LiteForex introduces a rather unique real trading contest — "Feel the Spread" — a Forex contest where traders try to trade as much volume as possible, paying as little spread as possible. It's a weekly contest that runs every Tuesday from 00:00 till 23:59. Floating Spread account is required to participate in it. Traders are rated by the sum of order volumes divided by the average spread paid for a given order (average spread is determined as the sum of the spreads on opening and closing divided by 2). Top 7 participants get the following prizes:
- $300
- $200
- $150
- $100
- $50
- $50
- $50
- $50
The bonus funds can be used and withdrawn without any restrictions.
You decide to participate in the "Feel the Spread" contest and already have a Floating Spread account. During the course of the contest you open and close 5 positions:
- EUR/USD 2 lots, open spread 2 pips, closing spread 2.8 pips.
- GBP/USD 1.8 lots, open spread 2.9 pips, closing spread 2.8 pips.
- USD/JPY 2.3 lots, open spread 1.5 pips, closing spread 1.5 pips.
- EUR/USD 1 lot, open spread 2.1 pips, closing spread 3.2 pips.
- EUR/USD 2.4 lots, open spread 1.9 pips, closing spread 2 pips.
Your total result is 2 / ((2 + 2.8) / 2) + 1.8 / ((2.9 + 2.8) / 2) + 2.3 / ((1.5 + 1.5) / 2) + 1 / ((2.1 + 3.2) / 2) + 2.4 / ((1.9 + 2) / 2) = 4.6.
Disregarding the profit or loss from your trades, this qualifies you for the 5th place and a cash prize of $50.
All trading instruments except CFD for NYSE stocks can be used during the contest.
All trading methods and strategies are allowed if they don't contradict the usual Terms and Conditions.
