Fx2Fund runs a weekly trading contest. You pay a $20 entry fee, get a $100,000 account on the Fx2Fund web terminal, and trade for one week. Every entry fee is pooled — 75% becomes prize money — and the top 20 finishers are paid out at the end of the week, with 1st place taking 20% of the pool and 2nd place taking 10%.

A flat $20 per contest. There are no subscriptions and no other fees. 75% of every entry fee — $15 of every $20 — goes into that week's prize pool. The other 25% runs the platform: live market data, servers, payment processing, support and development.

The prize pool is exactly 75% of the entry fees collected that week — $15 out of every $20 entry. It is not topped up and there is no guaranteed minimum, so it grows with the field: at the 1,650-contestant cap the pool reaches $24,750. The pool is split among the top 20 finishers on a fixed tiered curve weighted toward the podium: 1st place takes 20% ($4,950 at a full field), 2nd place 10% ($2,475), and 3rd place ~8.7% (~$2,143). The remaining ~61% spreads across ranks 4-20, so rank 20 still wins ~$371. Rank 21 and below finish on the board but win no prize.

It is simple — make the most profit with the lowest risk. You are not ranked on raw profit alone; you are ranked on your R:R Rating, which weighs how much you gained against how far your account fell along the way (your maximum drawdown). For example: Trader A finishes the week up 30%, but his account swung 25% into the red getting there. Trader B finishes up 20%, never dropping more than 5%. Trader A made the bigger gain — but Trader B wins, because B grew the account strongly without the wild risk. Steady, controlled trading beats reckless gambling. Two rules keep it honest: no single trade may account for more than half of your total profit, so you cannot win on a single lucky bet — and you must close at least one trade to be eligible for a prize.

No. You don't risk any real money and you don't need an account anywhere else. As soon as you enter, you get a fresh $100,000 account on Fx2Fund's own web trading terminal — everyone competes on an identical account.

Share your referral link. When a friend enters using it, they get 3% off when they add funds (about $0.60 on a $20 entry), and you earn a 3% commission on what your referrals fund — for life. The prize pool is never reduced by referrals. Your referral link lives in the Affiliate tab inside your dashboard after you sign up.

Entry fees fund the prize pool, so they are generally non-refundable once a contest begins. If a contest is cancelled before it starts, entries are refunded in full. Read our full Refund Policy for details.

Click Trade in your dashboard, or go straight to fx2fund.com/terminal.html while signed in. The terminal runs in any browser on phone, tablet or desktop — nothing to download, and no separate login, password or server to copy. You get live prices, market, limit and stop orders, stop loss and take profit, and partial closes.

Your R:R Rating — short for reward-to-risk — is the single score that decides the leaderboard. It weighs how much profit you made against how far your account fell along the way (your maximum drawdown). Higher is better. For example, a trader who finishes up 25% with only a 6% drawdown out-ranks one who finishes up 40% but had a 35% drawdown — the first earned a strong return with far less risk. Your R:R Rating updates live on the leaderboard all week, so you always know exactly where you stand.

No. The contest is open to everyone aged 18 and over, from complete beginners to seasoned pros. You trade a risk-free demo account, so it is a safe place to learn and test yourself. Prizes do go to skill — the better you manage your trades and control your drawdown, the higher your R:R Rating — but many traders use their first few contests purely to practise and find their feet.

No. All trading is done manually in the Fx2Fund web terminal — there is no API for bots or Expert Advisors, and MetaTrader is not used. Everyone gets the same tools, which keeps the contest a pure test of trading skill. The one extra rule that applies to everybody: no single trade may account for more than half of your total profit.

The terminal offers the major forex pairs (EURUSD, GBPUSD, USDJPY, USDCHF, AUDUSD, USDCAD, EURGBP, EURJPY, GBPJPY), gold and silver, Brent oil and natural gas, the major indices (US100 Nasdaq, US500 S&P 500, JP225 Nikkei) and crypto (BTC, ETH, SOL, XRP, LTC, DOGE, ADA). Leverage is 1:100 on the account, capped at 1:100 for forex, 1:50 for metals and indices, 1:20 for energy and 1:10 for crypto. Forex, metals, energy and indices trade Monday to Friday and close at the weekend; crypto trades 24/7, so you can keep trading all week.

Each contest runs for one calendar week — Sunday 00:00 UTC to Saturday 23:59 UTC. You can enter (and join a contest already in progress) right up until entries close on Wednesday at 23:59 UTC. After that the field is locked — no new entrants — and everyone trades on to Saturday's close, when winners are settled and prizes paid.

No. It is a skill-based contest. You trade a demo account — no real market capital is at stake — and winners are decided by risk-adjusted trading performance against objective, published rules. You must be 18 or older to enter.

When the contest ends and prizes are paid, demo accounts are closed — but your full trade history and performance metrics are saved permanently, so you can review every past contest from your dashboard.

Prizes are credited to your Fx2Fund wallet as soon as the contest is scored. You can withdraw your winnings in crypto from your dashboard at any time.

No — every contestant gets exactly one $100,000 demo account per contest, no exceptions. This keeps Fx2Fund a pure skill match: no one can buy a bigger chance to win by entering multiple times. Your $20 buys you one shot, against the same field, with the same starting balance as everyone else. You can enter again every week with a fresh account, and you can reserve a seat in next week's contest while the current one is still running.

No — and we would rather be straight about it than advertise a floor we would have to fund from somewhere. The pool is exactly 75% of the entry fees collected that week, with no top-up, so it rises and falls with the size of the field. In practice the field is large: a typical week draws well over a thousand entries, which puts the pool in the $20,000-$24,750 range, and the full 1,650-seat cap pays $24,750. Because the split is a fixed percentage, you can always work out the pool yourself: entries × $20 × 75%.

75% of every entry fee — $15 of every $20 — goes straight into the prize pool. The other 25% ($5 per entry) runs the platform: live market data, servers, payment processing, customer support and development. Keeping that split fixed and published means you can always check the pool yourself — no hidden margin, and no top-up we would have to pretend to fund.

You can never lose money of your own — the contest account is a demo, funded with virtual capital. If your account drops sharply or you "blow" it, you simply finish with a low R:R Rating and won't place high enough to reach the paid ranks that week. There is no penalty, no debt, and no effect on anything else — you can enter again next week with a fresh $100,000 account and a clean slate.

Every trader competes on an identical $100,000 account under the exact same published rules. The leaderboard is scored from trade data recorded by the Fx2Fund platform itself — never from anything a trader reports about themselves — and the same R:R Rating formula is applied to everyone, with no exceptions. The board refreshes hourly so you can watch it move in real time, and your full trade history is saved to your dashboard so every result can be checked.

So the contest is pure skill — and pure upside. Your account is a simulated account on live market prices, so your results reflect genuine trading ability. But because the capital is virtual, you can never lose money of your own — the only thing you ever pay is the $20 entry. You get the full challenge of real trading and a real shot at cash prizes, without ever risking your own funds.
