ‘Fees and Conditions’ in your account menu.
🏁 How to Qualify for a Prize
To win 1st, 2nd, or 3rd place and receive a prize, you’ll need to meet the contest’s qualification rules.
Most contests ask for:
A minimum number of trades
A minimum turnover
💡 Keep in mind:
Opening a trade counts toward both.
Closing a trade increases your turnover only.
If a trade is still open when the contest ends, the unrealized profit/loss is included in your total.
⚠️ If you place in the top 3 but don’t meet the qualification rules, you won’t be eligible for a prize — so always check the rules first!
You can see them anytime by clicking ‘View’ on the contest page or through ‘My Contests’.
🎁 Prizes
Each contest has its own prize pool, split between winners based on their final ranking.
Qualified winners get their prize as a promo code via email within 1–2 business days.
Apply the code to your live account to get a tradeable bonus.
💰 You can’t withdraw the bonus itself, but you can withdraw any profit you make with it!
If you haven't received your prize after distribution, don't hesitate to reach out to us anytime!
🔐 A Few More Things
In rare cases, we may ask winners to verify their account before awarding a prize.
Contest rules may change from time to time.
