How the Competition Works
Participants first need to register through the Traders Trust trading competition page and verify their email address.
After registration, participants receive an assigned VIP demo account with a $10,000 virtual balance. Trading activity on this account is used to calculate the participant’s percentage return.
Only trades executed during the official competition period from August 1 through August 31, 2026 count toward the final ranking.
Automated trading through Expert Advisors is permitted. Traders Trust may disqualify trading strategies that are considered abusive, based on latency, or designed around arbitrage or quote abuse.
Eligibility Requirements
Participants must be at least 18 years old or meet the requirements for opening a live account with Traders Trust.
The competition is limited to traders located in eligible Latin American countries and Japan.
Each person can register only once. Multiple accounts or profiles may result in disqualification.
Employees of Traders Trust, its affiliates and partners, along with certain family members and close associates, are not eligible.
Participants must provide accurate registration information. False or incorrect information can lead to disqualification.
Trading Rules
All competition trades must be placed through the assigned demo account.
Hedging between accounts, matching IP activity between participants, arbitrage and quote-abuse trading can result in disqualification.
Participants with a negative percentage return are not eligible for prizes, regardless of their position in the ranking.
Traders Trust can reject or disqualify participants involved in fraudulent or unfair trading practices.
Winner Notification
Winners are expected to be contacted through their registered email address within approximately seven days after the competition ends.
A winner must respond and complete the required steps within approximately seven days after being contacted. Failure to complete the required process may result in the prize being forfeited.
Winners who do not already have a Traders Trust live trading account may need to register one and complete the required KYC verification before receiving the trading credits.
Forfeited prizes may be reassigned to another eligible participant or cancelled at the discretion of Traders Trust.
Important Points for Participants
The competition uses a demo account, so the performance achieved during the contest may not represent the results that could be achieved in live trading.
The available leverage is up to 1:3000, which is significantly higher than leverage commonly available in many live trading environments. High leverage can increase both potential gains and potential losses.
Because the ranking is based on percentage return, traders may be encouraged to take larger risks in an attempt to achieve a higher position on the leaderboard.
Regional eligibility is important because the competition is specifically limited to eligible LATAM countries and Japan.
Prize recipients may need to open a live account and complete KYC before the trading credits can be provided.
Before participating, traders should review the current official competition terms because competition rules and eligibility requirements can change.
Regulatory Information
The competition information states that Traders Trust operates through entities including Traders Trust Ltd, incorporated in Seychelles and regulated by the Seychelles Financial Services Authority under the stated licence, and TTCM Traders Capital Limited, incorporated in Bermuda.
The regulatory framework and level of investor protection can differ between jurisdictions. Traders should consider the applicable entity, regulatory status and account terms before opening or funding a live trading account.
Risk Disclaimer
Trading forex, metals, indices, commodities and cryptocurrency CFDs on margin involves a high level of risk and can result in the loss of invested capital.
This competition is conducted using a demo account, and results from simulated trading do not guarantee similar results in a live trading environment.
Participants should confirm their regional eligibility, review the complete competition terms and understand the risks before taking part.
