If anyone is looking for a demo account from a broker offering all metals and doesn't require you to login to their site, give your email, etc. easyMarkets seems okay so far. I won't know until next week's contest, but at least they offer all precious metals and copper. It's worth a shot. I also found that Vantage might be a good demo to use. Server for demo is VantagePrime-Demo.

Jay, I had some ideas for you.

  1. Make a rule that says you can't apply a start date to the Trade Explorer within the current week of the contest. Prevents gaming.
  2. Participants gain entry by posting their demo account number for the demo they're using. Once the account number is posted, we don't have to worry about anybody trading multiple accounts and using the best one for the contest.
  3. When a participant posts a demo acct number for entry, it has to have no open trades, or trades taking place in current contest week.

Sounds good JayBag. I will help any way I can think of.

Quick question, leverage matters since US traders may not be able to get as high as others. Do you think this matters? After thinking some on it. I don't. US guys can get demo accounts with high leverage, it just takes a little searching. Plus, maybe that's part of the game.

Like fixed starting balance and time, though a week is very small time, may do with fixed lots and numbers of trades with fixed spreads if possible. Thanks
Not understand?better not follow my analyses!doubt clearer first, risks ++

Much appreciated

I think US traders can easily find a demo broker just outside the states or like the ones you suggested earlier on..

will gather more and update at once definitely before the new week

Hey Fontu,

The start amount is $10k which is fixed.
I'd like to think alot can happen within a week.

since judgement will be based on balance at the end of the week, lot size won't really matter..

Yup. IFC, Vantage, and EasyMarkets just to name a few. Plenty more out there. Let me know how I can help. Otherwise, I'll be getting ready for NFP.

Blowing up your demo shows you were in it to win it. We have to healthy competition brewing. Will Ef5 be back next week for another run at the weekly title? I hope so!

So, I am new to trading and came across this forum by chance. I'd like to get in on the demo contest - but one thing is not clear to me. We are opening a new demo account and Trade Explorer each week of the contest prior to Friday for the following week? Do I have that right?
If in doubt, paddle out!

You need a demo account connected to Trade Explorer. But remember that you can't have open positions. You need to start the week fresh. Posting your account number to this thread ensures that you don't change accounts or get a new one. It protects us against any funny business. Don't forget to set the initial balance to $10k and post the account number. I'm pretty sure that's it.

Well, I got my feet wet on XAUUSD this week surrounding NFP. Let's hope I can bottle up a little bit of that magic next week. Looking forward to the competition gang. Those two small orders were fat fingers on MT4.
