What is the TopFX Demo Trading Competition?
The TopFX Demo Trading Competition is a contest organized by TopFX in which participants trade Synthetic Indices on a
demo account — using virtual funds — for a chance to win real cash prizes.
Because it uses a demo account, there is no risk of real capital loss — you’re trading with virtual funds. This makes
it attractive for both beginners who want to practice, and more advanced traders who want to test strategies under contest conditions.
Prizes & Reward Structure
The total prize pool for the current competition is USD $5,000.
- Synthetics Champion: $2,000 cash + VIP account upgrade + TopFX merchandise — awarded to the trader with the highest trade score (profit % + volume) across all synthetic indices. :
- Bi-weekly Performance Prizes: $500 cash (plus VIP upgrade) awarded to top profit-making traders during each two-week interval.
- Lucky Draw Prizes: $500 cash awarded randomly to eligible participants at two draw points (mid-competition and at the end).
- Top Strategy Award: $500 cash + lifetime VIP trading conditions for the best submitted trading-strategy video.
